Pump.fun's token graduation rate increased following launch of BOOST incentive mechanism changes.
Tech & Launches ·
Pump.fun's token graduation rate rose following the introduction of BOOST incentive mechanism changes. The elevation in graduation—the rate at which tokens advance past their bonding phase—occurred after the new incentive structure took effect. BOOST operates on tokens that have already completed their bonding period, meaning the mechanism does not mechanically increase the proportion of tokens reaching the graduation threshold by design. The timing of the rate jump relative to BOOST's launch suggests other factors may have contributed to the shift, though the exact drivers of the acceleration remain unclear.
