Pump.fun, the Solana-based memecoin launchpad, has acquired Vyper, a multi-chain trading execution terminal focused on fast on‑chain trading. The companies announced the deal on February 5, 2026, but did not disclose financial terms.

Vyper’s team and infrastructure will integrate with Pump.fun’s Terminal trading product, which already supports Solana, Ethereum, Base, and BNB Smart Chain. As part of this integration, the standalone Vyper platform will be phased out over time, and its users will be directed to Terminal.

Pump.fun co-founder Alon Cohen said the acquisition is part of a broader plan to build “super rapid and efficient cross-chain trading infrastructure,” even in a choppy market. He noted that the company is still expanding its team “rapidly and aggressively” to support that vision.

How The Acquisition Strengthens Pump.fun’s Terminal

Pump.fun originally launched as a simple token-creation and trading tool on Solana and later expanded into more advanced tools. In late 2025, it acquired another multi-chain terminal, Padre, and rebranded it as Terminal, offering users professional features such as limit orders, copy trading, and multi‑chain support.

Vyper provides additional infrastructure and automation built around Pump.fun’s ecosystem, including tools such as a “Pumpfun sniper” that targets new listings in the first blocks after launch. By integrating Vyper into Terminal, Pump.fun can reuse the execution engine and strengthen the integration between launchpad, trading bots, and pro charts.

The Terminal team said EVM support is now a core focus and that Vyper’s stack will “massively improve” trading on chains like Base and Ethereum. This should help Terminal compete with other trading bots and terminals that already dominate EVM volume.

What It Means for Meme Traders and the Multi-Chain Push

Pump.fun has become one of the busiest apps in crypto, with data from The Block showing that around 30,000 tokens were launched in a single day on February 2, up from fewer than 10,000 per day in October 2025. That kind of volume creates demand for better trading tools that can track, snipe, and manage positions across multiple chains.

By acquiring both Padre and Vyper, Pump.fun is seeking to control a larger share of the meme coin trading pipeline, from token launch to advanced execution. For traders, the immediate effect should be a more powerful Terminal product with faster execution and better EVM connectivity, while Vyper’s separate interface gradually disappears.
