Pump.fun expands multichain trading to 4 networks with SOL as base currency

Pump.fun enabled multichain trading across Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain and other EVM networks on May 26, removing bridging and gas token management for users.

"Users can trade across all supported networks from one wallet using SOL as their single currency, with no manual bridging or separate gas tokens required," a Pump.fun spokesperson said.

The platform automatically generates multichain wallets for user accounts and sponsors gas fees on destination EVM chains. SOL serves as the universal trading currency throughout the experience. The rollout follows two infrastructure acquisitions — Padre, rebranded as Terminal, in October 2025 and Vyper in February 2026 — plus a March 2026 domain registration push across Ethereum, Base and BNB Chain. A MoonPay partnership enables fiat-to-crypto deposits across nine networks.

The expansion pushes Pump.fun beyond its Solana-native origins into Ethereum, Base and BNB Chain liquidity pools, where deeper markets and more established DeFi infrastructure await. The platform has generated more than $1 billion in cumulative revenue since its January 2024 launch, and the multichain move reduces its dependence on any single chain's memecoin cycle.

Pump.fun's pitch is that the app can hide the complexity of cross-chain trading while keeping execution fast. The platform recently added USDC trading pairs and has been layering new products around its core launchpad business. If users adopt the app as a single entry point across ecosystems, Pump.fun could become a chain-agnostic interface for speculative onchain markets.

The sustainability of the gas subsidy model depends on whether trading fees and token launch revenue offset the costs. Pump.fun's proprietary infrastructure — built through the Terminal and Vyper acquisitions — avoids reliance on third-party bridges, which have been the source of some of crypto's most costly exploits.

PUMP, the platform's native token, traded at $0.0018 as of press time.
