According to KookCapitalLLC, Pasternak's launchpad amassed $100 million in fees within a single week, far surpassing Pump Fun’s $600 million fee total over the past year. This rapid capital extraction signals a significant shift in the crypto launchpad sector, suggesting that launchpads have established dominance in fee generation and early-stage token distribution. For crypto traders, this trend highlights the importance of monitoring launchpad activity and fee structures when seeking new trading opportunities and assessing market liquidity.

According to @KookCapitalLLC, current data from CryptoRank and CoinGecko indicates that Binance Launchpad, Solana-based Magic Eden Launchpad, and Ethereum-focused Seedify are leading in the number of new coin launches in 2025. Binance Launchpad maintains a high volume with multiple high-profile projects launching monthly, offering strong liquidity and immediate trading opportunities (source: CryptoRank, May 2025). Magic Eden is dominating the Solana ecosystem, while Seedify shows increased activity in GameFi and metaverse tokens. Traders should monitor these platforms for early access to token sales and potential post-launch price volatility, as these launchpads often see the highest on-chain trading volumes and rapid listing on major exchanges (source: CoinGecko, May 2025).

According to Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL) on Twitter, Acurast, a portfolio company, is set to launch its token sale on Coinlist starting tomorrow. This event allows traders to participate in Acurast’s phone-powered decentralized ecosystem. Recent Coinlist token raises have performed well, indicating potential trading momentum for Acurast's token upon listing. Traders should monitor Coinlist for allocation details and consider the historical strong performance of Coinlist projects as a trading signal (source: @CryptoMichNL on Twitter, May 14, 2025).

According to KookCapitalLLC, only Fartcoin is expected to surpass the $1 billion market cap this cycle among meme coins, due to excessive token launches and rapid liquidity rotation in the current crypto environment (source: Twitter/@KookCapitalLLC, April 28, 2025). The proliferation of over 75 launchpads and ongoing expansion is leading to capital being extracted quickly, making it challenging for new meme coins to sustain strong growth and achieve high valuations. Traders should focus on liquidity trends and launchpad activity as key indicators for meme coin performance this cycle.
