Pump.fun adds support for tokens launched on rival memecoin generators and other non-native assets

The Block
Solana memecoin launchpad Pump.fun now supports tokens from rival platforms and major assets like wBTC and wETH.

Summary

Solana-based memecoin launchpad Pump.fun has expanded its mobile app functionality to support tokens created on rival Solana token launchpads, such as Raydium and Meteora. This integration also includes major assets like Wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC) and Wrapped Ethereum (wETH), bridged via Wormhole, alongside established tokens like Gigachad (GIGA) and PENGU. Pump stated this move aims to create a lower-friction, higher-functionality trading app, satisfying user demand to trade and hold more assets without leaving the platform. This expansion aligns with a broader trend where mature crypto platforms are evolving into all-in-one trading hubs. Pump.fun, which pioneered blockchain-based memecoins on Solana, remains a dominant and reportedly profitable platform, recently launching its native PUMP token.
