Pump.fun adds tokenized stocks and other assets to its launch platform
Launch of Custom Pairs expands asset options
On September 9, 2026 Pump.fun announced that its launchpad now supports “Custom Pairs” – new token pairs that can be priced in tokenized stocks, wrapped Bitcoin, wrapped Ether and metals. The platform previously only allowed pairs quoted in SOL (Solana's native token) and USDC (a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar).
Key numbers
- The total number of supported pairs rose to 93, including tokenized Nvidia, Tesla and the S&P 500.
- Liquidity for the deepest new quote asset, wrapped ETH, is $3.07 million.
- Other notable liquidity figures: Wrapped BTC $607,490; S&P 500 token $1.35 million; Nasdaq‑100 token $1.28 million; Nvidia token $1.13 million; Tesla token $836,210.
Fee model and revenue use
Custom Pairs use the same bonding‑curve fee as standard launches: a flat 1.25 % fee, split into 0.3 % for the creator and 0.95 % for the protocol. Half of the protocol revenue is sent to a programmatic PUMP buy‑back‑and‑burn contract. Pump.fun has previously reported that buy‑backs have exceeded $400 million, reducing the circulating supply of its PUMP token.
Liquidity details
The platform’s pair selector shows that the new assets have lower fees and deeper liquidity than many existing SOL or USDC pools. Wrapped ETH holds the most liquidity at $3.07 million, followed by Backpack’s Micron token ($2.94 million) and SK Hynix token ($2.16 million).
Unclear aspects
Pump.fun’s published fee schedule lists only SOL‑ and USDC‑denominated pools. It does not provide a fee tier or market‑cap mapping for pools quoted in tokenized stocks, so the exact fee structure for those pairs remains unspecified.
Why it matters
By allowing creators to price new tokens against tokenized equities and other real‑world assets, Pump.fun expands the range of DeFi products on Solana. This could attract users who want exposure to traditional stocks within a decentralized environment, while the revenue‑share model supports the PUMP token’s buy‑back program.
