BNB Chain-based memecoin issuance platform GraFun is expanding to the Ethereum network on Wednesday, the project’s developers shared with CoinDesk.

“In just 1.5 months since the platform debuted, it saw already 13.6K plus memecoins launch with an overall volume of $430 million,” GraFun told CoinDesk in a Telegram message. “Even when only operating on one chain, it became the top-performing memecoin launchpad on any EVM-compatible chain.”
Expanding to Ethereum will help GraFun capture newer audiences, tap into higher liquidity for meme issuances and increase the platform’s visibility among crypto traders.
The most popular examples of memecoin launchpads that use a “Fair Curve” model kind of model are Pump on Solana - which pioneered such a model - and Tron’s Sun Pump.
Pump.fun has earned over $150 million in fees in the last six months alone and is currently projected to generate $400 million in annual fees. SunPump has earned $5.4 million in fees since launching in August.
