A PumpSwap volume bot trades a Pump.fun coin in its canonical PumpSwap pool after the bonding curve completes and liquidity migrates. After graduation most of the new buyers arrive through DexScreener, so the run should be sized for what DexScreener reads: volume, transactions and unique makers.
What to know first
- Graduation moves liquidity from the curve to a canonical PumpSwap pool automatically, and it cannot be undone.
- Pump.fun sets the pool fee schedule and links it to market cap; the live fee page has current rates.
- A young pool holds roughly 85 SOL on its SOL side, so the run should be sized to fit that depth.
- The Pump.fun front page stops being the main source of buyers. DexScreener charts, trending lists and search take over.
- Our runs follow the coin across the migration on their own, and the 1% fee already covers the pool fees and tips.
Every trade in that pool pays a PumpSwap fee. In our runs the charge for those swaps, plus Solana costs and tips, is folded into the flat 1% of the volume goal.
What actually changes after a Pump.fun coin graduates?
On the curve, price is set by a formula. Pump.fun's program tracks virtual reserves that start at 30 SOL and 1,073,000,000 tokens, and 793,100,000 real tokens are for sale. When those real tokens run out the program marks the curve `complete`, trading on the curve stops, and the liquidity moves to PumpSwap. Anyone can call the migrate instruction. Nobody has to press a button for you.
By our own arithmetic from the published constants, a finished curve holds roughly 85 SOL at completion, and the market cap at that moment sits near 410 SOL. That's why a freshly graduated coin tends to open on PumpSwap with a market cap in the low hundreds of SOL. The often-repeated "$69k" figure isn't in Pump.fun's docs at all; it's a dollar conversion that moves with the SOL price.
What changes for traders after migration?
After migration the coin trades in an ordinary constant-product pool with real liquidity on both sides. Prices move with pool depth, not with a fixed curve. Bots and aggregators route to it. The pump.fun page still exists and still shows trades, but the feeds that pushed the coin during launch are built for coins that haven't graduated yet, and you'll notice it within an hour.
So what's different in practice? The audience moves. Your volume plan has to move with it. We cover the migration mechanics in more detail in our Pump.fun graduation guide.
Why do the same order sizes look smaller on PumpSwap?
Order sizes that worked on the curve look smaller on PumpSwap because liquidity there is deeper than the last stretch of the curve. A 1 SOL buy moves the price less than it did an hour earlier. Runs that kept the same order sizes from the curve phase suddenly look smaller on the chart. We usually widen the order range a little after migration, say from 0.1 to 1.5 SOL instead of 0.1 to 1 SOL, so the candles still show movement without any single wallet standing out.
Who pays the PumpSwap fees during a run?
Every trade in the pool pays a PumpSwap trading fee on-chain, the same as any other swap there. Pump.fun sets that schedule, ties it to the coin's market cap, and revises it from time to time, so the live fee page is the only place to read current rates. A volume run buys and sells, which means the pool fee is paid on each leg of every round trip.
In one of our runs none of that lands on you. The flat 1% of the volume goal already includes every PumpSwap trade fee, every Pump.fun curve fee if the run began before graduation, the Solana network costs and the Jito tips. The creator pays nothing on top, and the price stays the same whether the coin sits at a small market cap or a large one.
| Volume goal | What you send | Pool fees, network costs and tips |
|---|---|---|
| 100 SOL | 1 SOL | Included |
| 500 SOL | 5 SOL | Included |
| 1,000 SOL | 10 SOL | Included |
| 2,500 SOL | 25 SOL | Included |
Does PumpSwap trading still pay creator rewards?
Yes, trading in the canonical pool keeps paying creator rewards to whichever address holds the creator role, just as the curve did, so activity after graduation still feeds that balance. Side pools set up by third parties pay the creator nothing, which is one more reason our console only targets the canonical pool. The launch-side costs, from free coin creation to the 0.015 SOL migration fee, are collected in our guide to what Pump.fun charges creators.
How big should a PumpSwap run be?
Size a PumpSwap run from the pool's liquidity, not from your budget. A freshly graduated coin opens with roughly the 85 SOL the curve collected on the SOL side, which is a small pool by DEX standards. Put 2,500 SOL of volume through it in an hour and the pair page shows a number that doesn't fit its own liquidity. Put 300 SOL through it across six hours and the page looks like a young coin that people are actually trading.
Our rule of thumb, which is a judgment call and not a measured threshold, goes like this. On day one, aim for a 24-hour figure a few times the pool's SOL liquidity. As real buyers arrive and the pool deepens, the same multiple supports a bigger number. Is the coin already doing well on its own? Then a smaller run that fills the quiet hours usually helps more, compared with a large one that competes with real orders.
Which choices shape a pool run?
Five choices shape a pool run, and the first one is always a look at the pool itself.
- Check the pool liquidity on the DexScreener pair page before picking a target.
- Pick a run length that covers the hours you care about, usually the first evening in your buyers' time zone.
- Let order sizes vary across a range, so the trades tab shows small, medium and occasional larger buys and sells.
- Keep the wallet count high enough that unique makers grow along with volume.
- Review after the first half hour and ask support to adjust the pace if the chart looks rushed.
Each of those choices is about the same thing: making the pair read like many independent traders, with varied sizes, uneven timing and plenty of separate wallets, because that's what a visitor arriving from a chart expects to see on a coin worth a second look.
Why does DexScreener become the main discovery surface?
Before graduation people find coins on Pump.fun itself. After it, a large share of new eyes come from DexScreener: the pair page, the trending list, the new-pairs view and plain search. That shift is the real reason post-graduation volume matters.
