GasPump

TL;DR: GasPump is the first memecoin launchpad on TON, operating as a Telegram mini‑app that creates Jettons for a 0.3 TON fee and trades them through an automated bonding‑curve system. It offers features such as auto‑verification, community notes, and a loyalty program called Gas XP.

Overview#

GasPump is a Telegram mini‑app that enables anyone to launch a Jetton on TON in under two minutes for a service fee of 0.3 Toncoin. The platform mirrors the functionality of Solana’s pump.fun memepad, providing a fast, low‑cost entry point for memecoin creators and traders.

Key milestones

Launched on June 5 2024.
First‑week activity: over $1 million in trading volume, 50,000 traders, and 2,000+ tokens created.
Received a $500,000 grant from the TON Foundation’s Memelandia program on November 15 2024.
Introduced the audio token format on October 11 2024, embedding a short audio clip in the Jetton’s metadata.
Announced a 70 % trading‑fee share for token creators on December 9 2024 after graduation on DeDust.

The platform is maintained by a team of five developers.

Features#

GasPump combines several UX and research tools to streamline token creation and trading:

Automated verification on Tonkeeper and Tonviewer, with automatic whitelisting on DeDust.
TONRaffles integration shows when a token’s supply is locked, improving transparency.
Full transaction history from deployment to DeDust listing.
Pending‑transaction view helps users avoid slippage from large, unexecuted orders.
Community notes allow users to post and up‑vote comments; token creators cannot edit these notes.
Profile following sends alerts for transactions made by followed accounts.
DEXTools chart integration provides real‑time analytics for listed tokens.
Comments on transactions enable quick communication.
Automatic sticker packs are generated for each new token.
Configurable slippage (default 10 %) protects traders from price impact.

Token creation process#

To launch a memecoin, a user supplies an image, name, ticker, and pays the 0.3 Toncoin fee. Optional metadata includes social links, an audio file, and a description. After payment, 1 billion tokens are minted and become tradable on the platform via a bonding‑curve algorithm. The creator’s dev wallet can purchase the initial supply at the lowest price.

When the token’s pool accumulates 1,000 Toncoin, the contract is deployed to the blockchain and liquidity is transferred to DeDust, after which the token can be traded on external DEXes.

Trading mechanics#

Tokens are initially traded as wrapped versions on GasPump using the bonding curve. Once the 1,000 Toncoin threshold is reached, the token is “graduated” to the blockchain and listed on DeDust. Users can swap Toncoin for the wrapped token on GasPump and later exchange it for the native token on DeDust or other DEXes.

Gas XP loyalty program#

Gas XP points reward active participants and determine allocation of the upcoming GasPump governance token:

Activity	Reward
Purchase a memecoin	100 XP
Referral	3,000 XP
Referral that trades	+7,000 XP
Create a memecoin with trades from 50 distinct wallets	100,000 XP (no cap)

After the token generation event, a portion of the governance token will be distributed based on accumulated Gas XP.

Audio tokens#

On October 11 2024, GasPump launched audio tokens—Jettons that embed a ≤10‑second audio clip in their metadata. These tokens are supported by CoinGecko, DEXTools, DYOR.io, and DeDust, allowing users to play token sounds directly on those platforms.

Research guidelines for memecoins#

Memecoins are highly volatile and prone to scams. GasPump’s fair‑launch model mitigates some risks, but traders should still perform due diligence:

Verify the developer wallet’s history and ensure it does not hold more than 10 % of total supply.
Check for active social channels and a clear narrative.
Review community notes for positive feedback.
Follow reputable traders and monitor on‑chain activity.
Use slippage controls to guard against MEV bots.
