As the heat rises this summer, so does a new creator-first movement fueled by two of Web3’s most explosive platforms: Pump.fun and Soulbound.TV.
On the heels of $PUMP’s viral memecoin launch and $SBX’s, the pair are proving that creator-owned platforms can do what Twitch, TikTok, and Facebook won’t: share the upside with the people who generate it.
Pump.fun lit the match. Soulbound.TV built the creator economy that follows.
StreamFi Summer Is Heating Up
First came DeFi Summer. Then NFT Summer. Now, StreamFi Summer is underway—and Soulbound.TV is leading the charge.
Among early movers like Abstract, Arena, and Sidekick, Soulbound.TV has emerged as the most complete and creator-centric platform, not just layering crypto on top of video, but completely rebuilding streaming around an interactive, financialized creator economy.
Inside a Soulbound.TV stream, fans can:
-
Bet in live prediction markets
-
Post or claim on-chain bounties
-
Trade along with DeFi streamers
-
Tip in any token
-
Deploy or earn from AI Agents
-
Soon: Stake capital to traders or creators and share in profits
“It feels like DeFi in 2020, but for entertainment,” said one early user.
Soulbound.TV is currently open for anyone to stream and has already hosted high-profile events, including a recent stream with esports legends Babybay, Sinatraa, and Tarik, some of the largest streamers in the world.
Soulbound x Pump.fun: The Culture + Code Alliance
While Pump.fun ignited meme culture with $PUMP and a $5.6B valuation, Soulbound.TV is putting that cultural energy to work, turning streams into sovereign economies with $SBX at the center.
And they’re not alone. Soulbound.TV is:
-
Integrated with: AVAX Gaming, Boinkers, Xcohost, and Open Loot
-
Backed by: Animoca Brands, a leading Web3 gaming and IP investor
-
Built on: Base for speed, low gas, and transparent smart contract infrastructure
Pump.fun = chaotic, fun, viral, culture-hacking memecoin energy.
Soulbound.TV = enduring creator-owned infrastructure built on top of that cultural momentum.
Together, Pump.fun and Soulbound.TV represents a new creator stack, where memes create demand, and ownership-based platforms capture and sustain it.
Two Davids, One Mission: End the Era of Exploitation
For too long, creators have been at the mercy of Web2 platforms that profit from their work while locking them into algorithmic black boxes, delayed payouts, and ad-based scraps.
Pump.fun proved that users can generate billions in value when given the right tools.
Soulbound.TV is proving they can keep that value—instantly, on-chain, and without middlemen.
“This isn’t just a product shift,” says the Soulbound.TV team.
“It’s a culture shift. And creators are done waiting to get paid.”
Two Davids. One mission. And the Web2 Goliaths are running out of runway.