DexScreener says its trending ranking weighs unique makers, transactions, volume, liquidity, holders, page visitors and reactions, plus Enhanced Token Info and whether a security audit is present. The exact formula is private. Boosts are a separate paid product that adds visibility on top, and they're documented on DexScreener's own boosting page. Neither one is something we can promise you a result on.
What follows for a PumpSwap run is simple. Spread trades across many wallets so unique makers grows with volume. Keep transactions steady through the window you care about instead of dumping everything in ten minutes. And fill in the DexScreener token profile yourself, since no bot can do that part. If you want the full breakdown of what the list reacts to, read our DexScreener trending guide.
How is a PumpSwap volume bot run set up?
Setup is the same whether or not the coin has graduated. If you start before graduation, there's nothing to switch. Our Pump.fun volume booster trades the bonding curve first and then switches to the canonical PumpSwap pool by itself once the migration lands. If the coin already graduated, the run simply starts in the pool.
Paste the mint
Enter the contract address and the console tells you if the coin still trades on its curve or has moved to the canonical PumpSwap pool. Graduation creates the canonical pool, which holds roughly the 85 SOL the curve collected, and it is the only pool the console targets.
Size the target
Target volume is the SOL your run trades, from 100 SOL up. Keep it believable. On a small coin the target should match a believable 24-hour number for its liquidity, not the biggest figure you can afford. For a fresh pool near 85 SOL of liquidity, 300 SOL across six hours reads far more naturally than 2,500 SOL in one hour.
Choose wallets and pacing
Wallet count is the next choice: 500 minimum, 10,000 maximum, all fresh. Then pick a run length of 15 minutes up to 10 hours. Longer windows read more like real trading on DexScreener charts. More wallets also keep unique makers growing along with volume, one of the signals DexScreener says its trending list reads.
Pick extras
Holder retention keeps 20 to 80% of run wallets holding a small balance. Replies, favorites and follows still work on the pump.fun page if you want the thread to look alive. Feed bumps at 2 to 20 per minute are optional too, and none of these extras change the 1% price.
Pay and watch
Send the 1% fee to the deposit address in the console (a Solana Pay QR works too). No wallet connection, key or signature is asked for, and nothing needs installing. For a 500 SOL goal the fee is 5 SOL. Track the trades on Solscan as they land.
What should you check in the first thirty minutes?
Watch the first thirty minutes closely. Open the pair on DexScreener, check that the maker count climbs alongside the volume, and look at the trades list for anything that reads as a pattern: identical sizes, identical gaps, one wallet showing up again and again. Fresh wallets per run exist to avoid exactly that.
If something looks off, tell support before the window closes.
Is a PumpSwap run worth it for every coin?
A PumpSwap run is not worth it for every coin.
If the coin has no community, no profile and no reason to exist, volume buys a few hours of attention and then the chart goes flat again. We'd rather tell you that before you pay than after.
It's most useful in the first day after graduation, when the pair is new on DexScreener and activity tends to drop off as the launch crowd moves on to the next curve. A steady run during that gap keeps the pair from looking abandoned while real holders decide whether to stay. It can't make them stay, and nobody can promise a spot on any trending list. Countries treat token promotion in their own ways, so if you aren't sure where you stand, look it up locally before a run; this page isn't legal advice.
Quick answers
Does a PumpSwap volume bot work on coins that never used Pump.fun?
No. Softatjeh runs are built for Pump.fun coins that trade in their canonical PumpSwap pool, the pool created automatically at graduation once about 85 SOL has filled the curve. Other, non-canonical pools can exist on PumpSwap, but the console targets only the canonical one, since that pool feeds creator rewards and is the pair most charts pick up first.
Do I pay PumpSwap trading fees on top of the run price?
PumpSwap trading fees are never added on top. Pool and curve swap charges from the run, with Solana fees and Jito tips, are part of the flat 1% of the volume goal, so a 1,000 SOL goal costs 10 SOL in total. Pump.fun publishes the pool schedule, tied to market cap, on its own fee page.
Do I need a separate run after my coin graduates?
No separate run is needed after graduation. Any Softatjeh run that starts on the bonding curve switches to the canonical PumpSwap pool automatically once migration lands, at the same price. Starting a new run only makes sense if the first one has already finished, and each run can last anywhere from 15 minutes to 10 hours.
Who pays the PumpSwap fees during a run?
Run wallets pay the PumpSwap fees on every trade, on both legs of each round trip. The flat 1% fee you pay Softatjeh covers those pool fees together with priority fees and Jito tips, so a 500 SOL volume goal costs 5 SOL and nothing more is billed during or after the run.
Will PumpSwap volume get my coin trending on DexScreener?
PumpSwap volume can help with the signals DexScreener says its trending ranking reads, such as volume, transaction count and unique makers, and our runs spread trades over 500 to 10,000 wallets for that reason. According to DexScreener, the private formula also uses holders, page visitors, reactions and token info. Nobody can guarantee a trending spot.
What is the minimum for a PumpSwap run?
Softatjeh's minimum for a PumpSwap run is 100 SOL of target volume, which costs 1 SOL at the 1% rate. That minimum applies whether the run starts on the bonding curve or directly in the canonical pool. For a young pool holding roughly 85 SOL, a few hundred SOL spread over several hours usually reads better than one huge target.
Keep the pool trading after migration
Point a run at the PumpSwap pool and spread it across enough wallets to lift makers and transactions. The full setup is on screen before you pay, and your wallet is never involved.
