A Look at 6 Emerging Launchpad Platforms: Solana Still the Main Battlefield, MEME Core Enables Diverse Gameplay
Original Article Title: "Overview of 6 Emerging Launchpad Platforms: Solana Still the Main Battlefield, Diverse Gameplay Unfolding under MEME Core"
Original Article Author: Nancy, PANews
Following the shutdown of Pump.fun, the "wealth-building engine," the market has seen the emergence of multiple new and emerging launchpad platforms. This PANews article lists 6 highly anticipated rookie launchpad platforms, with a focus on Solana. These platforms have various business models, including time tokenization, socialized token issuance, AI gamified competition, and social points mechanisms. They have shown innovative attempts in security, gameplay diversity, and accessibility, but their core still revolves around MEME. However, at this stage, most of these platforms are facing challenges of low market participation and insufficient liquidity.
Time.fun
Time.fun is a time tokenization platform that combines MEME and SocialFi elements, targeting users more inclined towards the creator economy. Incubated by Alliance DAO, it has migrated from Base to Solana. The design concept of Time.fun is to tokenize "time", allowing creators (founders/influencers/investors/musicians, etc.) to transform their time into tradable digital assets, issuing individual time tokens in minutes. Fans or supporters can purchase these tokens to engage in one-on-one communication, consultations, or other forms of interactive services with the creator.
Unlike Pump.fun, Time.fun uses USDC for transactions and requires X verification when setting prices. During the creation process, creators have the right to choose to allocate income to charities in different proportions. According to official disclosures, the platform has donated $100,000 within 26 hours of its launch. In terms of functionality, Time.fun features group chats, voice calls, video calls, and will introduce auctions (where creators can conduct open auctions for any item) and appointment calls with creators in the next few weeks.
Currently, dozens of creators, including Solana co-founder toly, Solana co-founder Raj Gokal, Helius CEO Mert Mumtaz, Infinex founder KainWarwick, SendAI founder Yash Agarwal, Alliance DAO Partner Qiao Wang, and DeFi researcher Ignas, have joined. However, despite receiving strong support from Solana officials, the current market participation is still relatively low, with the highest market cap token $toly being less than $6 million.
Super Exchange
Super Exchange is a Solana-based token issuance and trading platform powered by an Infinite Bonding Curve, aiming to provide robust liquidity and fair price discovery, eliminating the drawbacks of traditional trading platforms such as insider trading and liquidity risks.
$SUPER is the platform token of Super Exchange, with 100% of the supply allocated to the community. Users earn points by trading tokens and inviting others to purchase $SUPER, which can be used to buy $SUPER, with a rule of 1 point corresponding to the purchase of 1 $SUPER. The platform will use 50% of the trading fees to buy back and burn $SUPER. To create a token on Super Exchange, users must add the token's image, symbol, and name. Optional fields include links to Twitter, Telegram, and the project's official website. Token information needs to be updated through a proposal vote.
According to GMGN data, as of the time of writing, the market cap of $SUPER exceeds $3.3 billion.
top.fun
top.fun is a social token issuance platform designed to make token holding meaningful, simple, and social through a community-driven ecosystem. Unlike traditional token issuance platforms, top.fun aims to provide users with a more transparent, fair, and engaging experience through the innovative (3,3) mechanism. Its core features include curated token issuance, fee flow into the liquidity pool, SOL airdrops to holders, integration with Apple Pay, and community-driven rewards. top.fun has issued its first token, $TOP. It is worth noting that alon, the founder of Pump.fun, is one of the followers of top.fun's X account. In contrast to Pump.fun, top.fun emphasizes mobile experience and revenue distribution.
Monsters.fun
Monsters.fun is based on Abstract, where users can create and nurture their own digital monster AI Agent and increase its value through a bonding curve token. It is planned to launch in March 2025. In comparison to Pump.fun, Monsters.fun leans more toward AI and game competition rather than pure token speculation.
The platform's gameplay combines elements of role-playing games (RPGs) and tokenomics. Players can engage their monsters in turn-based battles, driven by strategy. Monsters can learn from each encounter and evolve their tactics in real-time. As each Agent is associated with a bonding curve token, its value expands with changes in market capitalization. Additionally, Monsters.fun is based on a16z's open-source AI Town project, providing an immersive, AI-driven experience aimed at creating a vibrant, personality-filled virtual world. Currently, Monsters.fun is inviting users to join through a whitelist mechanism.
Nad.fun
Nad.fun is a social MEME launch platform in the Monad ecosystem, encouraging users to create tokens and increase airdrop opportunities through a scoring mechanism, while ensuring fairness through an MEV-resistant (Maximize Extractable Value) mechanism. Nad.fun combines the propagation mechanism of social media, where users can accumulate points by posting content, resharing, or interacting on X, which can eventually be converted into corresponding rewards, including LP fees and airdrops. Additionally, Nad.fun also supports AI Agent participation, allowing AI Agents to earn rewards from the platform through referral links and social interactions. Currently, Nad.fun is still in the testing phase.
NetMind XYZ
NetMind XYZ is an AI Agent Launchpad platform launched by NetMind.AI on the BNB Chain. NetMind XYZ is based on an advanced multi-agent framework, supporting four AI models: Llama, ChatGPT, Claude, and DeepSeek. Users can create a private or public agent. Private agents are limited to creators and cannot issue tokens, while public agents are open to everyone. Users can achieve Initial Agent Offering (IAO) by generating tokens for the agent and trading them paired with NetMind's utility token $NMT through smart contracts. These tokens will be locked for ten years.
