MEXC is doubling down on memecoin listings. The global exchange has deepened its partnership with pump fun, a Solana-based token launch platform, to roll out weekly memecoin listings in its new Meme+ Trading Zone, with TBCN/USDT kicking off the lineup.
Unveiled on September 8, the partnership kicks off with the TBCN/USDT pair going live at 14:00 UTC, marking the start of a scheduled weekly rollout of new tokens from the pump fun ecosystem. The tokens, built and deployed on Solana, are pushed directly to MEXC’s centralized trading platform, removing the need for external wallets or decentralized navigation.
Behind the scenes, pump fun’s framework enables zero-friction token launches with live streaming tools and creator volume incentives baked into its protocol. With Ethereum’s memecoin sector tangled in gas fees and congestion, Solana-native issuers have carved out an edge—reflected in the increasing volume and velocity of meme tokens originating from pump fun.
Expanding the Meme+ ecosystem
MEXC created the Meme+ Trading Zone to spotlight culturally relevant and fast-trending assets in the volatile meme sector. Through the new partnership, MEXC will:
- Feature weekly pump fun token picks
- Eliminate Web3 friction by allowing direct trading without external wallets
- Enhance market diversity and cultural accessibility for retail traders
MEXC COO Tracy Jin emphasized the mission: “By combining pump fun’s on-chain token innovation with MEXC’s global exchange infrastructure, we aim to bring a more open, accessible, and engaging memecoin ecosystem to millions of users worldwide.”
pump fun COO Alon Cohen echoed the momentum, highlighting how weekly listings will accelerate visibility for lesser-known communities and creators: “This initiative is designed to help strong projects gain traction, even without deep-pocketed backers or exchange connections.”
The initiative builds on pump fun’s earlier integration with MEXC’s DEX+ platform, showing an evolving partnership model that blends centralized and decentralized exchange experiences.
Instead of endless Telegram shills and dex-only sniping, projects now get a clear path from launchpad to liquidity. For memecoins, visibility is currency, and this initiative gives pump fun tokens a front-row seat.
As exchanges compete to ride the next wave of meme hype, MEXC is staking its claim, not with vague promises, but with a publishing schedule.
By integrating pump fun’s no-code Solana-based token tools with its own centralized listing engine, MEXC bridges two extremes of the crypto spectrum: grassroots coin creation and mainstream exchange access. In a market where hype moves faster than regulation, the Meme+ zone could become a proving ground for the next $PEPE or $DOGE. But this time, curated weekly.
