PANews reported on February 19 that, according to Cryptopolitan, Pump.fun's weekly token upgrades have increased to 1.15% of all tokens, the highest level since the summer of 2025.

Pump.fun is again attempting to increase the speed of token creation and upgrades. The number of token upgrades has been rising steadily over the past few weeks, leading to increased transaction fees on Pump.Swap.

Overall, the token upgrade rate averaged 1.15% of the total newly issued tokens, marking the first time this metric has exceeded 1% in months. Historically, the token upgrade rate peaked at around 2% before declining to around 0.5%, or approximately 80 tokens per day.
