Pump.fun destroyed approximately 370 million dollars worth of PUMP tokens and launched a programmatic buyback and burn mechanism

Pump.fun has completed the destruction of all previously repurchased PUMP tokens, involving an amount of approximately $370 million, accounting for about 36% of the circulating supply. Meanwhile, Pump.fun announced the launch of a programmatic buyback and burn mechanism, which will use 50% of net income over the next year to repurchase $PUMP on the open market and immediately burn 100%. This mechanism is executed through an irreversible smart contract, covering the revenue sources of Pump.fun's three major product lines: the joint curve, PumpSwap, and Terminal. The execution process includes four steps: fee aggregation, intermediate wallet integration, and buyback and burn, which can be tracked in real-time via fees.pump.fun.

The remaining 50% of the income will be used to support business operations and ecological development, including team expansion, strategic investments, and marketing. Pump.fun stated that this move aims to address the community's concerns about the long-term value of the token and the transparency of the buyback mechanism, with the goal of continuously reducing the circulating supply.
