Pump.fun Supports External Platform Tokens and Non-Native Assets, Expanding Mobile Trading Features
Odaily News: Solana ecosystem Meme coin launch platform Pump.fun announced that its mobile application now supports tokens issued by competitor platforms and other non-native assets, further expanding the scope of in-app trading.
Pump stated on platform X on Monday that users want to trade and hold more assets without leaving the application. This update aims to create an on-chain trading app with "lower friction and higher functionality," allowing users to accomplish more within a single application.
Specifically, Pump.fun now supports assets from other Solana token launch platforms such as Raydium and Meteora. Additionally, the platform has added Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) and Wrapped Ethereum (WETH) via the Wormhole cross-chain bridge, as well as mainstream tokens like Gigachad (GIGA) and PENGU.
Influenced by the overall market recovery, the Pump token PUMP rose approximately 8.4% to $0.0020 at the time of writing, while Bitcoin gained about 6% during the same period.
Analysis suggests that in the current market environment, mature crypto platforms are accelerating their transformation into "one-stop trading applications" to compete for more user time and trading volume. Similar to centralized exchanges like Coinbase and Kraken, they are also evolving towards integrated platforms that combine crypto, stocks, and derivatives.
