Raydium’s native RAY token is up 13% prior to now 24 hours, beating a 1.62% achieve within the broader market tracked by the CoinDesk 100 (CD100) index.

Raydium’s LaunchLab will initially resemble the hit token issuance platform Pump.Enjoyable, Blockworks first reported. Although builders say it would have a number of added options that make it extra interesting for token launches.

LaunchLab could have three kinds of bonding curves that match demand and worth for a token and can let third-party UIs set their charges. A bonding curve is an computerized system that adjusts costs as tokens are purchased or offered on DEXs.

Raydium developer @0xINFRA mentioned in an X publish that the service might be simply added to purposes that already use Raydium’s present companies — corresponding to AMM v4, CP-Swap, CLMM swimming pools.

“We’re not right here to compete with launchpads at the moment utilizing Raydium — LaunchLab makes on-chain token launches simpler for groups, providing a impartial, permissionless infra,” he mentioned.

Raydium is at the moment producing over $1 million in charges every single day from buying and selling throughout all its liquidity swimming pools, not simply these of Pump.enjoyable tokens. Nevertheless, over 30% of Raydium’s every day buying and selling quantity got here from Pump.enjoyable tokens as of February, in keeping with a Dune dashboard.

Pump.Enjoyable, which lets anybody subject a token for lower than $2 in capital, after which they select the variety of tokens, theme, and meme image to accompany it. These tokens are robotically listed for buying and selling on Raydium after reaching a $69,000 market capitalization.

However, in late February, Pump.Enjoyable apparently moved away from utilizing Raydium as its migration platform by launching its AMM device (which means tokens can be obtainable for additional buying and selling on Pump as a substitute of Raydium).

The 2 groups wouldn’t have an official partnership in place and have not publicly commented on the latest developments.

In the meantime, @0xINFRA shut down early rumors of LaunchLab being a mere Pump.Enjoyable fork.

“Not a Pump fork, LaunchLab’s PoC UI mimics it for familiarity, nevertheless it’s way more versatile,” he mentioned within the X publish. “It’s the primary of a device suite—extra fashions in progress to deal with various liquidity wants. Open to suggestions and collabs for customized fashions. Not about stealing Pump’s customers—it’s about enriching Solana,” he added.
