Pump.fun Launches Project Ascend With Market-Cap Tiered Fees, Promising Up to 10x Creator Earnings

The update targets sustainable growth by lowering creator costs as tokens scale, preserving protocol and LP economics.

Overview

  • Dynamic Fees V1 ties Creator Fees to market capitalization so smaller projects contribute more early while higher-cap tokens face lower fees.
  • The structure applies to all PumpSwap tokens, including existing projects, with Pump.fun claiming up to 10x higher earnings for creators.
  • Protocol and auto-compounding liquidity provider fee shares remain unchanged to keep trader and LP incentives intact.
  • Pump.fun says Community Takeover (CTO) applications for creator fee reassignment will be processed about 10x faster via an application link on X.
  • CryptoSlate reports the launch follows Pump.fun’s August revenue rebound and regained market share versus Bonkfun, alongside significant PUMP token purchases.
