Upcoming presale: Could this new AI Launchpad challenge Pump.fun?

As Pump.fun faces challenges, PepeX emerges as a new AI Launchpad contender, aiming to transform memecoin creation with fairness, transparency, and automation.

As Pump.fun struggles, a new potential challenger is rising — PepeX, an AI-powered memecoin launchpad. It’s a platform that favors those who missed out on early Pump.fun, with features like anti-sniping, transparent bubble maps, and anti-rug measures making actual fair launches.

Its AI token creation and marketing features make launching tokens so effortless that retail investors are bound to dive in, especially with a $1 trillion memecoin market waving back at them. PepeX’s highly anticipated presale is set to drop on 24th March and will run for 90 days, ending on 22nd June, with the pepex.fun platform launching in Q3. 

Why smart money is ready to flood into PepeX

By implementing anti-sniping protection, iron-clad liquidity locks, and wallet transparency, PepeX is making “fair launch” actually mean something.

The idea is that developer involvement is removed. AI handles smart contract generation and even auto-generates token tickers and branding. Automated marketing campaigns instantly roll out content across X and Telegram, while AI-powered bots handle community management.

No technical skills, no gatekeepers, just good ideas delivered and cranked up. It’s therefore no surprise that investors are keeping an eye on PepeX — the potential for a market takeover is apparent.

In January 2025, 99.60% of Pump.fun traders made less than $10k. This prompted PepeX to take a radical approach. For each token created on the platform, token creator holdings are capped at 5%, with the remaining 95% available for public trading. No more insider front-running. No more using the community as exit liquidity. 

The PEPX token: 2025’s biggest opportunity?

45% of the 5 billion PEPX supply will hit the market starting March 24th, selling via a 30-stage presale that will last 90 days. After each 3-day stage, prices will ramp up by 5%, meaning early birds are staring at potential 311% gains before the token enters the open market.

Notably, Pump.fun-launched tokens have already generated over $3 billion in market cap. Even during February’s slump, Pump.fun was still pulling $4m per day. If PepeX claims even a fraction of these figures, the PEPX token could surge significantly.

Conclusion

Getting in on Pump.fun before it surged — while it was still under $1m market cap — led to significant returns for many astute investors. 

PepeX’s presale starts on March 24th, then it will list prior to the launchpad itself going live in Q3.

Innovation tends to move fast in crypto, and the most lucrative opportunities often reward those who position themselves early. The signs are there; a proven market, technological edge, and a model designed to correct the flaws that held back previous platforms.

Tokens will be available on the PepeX website from the 24th of March.
