StonkFun announced that it is now live on Raydium LaunchLab. Under the new setup, all new StonkFun deployments launch through LaunchLab, with lower deployment costs, reduced sniper risk and compounding liquidity after the bonding curve is completed.
Tokens issued on StonkFun begin on Raydium LaunchLab's bonding curve. Once they reach the graduation threshold, liquidity moves to a Raydium pool and can then circulate through Raydium and liquidity aggregators such as Jupiter.
StonkFun lets users create tokens paired with a wide range of assets, from cryptocurrencies, fiat currencies and commodities to tokenized stocks and ETFs. The platform's own STONK token is paired with SPYx, a Backed product designed to track the performance of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust. This creates a point of contact between memecoins, tokenized real-world assets and DEX liquidity.
However, STONK is not a stock and does not provide ownership of SPYx or its underlying asset. Trading STONK against SPYx simply creates a liquidity pair between two tokens. STONK's price is influenced both by SPYx and by its own supply and demand, so it can fall sharply even when the S&P 500 rises.
StonkFun has also built a flywheel mechanism that turns trading fees into buying pressure. The current official description says a share of fees from every v3 pool is used to buy back and burn the platform's top 15 tokens by market capitalization, weighted by market cap. This updates the original report, which referred to ten tokens.
Solana's official account also publicly interacted with StonkFun on X, highlighting the launchpad's growing visibility across the ecosystem.
RAY rose 56% over seven days to about $1.20, while Jupiter's JUP gained 22% to around $0.27 at the time of the original report.
Following the Raydium integration news, STONK jumped nearly 600% over the week and briefly reached an all-time high of $0.212 before cooling. At the time of the original report, the token traded near $0.14, giving it a market capitalization of roughly $122 million, while 24-hour trading volume was close to $100 million. Other market snapshots during the rally placed capitalization near $140 million.
STONK's sharp reversal followed a series of changes aimed at problems users had raised about launches on the platform, especially sniping, concentration of early purchases in one wallet and high deployment costs. StonkFun said the move to LaunchLab would directly address those weaknesses, while an earlier increase in the maximum developer purchase limit was intended to reduce the advantage of bots during a launch.
What comes next for STONK
The integration gives StonkFun better access to Raydium liquidity and improves the launch model, but it does not remove the risks of thin liquidity, speculative demand or rapid price reversals. After a rally of this scale, further performance will depend on whether launches attract sustained users and trading volume rather than short-term attention alone.
