So let me get this straight. Pumpfun pays a bunch of KOLs (you know the list) to hype up a kid for months that nobody heard about until this year Then they finally “onboard” him and extract all the liquidity from the trenches. Good game guys

Fellow trencher @WatcherGarou accidentally aped $85k into a low cap shitter on @Pumpfun and was instantly down >95%. Very sad to see. There should be an are you sure prompt added to the max buy button

The pairing that solana:6GmAFSYs4gk3FDao5FzzySQpPZaWsa4rUJHacpMpUNgx did was actually the worst thing that happened to the trenches and actually led to more PvP than ever. Now we have people claiming that pairings are wrong and memes need to be paired with x instead of y. Or this one isn’t paired correctly or has 1% rewards instead of 3%. Send it all to 0

I don’t call people retards on CT enough. Going to start doing that more

Give me one good reason to deploy on solana:6GmAFSYs4gk3FDao5FzzySQpPZaWsa4rUJHacpMpUNgx over solana:pumpCmXqMfrsAkQ5r49WcJnRayYRqmXz6ae8H7H9Dfn right now

Ah shit here we go again solana:GjMrz9j5Bt5Va1tsqfi71XpcqKAbhFoyPxw9CAzZpump

If solana:6GmAFSYs4gk3FDao5FzzySQpPZaWsa4rUJHacpMpUNgx doesn’t get their shit together quickly, they will end up like solana:DezXAZ8z7PnrnRJjz3wXBoRgixCa6xjnB7YaB1pPB263

I hate the trenches

The best investment @Pumpfun ever made to solidify their supremacy was the pumpfun app. Most developers are not thinking like the normie. The normie is not at their computer all the time or wants to utilize the complicated phantom wallet. You can make the fanciest launchpad there is but if you don’t make it conveniently accessed, you will get crushed long term. You may steal some market share temporarily with fancy new tech, but once that same tech becomes more easily accessible to the consumer by an easy to use app like the pumpfun app, you will get crushed and slowly cease to maintain relevancy. Welcome to capitalism. Impress the consumer or someone else will do it better

My thoughts today on @LaunchOnSF and the $stonk ecosystem for anyone who wants to read it: As someone who has been in the space since 2016 and have seen the rise and fall of many blockchains/platforms/etc. The spaces moves so quickly and it’s hard to compete with already established entitities with lots of resources and money. Thorough planning and strategy are needed at all times to stay relevant and capture attention as the market continuously changes. I think what’s kept pumpfun relevant during this whole early bull cycle is that they have a social mobile trading app. At first when they launched it, I think people thought they were crazy. Why would I use this many people asked themselves. In fact, I think it turned out to be their greatest investment. What the market has shown is that you can create 100 different launchpads, some extremely interesting with novel tech like agenc or higgspad or whatever, but if you’re not capturing trading volume through use of your platform, you’re not capturing the most efficient way to maintain attention. If you can’t trade easily on your platform for convenience, people are less inclined to use your launchpad. I believe that’s the main reason pump has survived for this long despite all the negativity and discourse you read on x about it. They are always quickly adapting and maintain a huge share of trading volume. They are the best at it. In fact when people were bullposting stonk at the highs, a huge percentage of the trading volume was made through people using the pump app. I also think that’s the reason fomo is still relevant despite the fact you cant launch anything on it as far as I’m aware.

Thank you @a1lon9 for agreeing with this statement. Looking forward to see how pump uses the new reward system to push further engagement into memes

I applaud @Pumpfun for their recent change on callout rewards. We have had too many bad actors over the past few months “control” the narrative of social trading across the platform and have clearly taken advantage of their status/privilege Callout rewards were originally intended to reward people for generating volume to the platform. Although it started out this way, bad actors then decided instead to use callouts to dump on their followers which is actually net negative to the platform as people are less likely to engage if they are going to get dumped on by the caller. Now, “KOLs” and those with a large following are forced to challenge themselves to keep engagement rather than take advantage of their followers. This will encourage longer term holding on coins as volume will then eventually push towards people who intend to bring coins to higher ceilings. Overall, a net positive for the platform and I think long term it will benefit the space.
