Pump.fun has made headlines again by transferring 109,587 SOL, valued at $24.36 million, to Kraken just four hours ago.
However, the pace of SOL selling from Pump.fun is expected to slow down in the coming months due to several factors:
1. Depleted Reserves: Pump.fun has nearly exhausted its SOL holdings over the past two months. The remaining assets include only 100,000 JITOSOL, valued at $25.85 million.
2. Decline in Fee Income: The hype around SOL-based meme transactions has diminished, leading to a significant drop in fee income. In November, Pump.fun earned 15,000–20,000 SOL daily in fees. By December, this has halved to approximately 10,000 SOL per day.

后面 pump 卖 SOL 的数量或频率应该就没有这段时间这么高了。因为：

Pump.fun’s latest activity and the ongoing market volatility highlight the shifting dynamics in the crypto space. While Solana remains a major player, declining transaction enthusiasm and broader liquidation trends may signal a cooling period for the network and its participants.
