Pump.fun Traders: How to Recover SOL from Empty Token Accounts
Trading on Pump.fun creates dozens of empty accounts daily. Learn how much SOL you're losing and how to recover it automatically with SolWipe.
Pump.fun has become the go-to launchpad for Solana meme coins. If you've been trading on Pump.fun, you're creating empty token accounts at an alarming rate. Every token you buy creates an account. Every token you sell (or that goes to zero) leaves that account behind with 0.00204 SOL locked inside.
The Pump.fun problem is worse than regular trading. On platforms like Jupiter or Raydium, you might trade established tokens that you hold for days or weeks. On Pump.fun, the nature of meme coins means you often buy and sell within minutes or hours. Some traders cycle through 20-50 tokens in a single session.
Let's do the math
If you trade 20 Pump.fun tokens per day and sell all of them, you create 20 empty accounts per day. Over a week, that's 140 empty accounts locking 0.29 SOL. Over a month, 600 accounts locking 1.22 SOL. Over three months, nearly 2,000 accounts locking 4 SOL. That's real money disappearing into invisible accounts.
Many Pump.fun traders don't realize how much SOL they're losing this way. They focus on profit and loss from trades but forget about the steady drain from rent deposits. For traders who are break-even or slightly profitable, recovering rent deposits can be the difference between a losing and winning month.
