Pump.fun, a leading memecoin creation platform, has announced its first acquisition: wallet-tracking tool Kolscan, just ahead of its highly anticipated $1 billion initial coin offering (ICO) set for Saturday

Kolscan, short for “key opinion leader scan”, tracks top onchain traders, offering real-time transaction data, profit insights, and a leaderboard

The acquisition aims to enhance Pump.fun’s product suite and introduce social, gamified trading tools.

Co-founder Alon Cohen emphasized that onchain trading is a “social sport” and envisions Pump.fun evolving into crypto’s social media hub

Kolscan will remain free and receive major upgrades, including faster trade tracking and a revamped leaderboard to spotlight real traders over influencers

Future plans include advanced analytics for copy trading and profit/loss strategies.

Pump.fun rose to prominence in 2024, allowing users to create tokens without coding, generating millions in daily revenue

As competition from LetsBonk grows, this acquisition strengthens Pump.fun’s ecosystem.

The upcoming PUMP token ICO will offer 330 billion tokens at $0.004 each, with U.S. and U.K. buyers excluded due to regulations

The total token supply is capped at 1 trillion.
