Pump.fun Launches $100M Referral Program + In-App Perps
Pump.fun is rolling out a massive $100M referral program funded by new app fees, plus enabling perpetuals trading in-app — a significant DeFi product expansion.
What we know
An account on X (Ansem) announced Pump.fun's plan to scale to 10 million users, anchored by a referral program where depositing $50 earns another $50 free, with all new app fees directed into the pool. Perps trading has also been enabled in-app. The program could total $100M in rewards. Community sentiment across [@Goats 🐐] remains mixed on memecoins — another account on X argues vamping and PVP rather than buying the runner is the core structural problem destroying value in the trenches.
