Crypto Craze: How Pump.fun and Trump’s DeFi Took the World by Storm! 💰🚀

by

So, you know that feeling when you wake up and find out that a meme coin platform called Pump.fun has just raked in a jaw-dropping $600 million? Yes, darling, it topped the charts for token sales in 2025, making me question all my life choices while sipping on my lukewarm coffee. ☕️

And get this, the entire PUMP token sale sold out faster than you can say “I can’t believe it!”-in approximately 12 minutes. I mean, if only my online shopping experiences were that swift! 🛒💨

Biggest Token Sales of 2025 (Because Why Not?)

Now, let’s dive into the nitty-gritty of how they pulled this off. Pump.fun decided to reduce the public allocation to a mere 12.5% of its whopping 1 trillion tokens after dishing out 18% during a private sale. Talk about exclusive! But, surprise, surprise, you had to jump through those lovely KYC verification hoops! Because nothing says “trust us” like a little identity check, right? 🤨

The remaining tokens are being doled out to the team, community incentives, liquidity, and other fancy-sounding things that make it sound like they really know what they’re doing. Seriously, who wouldn’t want to invest in a project with “strategy”? Sounds so official! 📊

Meanwhile, CryptoRank reports that the second-biggest raise came from World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a DeFi project with a little backing from none other than Donald Trump himself. They’ve managed to pull in around $550 million since their public token sale began. Who knew politics could be so lucrative? 🙈

WLFI co-founder Zak Folkman mentioned that about 63% of the total supply will eventually be sold to the public. So, stay tuned for more sales! It’s like waiting for the next season of your favorite reality show, but with way more tokens involved! 🎉

In the world of less celebrity-backed projects, Layer 1 blockchain Monad snagged third place with a respectable $217 million raised, just after going live on November 24. They even threw in an airdrop of their MON token, because who doesn’t love free stuff? The only bummer is that only 10.8% of the total supply is currently out there. Talk about keeping us on our toes! 😏

Other Blockchain Token Sales (Because We Need More!)

Next up, we have MegaETH, the “high-performance” Ethereum scaling solution, snagging a cool $78 million. It’s got the backing of some big names, including Dragonfly Capital and the one and only Vitalik Buterin. I guess it pays to know people! 🤝

Privacy is in vogue, too! Aztec Network secured $52 million for its zero-knowledge-based Ethereum Layer 2. And let’s not forget Plasma-a stablecoin-focused blockchain that raised $50 million while promising to marry Bitcoin’s security with Ethereum’s charm. Sounds like the perfect relationship, if only it were that easy in real life! ❤️

And rounding out the top 10? We have Gensyn with $16 million, Solayer with $10.5 million, Sahara AI with $8.5 million, and Lombard with a humble $6.7 million. Clearly, everyone’s getting in on the action! 💸
