Within minutes, Anatoly Yakovenko (co-founder of Solana) reposted it. The coin graduated from pump.fun to Raydium almost instantly.
"Finally the greatest talents of our generation are no longer working in advertising."
— Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder of SolanaIn one night, pump.fun put JellyJelly on the map. We went from a scrappy app to a crypto-native community with 30,000 members and global media coverage.
But with the attention came responsibility. We had a community to build for. A product to earn.
*think Venmo 3.0
After the coin launch, we committed fully to the ecosystem. Here's what happened:
We launched the version of the app we're proud of.
Rebuilt from the ground up. Faster, cleaner, more authentic. The app that actually matches the vision.
Meet the Wobblers. These are our super users — they all buy the Wobbles plushie. We call them Wobblers, and they're growing across the world as the most engaged members of JellyJelly.
Wobbles also drives revenue: $13K in plushie sales so far.
JellyJelly was born on pump.fun. That's not a coincidence — it's the origin of our community.
Our dream is for pump.fun to be the anchor investor in a small SAFE at a $15M cap — or issue a grant. Then we roll out together: ACE, $JELLY coin phase two, and we do something cool.
We already have interest from Wobblers and Offline.vc in this new SAFE.
Raised $1.4M at a $10M SAFE from Slow Ventures, Offline VC, and Astar.
~1 year of runway remaining.
