Pump.fun sends 76,111 SOL to Kraken amid fee-model pressure

A 76,111 SOL transfer put roughly $6.85 million of Solana liquidity on Kraken as criticism of Pump.fun’s fees intensified.

A 76,111 SOL transfer put roughly $6.85 million of Solana liquidity on Kraken as criticism of Pump.fun’s fees intensified. Solana (SOL) is trading at ₹8,562 ($90.57). This is an original Token Times brief based on reporting by Crypto.news, with live market data added, as of Fri, 06 Nov 2026 17:00:02 UTC.

Why it matters

The deposit places a material amount of SOL on a centralized exchange, although the transfer alone does not establish that the tokens were sold. It also highlights competitive pressure on Pump.fun’s fee model as traders consider Robinhood an alternative.

  2. Pump.fun sends 76,111 SOL to Kraken amid fee-model pressure — this brief

Crypto.news reported that Pump.fun moved 76,111 SOL, worth approximately $6.85 million, to Kraken. The outlet cited an on-chain update from Lookonchain dated Nov. 6 and said the movement followed a 15-day pause. The reported destination and amount were not independently corroborated by another outlet in the supplied coverage. The transfer came amid criticism of Pump.fun’s fee structure. Crypto.news also reported that some traders viewed Robinhood as a potential challenger, reflecting dissatisfaction with the existing platform rather than a confirmed change in market leadership. Robinhood’s reported total value locked was $570.1 million, down 2.4% over seven days according to DeFiLlama.

The Kraken deposit puts the SOL on an exchange where holders can trade or withdraw it, but the available information does not show whether Pump.fun sold the tokens, supplied liquidity for another purpose or was simply repositioning funds. The on-chain amount therefore should not be treated as proof of a sale or of any particular market outcome.

Solana was priced at $90.64, up 0.32% over 24 hours but down 4.06% over seven days, with a $53.5 billion market capitalization. Pump.fun’s PUMP token traded at $0.0040439, up 2.25% over 24 hours and 0.28% over seven days, while its market capitalization stood at $1.86 billion. Across the broader crypto market, capitalization was $2.62 trillion and broadly flat; Bitcoin fell 0.34% over 24 hours, while the Fear & Greed index registered 28, indicating fear.

The development keeps attention on whether the reported SOL movement is followed by exchange supply changes and whether traders’ pressure over fees produces greater use of competing services. In the near-term market context, SOL’s seven-day decline contrasts with PUMP’s modest gains, while the broad market remains subdued and sentiment stays in fear territory.

What this means in rupee

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 SOL ≈ ₹9,351.35 (about $90.57), up 0.3% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 9.2% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
