Pump.fun’s record revenue followed the Solana-based protocol’s adoption by degens who continued building on the platform. This makes Solana’s Pump.fun a great “trojan horse” for consumer adoption of blockchains, as Watkins said in his X post on September 2.

Revenue is only one metric important for measuring success, as active addresses interacting with Pump’s contracts are also important.

Data from Dune reveals that September 2 recorded over 40,000 active addresses with more than 18,000 new addresses.
