Author: Nancy, PANews As capital flows back and market sentiment recovers, the on-chain ecosystem is quietly heating up. Emerging token launch platforms are increasingly challenging the dominant player Pump.fun. This article by PANews highlights 10 rising Launchpad platforms that have recently drawn significant attention, spanning MEME, AI Agent, and SocialFi sectors—most of which are concentrated within the Solana ecosystem. These platforms each offer unique features, leveraging strong ecological foundations and resources while competing for market share through innovations such as optimized issuance mechanisms, enriched creator incentives, enhanced token utilities, and improved platform security.

LaunchLab

LaunchLab is a Solana-based token issuance platform launched by Raydium in mid-April. Creators can deploy tokens using the JustSendIt model, with tokens automatically migrating to Raydium's AMM once liquidity reaches 85 SOL. LaunchLab offers various customization options including token supply settings, distribution curves, vesting periods, and the option to receive 10% of trading fees. The platform charges a 1% transaction fee, with 50% allocated to a community pool, 25% used for $RAY buybacks, and 25% supporting project infrastructure and operations. On April 26, Raydium announced a 50,000 RAY reward pool for users transacting via LaunchLab. According to Dune data, as of April 29, LaunchLab had issued 24,916 tokens with a graduation rate of 0.84%. After its launch on April 16, daily token creation remained low—typically in the hundreds—but saw a sharp increase starting April 25, reaching thousands per day. Among the 210 graduated projects, total trading volume has been primarily driven by LetsBONK, TIME, and Hosico, collectively accounting for nearly $350 million in volume. Most other tokens see trading volumes ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Letsbonk.Fun

Built on Solana, Letsbonk.Fun was co-developed by members of the BONK meme community and Raydium. It enables users to create their own MEME coins through simple steps: clicking "Create Token" and filling in token details and custom supply. Developers benefit from features like wallet labeling and bonding curves, and newly listed tokens gain rapid access to major DEXs such as Raydium and Jupiter. Each transaction incurs a 1% fee, funding development, BONKsol validators, and BONK buybacks and burns. Users also qualify for participation in LaunchLab’s 50,000 RAY reward pool.

Arc Forge

Arc Forge is an AI Agent token launch solution introduced in mid-February by arc, an AI Agent project on Solana. Built on Meteora DLMM and integrated with Jupiter routing, Arc Forge offers advantages including more efficient liquidity management, protection against front-running bots, and customizable liquidity strategies. Only vetted, high-quality projects are allowed to participate.

auto.fun

auto.fun is a no-code AI agent Launchpad on Solana developed by Eliza Labs, designed for issuing new tokens and autonomous agents. Its native token is ai16z. The platform allows users without technical expertise to deploy sophisticated AI agents. auto.fun employs a fairer token issuance mechanism and uses a dual-pool system: the SOL:AT primary pool pairs newly launched agent tokens (AT) with SOL and provides liquidity via Raydium; the future $ai16z:AT pool aims to pair repurchased $ai16z tokens with AT using platform revenue. Each project launched on auto.fun receives a liquidity NFT backed by Raydium, granting creators ownership over liquidity and enabling ongoing fee capture through the NFT. For every AT token pool, auto.fun takes a 10% fee, which is used to buy back $ai16z from the market. As of April 27, the highest market cap for any token on auto.fun reached only several hundred thousand dollars.

Time.fun

Time.fun is a time-tokenization platform that migrated from Base to the Solana ecosystem. Creators must register via the platform interface, where they can customize token name, symbol, initial supply, and set pricing for time services (in USDC), requiring identity verification. Over the past two months, Time.fun has been frequently promoted by Solana co-founder Toly. Recently, he hosted an auction on the platform that attracted over $1.2 million in total bids. Three entrepreneurs won the opportunity to present their startups directly to Toly and the broader Solana ecosystem community, with live pitches scheduled for May 6 featuring real-time feedback from Toly. According to Dune analytics, as of April 28, Time.fun had issued only 396 tokens. Daily issuance peaked on launch day but has since steadily declined, often dropping into single digits or zero. Despite low issuance numbers, cumulative trading volume exceeds $200 million—with over $100 million generated on its first day on Solana—though volumes have gradually decreased and now range between tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Trading activity is largely driven by the $toly token, which consistently accounts for more than half of total volume.

Genesis Launches

Genesis Launches is a new launchpad recently unveiled by Virtuals Protocol, operating across both Base and Solana. Its core mission is to enable fair early community participation in new AI Agent projects, prevent bot and sniper exploitation, and safeguard participant funds. Each new project starts with a fixed diluted valuation of 112,000 $VIRTUAL (approximately $120,000). Users participate via staking Virgin Points, with a 24-hour bidding window per round—higher points yield greater allocation. There are currently three main ways to earn points: investing in Sentient and Prototype Agent tokens (earning Trenchor points), holding $VIRTUAL, or staking $VADER. Unused points expire after 30 days.

Shell Launchpad

Shell Launchpad is an AI Agent platform developed by MyShel on BNB Chain, designed to help users easily launch and tokenize their AI Agents. It offers multiple creation modes—Classic, Professional Configuration, and ShellAgent—to cater respectively to beginners, developers with some technical background, and advanced builders. The platform provides over 300 modular AI widgets, enabling users to quickly assemble complex AI Agents. Users can define basic information such as agent name, description, token, category, and configure economic models including total supply and fundraising targets. Once an AI Agent meets its funding goal, it is automatically listed on decentralized exchanges.

Swarms LaunchPad

Swarms LaunchPad is an AI agent token issuance platform built by Swarms on Solana, enabling the creation, deployment, tokenization, and monetization of intelligent agents. Developers can use the Swarms SDK (supporting Python/Rust) to build customized AI agents, upload them for tokenization, and trade them via Swarms Dex. Tokenized AI agents can be sold or rented on the Swarms marketplace, allowing developers to profit from purchase fees, rental splits, or trading gains. Top-performing agent creators may receive additional SWARMS token rewards. Recently, Swarms LaunchPad underwent a major upgrade, including performance enhancements, integration with Gecko Terminal, new comment functionality, portfolio tracking pages, and full open-sourcing of its codebase on GitHub. As of April 29, the official website shows 20 agents live on Swarms LaunchPad, with a combined market cap of approximately $1.5 million.

someting

Currently, someting has not officially launched and remains in whitelist mode. Based on available information, someting has partnered with Meteora, incorporating features such as single-sided liquidity, dynamic pools, vaults, and a distinctive Bonding Curve mechanism offering lower fees and faster bonding times. On someting, a token requires 42 SOL in liquidity to graduate. The trading fee is set at 0.69%, with support for customizable bonding curves, anti-snipe protections, and integrated market makers providing automated liquidity. To enhance credibility, someting also holds a verified badge on X.

Launch Coin on Believe

Launch Coin on Believe allows users to create and issue new tokens through simple social interactions—specifically, by replying to tweets containing @launchacoin followed by a token name, triggering the generation of a new token. Notably, Launch Coin on Believe was formerly known as PASTERNAK, a celebrity token created by Ben Pasternak, founder of Clout. Pasternak is also a co-founder of Monkey, one of the largest social apps in Web2. Clout is a SocialFi platform combining elements from Friend.Tech, Pump.fun, and Moonshot, enabling celebrities and creators to issue self-named tokens. The project previously received backing from Alliance DAO and others.
