$HONEY , $MPLX , $CROWN Lead Solana Ecosystem Token Performance During Breakpoint
Which native tokens outperformed the market during Solana Breakpoint 2024?
Solana Breakpoint delivered a bounty of massive announcements not only for Solana, but also for a host of applications and projects building in the ecosystem.
However, market dynamics don’t always line up with protocol updates. Hype and speculation can push prices up ahead of the event, only to be met with disappointing price action when teams don’t deliver the news traders are hoping to hear.
On the other hand, projects that were ignored by speculative traders can enjoy solid price appreciation when they deliver unexpected announcements.
In the eyes of the market, who were Solana Breakpoint’s best and worst performers?
Solana Breakpoint Market Dynamics
To illustrate market dynamics during Breakpoint, analysts compiled and analyzed price data from 20 key projects in the ecosystem. Tokens were shortlisted from the following criteria:
In the industry’s top 1,000 tokens by market capitalization.
Made announcements, or participated in Breakpoint panels and debates.
If not presenting at the event, proven ecosystem OGs like Orca and Raydium were included.
Other than BONK Memecoins were excluded. BONK’s inclusion is due to its announcements and significant presence at the event.
Using Step Finance data, prices were pulled from Breakpoint’s opening and compared that with the price recorded at the closure of the event.
While the market anticipated big announcements from the likes of Jupiter and Sanctum, it was the projects that no one expected updates from who performed the best. $HONEY , $MPLX , and $CROWN outperformed the market, while most of the ecosystem remained largely unchanged.
Hivemapper, the company behind $HONEY , shared impressive growth statistics. The DePIN protocol has successfully mapped over 26% of the world’s road network and now sells mapping data to three of the ten largest mapmakers.
Metaplex, one of Solana’s longest-standing infrastructure providers, held a stealthy presentation in The Pod, one of Breakpoint’s smaller spaces. During the session, Metaplex teased the upcoming launch of the Metaplex Aura Network, a mysterious new addition to Metaplex’s product suite.
Finally, Photo Finish announced that its mobile app was approved for distribution on the Apple App Store. According to Photo Finish CEO, this makes the app the world’s first real-money horse racing mobile game approved by Apple.
However, Breakpoint is a relatively short event with plenty of other dynamics influencing price movements. For example, $CLOUD’s appears to have traded sideways during Breakpoint, but it needs to be said that the asset enjoyed an impressive surge both before and after the event.
Despite stale price action throughout Breakpoint, $CLOUD is up 67% on a weekly time frame and has been one of the Solana ecosystem’s best performers, based on Step Finance data.

Solana DePins Rally Over 30% While TradFi Platforms Suffer Outages - A Sign of the Future
DePin tokens like SHDW, RENDER, and HONEY bounced hard after chaotic market dynamics sent crypto prices tumbling.
Solana DePINs (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) once again proved their worth. Showing resilience in the face of bearish market forces, DePIN tokens have enjoyed a powerful resurgence from local bottoms, indicating strong demand.
Moreover, infrastructure outages across the world of traditional finance lend further credibility to DePINs and other decentralized services.

Solana’s favorite no-code token deployer has proven itself the biggest application of the cycle, consistently generating millions in revenue.
Pump.fun, a popular Solana-based token deployment application, is showing no sign of stopping. After celebrating the launch of one million tokens on the platform on June 14, 2024, pump.fun notched 1.5M launches a mere 42 days later on July 25th.
PUMP.FUN GENERATES $85M REVENUE SINCE JANUARY LAUNCH
Consistently generating over $1M in daily revenue, pump.fun has established itself as one of the most valuable crypto apps in terms of revenue generation. In just under seven months since its January 14 launch, pump.fun has generated 520,412 SOL in revenue, currently valued at over $85M
The platform’s viral growth has set an astonishing pace. After a comparatively slow start, pump.fun usage exploded in March and never looked back. On average, 12,679 tokens were launched daily on the platform in July, based on Dune Analytics data.
Off the back of its massive popularity, pump.fun recently crossed the 1.5M token deployment threshold. The no-code token creator is accelerating towards the next significant milestone at 2M launches and is expected to achieve this feat in just under 32 days, if it continues the pace set in July.
In a recent interview with threadguy, a popular crypto influencer, pump.fun co-founder alon credits the platform’s success to its accessibility. Alon argues that pump.fun is the ideal intersection between finance and social media, contending that “pump.fun is SocialFi in the most crypto-native way”.
PUMP.FUN RESPONSIBLE FOR 40.97% OF SOLANA DEX TRANSACTIONS
One doesn’t need to look far to see that pump.fun has evolved into one of the most critical applications in Solana’s DeFi ecosystem.
According to Dune Analytics data collected over the past seven days, pump.fun transactions make up approximately 40.97% of all Solana DEX transactions.
However, given that tokens launched on the platform are migrated to Raydium upon reaching a market capitalization of $69 ,000, volumes on the app remain relatively low compared to other decentralized exchanges.
Despite attracting the bulk of Solana DEX transactions, pump.fun’s DEX volume market share continues to hover around 4%, with Raydium being a significant benefactor of pump.fun’s success.
“THE WORST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO CRYPTO ” - Alon Responds to Criticism
For many blockchain advocates, pump.fun represents all the worst parts of the industry. Arguing that the proliferation of meme coins on Solana is drawing attention away from serious projects, and delegitimizing the industry.
In response to criticism, alon concedes that “pump.fun is the worst thing to happen for crypto for a lot of people”. However, the co-founder argues that the platform has simply “uncovered the veil” and exposed “crypto for what it really is”.
Looking ahead, alon posits that the key to continuing pump.fun’s meteoric growth is to “leaning into what we’ve already done”.
While not giving away any hints regarding upcoming features on the platform, alon indicated that the pump.fun team was committed to “improving the experience while maintaining the culture that makes it so exciting in the first place.”
