The competition for the top spot in the Solana meme coin launchpad market has reached a critical moment. LetsBonk, a fast-growing platform for creating tokens, has now surpassed the previous leader, Pump.Fun, in daily token launches. According to reports , LetsBonk created 19,620 new Solana tokens in the past 24 hours, which is more than double the 9,249 tokens created by Pump.Fun. Competition Between Solana Meme Coin Launchpad Continues Notably, this marks the first time Pump.fun has relinquished its top position in the meme coin market. On Sunday, LetsBonk took 58.5% of the market share for Solana launchpads, while Pump.Fun had a market share of 35.2%. LetsBonk’s growth can be attributed to the popularity of viral meme tokens on its platform. The most notable is Useless Coin, which reached a market cap of $275.9 million. Following closely is Hosico Cat, another community-driven meme coin with a market cap of $69 million. Furthermore, Let’sBonk’s surge in token creation is due to its simple interface, lower fees, and strong marketing presence within the Solana ecosystem. It is worth noting that Solana is known for being one of the fastest and most scalable blockchains for regular users. As a result, competition between launchpads like LetsBonk and Pump.Fun is likely to flourish, promoting new ideas in the creation and launch of tokens. It is unclear if the current trend will continue or if Pump.Fun will make a comeback. However, one thing is clear: the competition among meme coin launchpads is not over yet. Pump.Fun Delays Public Token Sale Recall that the leading memecoin launchpad on the Solana blockchain delayed its public token sale, initially set for June 25. As reported by TheCoinRise, the event is scheduled to take place sometime this month, although a specific date hasn’t been announced—meanwhile, the Pump.Fun team has not explained why the sale was postponed. This, however, has caused concerns among investors and community members. The decentralized platform team has also not explained the legal issues causing the delay. In May, it was revealed that 98.6% of the tokens launched on Pump.Fun is linked to scams , such as rug pulls or pump-and-dump schemes. Pump.Fun’s drop-in token launches occurred when the launchpad began facing legal issues . Memecoin Market Cools Off The memecoin hype that fueled Pump.Fun’s rise has started sputtering. Rug pulls, like those seen in Libra have left retail investors wary. Likewise, interest in meme-tokens, such as Trump, has nosedived by over 90% from its January peak. While Solana remains a dominant player in the blockchain space, its heavy reliance on memecoins for network activity has exposed its vulnerability to speculative hype cycles.
