Pump.fun ties callout rewards to followers’ profits starting October 10

Co-founder Alon says low-cap token recommendations will earn less as the program shifts from rewarding volume to rewarding results Pump.fun is changing how it pays people to recommend tokens. Starting with the October 10 payout, callouts on low-cap tokens will earn less, according to co-founder Alon. The bigger change is in what gets measured. Rewards will now track whether followers actually benefited from a recommendation, not how much trading volume the call generated. Alon announced the update in a post on X. Under the revised model, callers who steer followers into profitable trades are the ones who get rewarded. Until now, the program favored callouts that drove trading activity. That approach has a familiar flaw.
