How It Works (The 9 Steps)
The 9 Simple Steps of the PumpThePump Lifecycle.
Projects Compete
A project chooses a tier, pays the Project Fee, and enters its token into that tier batch.
Batch Completed
When enough projects join, the batch closes and waits for one project token to be selected.
Funds Split
The collected Project Fees fund the degen reward and the influencer rewards for that batch.
Token Selected (Hidden Reveal)
One project token is selected from the batch. The selected token stays hidden until it is time for the live pump.
Degen Pump Begins
The token appears on the DEX. Degens buy it through PumpThePump, and influencers send people through their referral links.
Volume Target Monitoring
The token must reach the required volume target for its tier before the reward draw can happen.
Volume Reached & Countdown
When the target is reached, a countdown begins. More eligible buys and referrals can still be added before the draw.
Degen Winner Picked
A random draw selects one eligible degen buyer. The top influencers for that same batch also receive their rewards.
Claim Your Reward
The winner opens the claim flow, completes any required checks for the tier, and redeems the reward through the approved payout process.
• Degen Winner: Verifies an approved CEX payout destination, passes sanctions screening, and then submits the burn-and-payout transaction to release the massive USDC prize.
• Influencers: Receive their reward for services rendered and do not go through the degen CEX payout-verification flow.
Pump volume must be reached before Degens and Influencers receive their rewards.
