Solana-based memecoin launchpad Pump.fun has acquired wallet analytics platform Kolscan in its first-ever acquisition, announced on July 10-11, 2025. The integration aims to gamify onchain trading by incorporating Kolscan's real-time tracking of top Solana traders' activities, token PnL analysis, and performance leaderboards directly into Pump.fun's ecosystem.
Co-founder Alon Cohen emphasized this aligns with Pump.fun's core philosophy that "onchain trading is a social sport," enabling users to compare strategies and trade collaboratively. Kolscan services will remain free for all users, with planned upgrades to data accuracy, transaction speed, and new copy-trading tools. The acquisition comes as Pump.fun's market share in Solana memecoins has dipped below 60% amid rising competition from rivals like LetsBonk.
Strategically timed before Pump.fun's July 12 ICO, the move seeks to bolster investor confidence for its $600 million token sale. The ICO will release 150 billion PUMP tokens (15% of total supply) at $0.004 each, following an institutional sale of 18% under identical terms. Concurrently, Coinbase has enabled pre-market PUMP perpetual futures trading on its International and Advanced platforms, accelerating market access ahead of the official launch.
