Pump.fun has acquired trading terminal Vyper to expand its cross-chain trading capabilities and strengthen support for EVM-compatible networks including Base.
The deal, confirmed on February 5, will see Vyper’s team and technology integrated into Pump.fun’s Terminal, while the standalone Vyper product is phased out, with financial terms undisclosed.
“EVM support is a core focus for Terminal, and with Vyper’s infrastructure and talent, expect trading on EVM, including Base, to massively improve,”
The Terminal team said in a post announcing the integration.
Pump.fun co-founder Alon Cohen said the acquisition reflects a broader growth push, adding that “despite market conditions, we’re expanding our team rapidly and aggressively” to build faster and more efficient cross-chain infrastructure.
Originally launched on Solana in early 2024, Pump.fun has grown into one of the most active crypto applications by enabling users to create and trade tokens without technical expertise.
The Terminal product was built following Pump.fun’s earlier acquisition of another trading tool, Padre, and is intended to evolve into a multi-chain hub focused on speed, liquidity and execution quality.
The Vyper deal highlights Pump.fun’s shift from a meme-coin launchpad toward a broader trading and infrastructure platform spanning multiple blockchain ecosystems.
At the time of reporting, Solana price was $79.90.
