The post Bybit to Host PUMP Token Sale, But Europe Users Barred appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Update (July 9, 2:10 pm UTC): This article has been updated to include token sale confirmation from Pump.fun. Bybit has confirmed details of the much-awaited Pump.fun token sale, revealing that users registered through its European Union-regulated platform, Bybit.eu, will not be able to participate, citing compliance with the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). The public sale of PUMP, the native token of the no-code memecoin launchpad Pump.fun, will open on Saturday at 14:00 UTC and run through Tuesday, according to a Wednesday press release shared with Cointelegraph. A total of 150 billion PUMP tokens, 15% of the 1 trillion total supply, will be offered at a fixed price of $0.004 USDT per token. Bybit, currently the world’s second-largest crypto exchange by trading volume, is the only major platform participating in the sale, the announcement said. A number of other exchanges will also support the token sale. Bybit will support subscriptions in USDt (USDT), USDC (USDC), Solana (SOL) and bbSOL, providing access to both stablecoins and Solana-native assets. Bybit has become the second major crypto exchange to reveal details about the upcoming PUMP token sale, following a slip by Gate.io. On Tuesday, Gate.io briefly published a page outlining a $600 million PUMP token sale, which was quickly taken down. In a Wednesday post on X shortly after the sale was revealed by Bybit, Pump.fun officially announced the token sale. “Our plan is to Kill Facebook, TikTok, and Twitch. On Solana,” the platform wrote.
