Pump.fun opens trading on Ethereum, Base and BNB Chain

The launchpad now routes trades across EVM networks from one wallet, using SOL as the funding asset and sponsoring gas on supported chains.

One wallet, several chains

The mechanics are the headline. According to CoinMarketCap, the Pump.fun app now lets users trade tokens on Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain and other EVM networks while funding from a single wallet with SOL β€” no bridging ritual, no scavenging for native gas tokens, because the platform sponsors gas on supported chains.

That turns a Solana-native launchpad into something closer to a chain-agnostic trading front end. It also reduces the company's dependence on the Solana memecoin cycle, which has been the single variable driving its revenue since 2024.

  • Trade Ethereum, Base and BNB Chain assets from the Pump.fun app
  • SOL as the funding asset across supported networks
  • Gas sponsored by the platform on supported EVM chains
  • No manual bridging step for the user

The market reaction

CoinMarketCap logged a 5.53% move in $PUMP on the announcement followed by a 4.13% pullback β€” textbook sell-the-news rather than a regime change. Social discussion at the time centred on the platform's buyback mechanics, with participants estimating weekly burns in the $8–12 million range; treat those as crowd estimates, not disclosed figures.

What it means for degens

Sponsored gas is a real edge for anyone who has ever missed an entry because they held the token but not the chain's gas asset. The flip side: a launchpad that trades everywhere competes with everyone, and the Solana-first liquidity advantage that made pump.fun launches worth sniping gets diluted the wider the net goes.
