Meme coin launch platform pump.fun has announced the launch of its new BOOST mode, set as the default launch mechanism for all new Pump.fun tokens moving forward. The feature is designed to address the long-standing "dead liquidity" problem during token migrations, using a buyback and burn mechanism to re-inject liquidity that was previously permanently locked back into the token market. Pump.fun noted that over $100 million in liquidity is permanently lost annually during token migrations, with these funds no longer available to support market liquidity. Historically, roughly 20% of liquidity remains stuck in liquidity pools (LPs) for every token that completes migration — even after all traders sell their positions, some funds stay locked in the pools permanently. BOOST mode will leverage this trapped liquidity to re-inject into the market via an automatic buyback mechanism within 5 minutes of each token migration completion. Specifically, BOOST will execute buybacks using a post-migration time-weighted average price (TWAP) and automatically burn the purchased tokens. For SOL trading pairs, 17.6 SOL will be injected, while USDC trading pairs will receive $2,516 in funds. The mechanism requires no manual activation from users: all new Pump.fun tokens that complete migration after 10:23 AM Eastern Time (ET) on July 21 will automatically enable the BOOST configuration. Tokens migrated prior to this date or issued via the Mayhem platform do not include the feature. The upgrade aims to improve trading experiences and enhance the long-term utilization efficiency of liquidity within the ecosystem.
