[Pump.fun Co-Founder: Success Came After Nine Failed Startups, Coinbase Is Not a Truly Successful Company] Odaily Planet Daily reports that in an interview video released by Delphi Digital, Pump.fun co-founder Noah (@sapijiju) stated that the team experienced as many as nine failed attempts before successfully launching Pump.fun. These attempts included an NFT launch platform, NFT AMM, creator financing tokenization, auditor revenue-sharing mechanisms, and a FriendTech fork project, all of which were unsuccessful. Due to a lack of large-scale funding, the team had to rely on support from a few angel investors until their ninth attempt, when they seized the market opportunity with Pump.fun. He also noted that Pump.fun's design actually incorporates elements from their previously failed products. Additionally, Noah criticized the current crypto industry for lacking truly successful companies and bluntly labeled Coinbase as a 'failed company,' arguing that its founder, Brian Armstrong, merely contributed to the commercialization of Bitcoin wallets.
