Solana Launchpad AltStonkFun Burns $40M, Surpasses PONS Revenue
AltStonkFun is gaining traction as a Solana-based launchpad, surpassing competitors in its market. Since its August 23 launch, the platform has burned over $40 million worth of STONK tokens at current value, effectively wiping out 14.4% of total supply. This reduction in supply has contributed to rising interest in STONK.
The platform, powered by Raydium, allows users to create coin pairs with stocks, commodities, currencies, memes, and leveraged assets. It also enables trading, rewards for holders, and earning within its ecosystem. The combination of token burns and rewards distributed to holders has drawn attention to STONK.
StonkFun's revenue has surged past that of Robinhood Chain-based launchpad PONS for two consecutive days, with $1.355 million in fees compared to PONS' $1.21 million. This shift suggests Solana is regaining ground in the memecoin launchpad race.
Looking at the price chart, STONK remains in an ascending trend while testing the upper boundary of its channel near $0.32. A clean flip above this level could extend the rally and apply further pressure on resistance. However, if $0.32 holds, the setup changes quickly, potentially sending STONK price back toward $0.20 or lower.
