On Friday, August 1, the price of the PUMP token dropped 15%, from $0.00309 to a daily low of $0.002495, before rebounding to $0.0028. While the drop coincides with a broader market decline, it also reflects Pump.fun\u2019s falling revenues and shrinking market share.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Pump.fun\u2019s daily fees stood at $316,000 on August 1. On July 28, revenue hit a 10-month low at $307, according to DeFiLlama. This marks a 95% decline from the all-time high in daily revenue of $7 billion on January 23.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><picture decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14402019\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" ><\/source><\/p>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Daily fees on Pump.fun | Source: DeFiLlama<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>At the same time, Pump.fun experienced a significant drop in market share.
