PUMP prices edged higher on Thursday as traders speculated that the project may be expanding beyond its current ecosystem.
The token has risen about 9% over the past month as buyers attempt a recovery. Even so, PUMP remains about 78% below its all-time high from September 2025.
Market activity has picked up alongside price action. 24-hour trading volume reached approximately $111.1 million, up 32.4% from the previous day.
Multi-Chain Expansion Rumors Fuel Interest
Signs that Pump.fun may be preparing to expand beyond Solana are a primary driver of the recent surge in interest in the project.
Observers noted that the platform recently registered numerous new subdomains associated with other networks like Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base, and Monad. This move is often seen as early infrastructure work ahead of launching services on additional chains.
At the same time, the project’s official social media profiles removed their “Solana” location tag, further fueling speculation about a potential broader rollout.
A new development also emerged through a recent partnership with MoonPay, which allows users to fund Pump.fun accounts using assets held on different blockchains. Through this integration, deposits can be made from networks like Bitcoin, Polygon, and Arbitrum.
The process is handled behind the scenes by MoonPay, which automatically converts the assets and routes them to the platform.
Pump.fun itself continues to operate on the Solana network, and the team has not officially announced a full multi-chain expansion. Even so, the integration has sparked speculation that Meme coin creation and trading on the platform may eventually extend beyond the Solana ecosystem.
If it takes that direction, the platform could gain access to larger liquidity pools from other networks. Increased user activity and trading volume could boost the platform’s revenue.
In the past, these funds have been used for PUMP buybacks, token burns, and investments aimed at developing the ecosystem. However, some critics have cautioned that a multi-chain expansion could fragment liquidity. As a result, Memecoins listed on the platform may experience greater volatility.
