The PUMP price points to a breakout of the multi-chain extension

PUMP prices rose on Thursday as traders speculated about the project’s potential expansion beyond its current ecosystem.

At press time, Pump.fun (PUMP) was trading at $0.00206, up nearly 4% in the last 24 hours. Over the past week, the token has traded between $0.001848 and $0.002108, keeping it close to its recent range.

The token has risen nearly 9% over the past month as buyers try to recover. However, PUMP remains at around 78% of its September 2025 peak.

Market activity increased as prices rose. The 24-hour trading volume reached about 111.1 million dollars, which is 32.4% more than the previous day.

Derivatives activity also picked up, with futures volume up 29% to $242 million, while open interest rose 3.52% to $177 million, according to CoinGlass. When both indicators converge, it usually indicates that traders are opening new positions rather than closing existing positions.

Rumors of a multi-chain expansion are attracting interest

Signs that Pump.fun may be poised to expand beyond Solana are largely responsible for the project’s recent surge in interest.

According to observers, the platform has recently registered a number of new subdomains linked to other networks such as Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base and Monad. This move is usually seen as early infrastructure work before launching services on additional chains.

At the same time, the project’s official social media profile has removed its “Solana” location tag, leading to speculation that a wider rollout may be coming.

The new development also came through a recent partnership with MoonPay, which allows users to fund Pump.fun accounts with assets stored on various blockchains. With this integration, deposits from networks such as Bitcoin, Polygon and Arbitrum are possible.

The process is managed in the background by MoonPay, which automatically converts assets and sends them to the platform.

Pump.fun itself continues to work on the Solana network, and the team has not officially announced a full multi-chain expansion. However, the integration has sparked speculation that coin creation and trading on the platform could eventually expand beyond the Solana ecosystem.

If this direction is taken, the platform will be able to access larger pools of liquidity from other networks. An increase in user activity and trading volume is likely to increase the platform’s revenue.

In the past, these funds were used to buy back PUMP, burn tokens, and invest in ecosystem development. However, some critics warn that multi-chain expansion could erode liquidity. Memecoins listed on the platform may be more volatile as a result.

Technical analysis of pump price

The PUMP appears to be entering a volatility spike that often precedes a major price move. After the last period of consolidation, the Bollinger Bands began to contract, indicating a decrease in volatility.

When bands tighten in this way, markets often react with a sharp move as price breaks out of the range. The last few candles have formed near the $0.002 support area where the token is currently trading. Buyers entered this level during the last pullback.

Momentum also shows some improvement. The relative strength index rose again to the mid-point of 50, indicating that selling pressure has eased after earlier declines.

In the shorter term, the price structure begins to make higher lows. This pattern sometimes occurs when the market stabilizes after a period of weakness.

At the moment, traders of the next level are watching the seats around $0.0022 – $0.0023, which coincides with the upper band of Bollinger. A move above this area could confirm volatility.

If the breakout holds, the market may enter a new phase of expansion. However, if the resistance holds, the token may move around the $0.002 level while traders wait for a clearer direction.
