SunPump, a Tron (TRX)-based meme coin launchpad, is seeing explosive growth. Over 100 tokens were created in a single day for the first time in four months. This spike follows SunPump’s zero-fee transaction initiative, which has fueled a new wave of meme coin projects.

Meme Coin Creation Hits New Highs

According to Onchain Lens, more than 220 meme coins launched on SunPump on March 18 alone.

With @justinsuntron showing confidence in the #Tron Meme Season, 122 tokens were launched on @sunpumpmeme yesterday alone, crossing 100+ launches for the first time in 4 months.

So far, 95,573 tokens have been launched, generating 36,374,191 $TRX in fees, worth $5.74M.

The momentum didn’t stop there. On March 19, the number soared to 313, marking a strong comeback for SunPump. The platform had seen a slowdown since its peak in August 2024.

Justin Sun Pushes SunPump’s Growth

Tron’s founder, Justin Sun, has been actively promoting SunPump on social media. He encourages users to trade meme coins on Tron, highlighting its low-cost infrastructure and the newly introduced zero-fee model.

The zero-fee policy, announced today, will remain in effect until September 2025. SunPump will also cover all energy costs, making trading completely free.

This move aligns with Sun’s goal to position Tron as a dominant meme coin platform, competing with Solana’s Pump.fun.

Every meme will be back on Tron!

SunPump’s Market Cap and TRX Surge

The impact of SunPump’s initiative has been immediate and significant:

• Market Cap Surge: The total SunPump ecosystem market cap jumped 21.3% in 24 hours, reaching $85.1 million.
• Trading Volume Spike: A 67.4% increase reflects growing investor interest.
• Top Meme Coin Gains: SunWukong (SUNWUKONG) and FoFar (FOFAR) both posted triple-digit percentage gains.

Beyond SunPump, Tron’s overall market activity has also intensified.

• Social dominance rose to 1.05%, making Tron one of the most discussed topics in crypto.
• TRX Price Rally: TRX climbed 5.7% in 24 hours, now trading at $0.24.

Final Thoughts

SunPump’s meme coin boom is reshaping the Tron ecosystem. With zero transaction fees, a wave of new projects, and strong backing from Justin Sun, the platform is attracting massive attention. If this trend continues, Tron could become a major player in the meme coin market.
