Pump.fun Expands Trading Support to HyperEVM Through Mobile App
Pump.fun has expanded its trading infrastructure beyond Solana by adding support for HyperEVM to its mobile application, allowing users to trade HyperEVM-based tokens against USDC with fees starting at 0.1%.
The announcement was made by Pump.fun's official account on August 27, 2026. The integration gives users access to HyperEVM tokens without requiring them to manually bridge assets between networks.

Pump.fun HyperEVM Integration and Trading Fees
The new functionality focuses on secondary-market trading rather than token creation. Users can trade existing HyperEVM-based tokens through the application, while direct launches of new tokens on HyperEVM are not yet supported.
Pump.fun's current fee structure includes:
- Solana trading fees: 0%
- HyperEVM, Robinhood, BNB, and Base trading fees: 0.1%
- Settlement currency for HyperEVM trades: USDC
- Callout rewards for users recommending tokens that subsequently generate trading volume
- A leaderboard tracking top traders and their followers
Pump.fun said the integration brings the EVM network into its fast-moving retail trading environment. The company has also introduced rewards tied to token recommendations, allowing users to receive incentives when tokens they highlight generate trading activity.
What Is HyperEVM?
HyperEVM is an Ethereum-compatible smart-contract layer built on top of Hyperliquid L1. According to the technical documentation cited in the original announcement, it operates using the same HyperBFT consensus mechanism and validator set as HyperCore.
The network is designed to combine Ethereum-compatible programmability with access to Hyperliquid's underlying trading infrastructure.
Key HyperEVM specifications include:
- Mainnet chain ID: 999
- Full Solidity compatibility with standard Ethereum tooling
- Native gas token: HYPE
- Direct precompile access to HyperCore prices, positions and balances
- Dual-block architecture separating fast, smaller transactions from more computationally intensive activity
HyperEVM launched in early 2025 and remains in a growth phase for general-purpose applications. HyperCore, meanwhile, has developed into a major venue for on-chain perpetual futures trading.
HyperEVM Trading, Liquidity and Rewards
Hyperliquid's perpetual futures platform processes multi-billion-dollar daily trading volumes and has substantial total value locked, cited at around $1.5 billion or more on the L1 itself.
HyperEVM provides a programmable environment for tokens and decentralized finance protocols while maintaining access to the broader Hyperliquid ecosystem.
For Pump.fun, the integration creates an additional trading environment for users interested in HyperEVM-based assets. For Hyperliquid, the connection provides another route for traders to access meme-focused tokens through a familiar retail trading interface.
Potential Impact of Pump.fun's HyperEVM Expansion
The integration could affect activity across both ecosystems if adoption increases.
Greater participation from Solana-focused meme traders could contribute to additional trading activity and liquidity for HyperEVM-based tokens. Pump.fun could also generate additional trading-fee revenue, while increased network activity could contribute to gas and related activity on Hyperliquid.
The integration may also provide more trading venues for HyperEVM tokens, potentially improving secondary-market activity and price discovery.
A future expansion could eventually allow Pump.fun users to launch new tokens directly on HyperEVM. However, the current rollout is limited to trading existing tokens.
The integration also carries potential risks. Higher transaction demand could increase gas costs on HyperEVM. Supporting additional networks increases the infrastructure and security requirements for Pump.fun, while meme tokens remain subject to significant volatility and liquidity risks.
Pump.fun's Broader Multi-Chain Expansion
The HyperEVM integration is part of a broader expansion of Pump.fun's platform during 2026. The service has moved beyond its original focus on Solana and added support for additional EVM networks while increasing its use of USDC-denominated trading pairs.
The latest development reflects a broader trend toward multi-chain access in cryptocurrency markets. Traders increasingly interact with assets across different blockchain networks, while stablecoin-based trading pairs provide a common settlement mechanism.
Meme tokens also remain an important source of retail activity across blockchain ecosystems. At the same time, networks such as Hyperliquid are combining high-performance trading infrastructure with programmable environments designed to support applications and token-based activity.
Pump.fun's addition of HyperEVM therefore expands its reach into another blockchain ecosystem while giving its users access to existing HyperEVM-based tokens through its mobile application.
