Pumpfun graduation rate hits 6.7%, about 8x June average

BOOST’s rollout coincided with a sharp rise in token graduations, with permanently locked liquidity used for automatic buys and burns immediately after migration to bolster early trading conditions.

Fact Check
The Block article and its accompanying X post directly confirm the core figures: a 6.7% graduation rate that is roughly 8x the June average, coinciding with the BOOST rollout. The Block explicitly describes BOOST as redeploying previously locked migration liquidity into automatic buys and burns immediately after bonding/migration, which matches the claim's statement that 'permanently locked liquidity used for automatic buys and burns immediately after migration to bolster early trading conditions.' Independent corroboration from WEEX aligns on all key numbers. Nuance: the '8x June average' comparison is best understood against the lower baseline June rate rather than the 4.7% four-day post-BOOST average cited by The Block, but the overall claim is accurate.

Summary

Pumpfun’s token graduation rate climbed to 6.7% last Friday, up from a 0.8% average in June, 4.7% over the prior four days and 2.5% the previous week after the rollout of BOOST. The new mechanism uses about 20% permanently locked dead liquidity at graduation to auto-buy and burn tokens in the first five minutes after migration, a design the founder said adds about 20% liquidity per newly migrated token and could inject hundreds of millions of dollars into the ecosystem over time. In launchpad markets, graduation rate is closely watched as a gauge of how effectively new tokens progress into deeper trading and liquidity stages.
