Beginner-friendly PumpFun overview

New to the pump fun crypto scene? This introduction explains the pumpfun site in plain language, covers wallet connect basics, and helps you see how PumpSwap completes the trading loop. It is written for first-time Solana users who want a clean path to their first trade.

What PumpFun does

PumpFun lets anyone launch a token on Solana with a bonding curve that creates liquidity as buyers join. Instead of registering accounts, you connect a pumpfun wallet to interact. Prices rise as more people buy, and eventually pools are deep enough to trade on PumpSwap.

Tools you need

• Phantom or Solflare wallet with SOL for fees.
• A reliable browser and a secure device. Avoid public computers.
• Awareness of the correct pumpfun website address to avoid phishing.

Simple first trade flow

1. Connect your wallet on the pumpfun site after verifying the URL.
2. Select a token with a reasonable supply and visible liquidity plan.
3. Buy a small amount to test the bonding curve.
4. When the token appears on PumpSwap, perform a small swap back to SOL to confirm everything works.

Helpful reminders

Keep your seed phrase offline. If any page prompts for it, leave immediately. Check slippage before swapping. Use a burner wallet for experiments. Bookmark this page and the wallet guide so you can revisit steps without searching.
