Pump.fun Adds Pre-IPO Token Trading and New Coin Pairings

Pump.fun has added trading for PreStocks tokens tied to private companies including OpenAI and Anthropic, and now lets creators pair newly launched coins with those tokens.

The available tokens reference eight companies: OpenAI, Anthropic, Anduril, Neuralink, Figure AI, Kalshi, Polymarket and Oura. A creator can use one of the tokens as the trading pair for a new coin, so trades in that coin are priced against the selected PreStocks token.

The PreStocks tokens reference private companies before an initial public offering.

PreStocks operates on Solana. Pump.fun introduced custom trading pairs on Oct. 9, allowing creators to pair new coins with tokens already available on the platform. The addition of PreStocks extends that feature to tokens referencing private companies.
