Pump.fun has announced an experimental Mayhem mode that allows AI agents to join newly launched token trenches. As before, most agents relied on human assistants, but automated bidding is a new step for AI agents and memes.
Pump.fun announced the addition of Mayhem mode as a tool to increase initial trading volume by incorporating AI agents. The meme platform did not explicitly announce Mayhem mode or the agents involved, instead allowing the community to discover the additions in the document. The AI agent does not create new tokens, unlike previous experiments with agent generation. meme.

'Mayhem Mode aims to increase the number of good projects in the pump.fun ecosystem by making coin projects more attractive in their early stages, when they would normally fail.” described Pump.fun in the documentation.
This agent, presumably called BUPA, only owned its own native BUPA token and additional Mayhem. token. The agent became active on November 12th and only had a few hours of trading before the community discovered it.

For now, the AI agent has no significant transactions, but may participate in the tokens in random transactions. Volume growth due to AI activity will occur within the first 24 hours after token launch. Pump.fun posted a disclaimer stating that Mayhem Mode does not add economic value to the tokens or guarantee future performance.
Pump.fun's AI agent mints additional supplies
Pump.fun token creators must select Mayhem mode before launching their token. This model does not deploy to existing tokens on the Pump.fun bonding curve or to staged tokens.
The AI agent will mint an additional 1 billion tokens for each meme supply, bringing the total to 2 billion. The AI agent then randomly trades using the tokens. Experimental features may make your initial trades more risky and volatile. Agents buy and sell tokens with randomly selected actions.
At the end of the 24 hours, the AI agent burns all unsold tokens. All tokens sent to the AI agent wallet during the initial Mayhem mode period will be burned and cannot influence buy or sell decisions. The AI agent can randomly sell more tokens, which depletes the bonding curve and prevents human traders from selling.
Given the prevalence of sniping bots, AI agents may not always compete with humans, but with simpler trading bots.
Pump.fun Trench speed decreases
Pump.fun activity is once again experiencing a downturn, with new token creation decreasing and graduations decreasing. Daily token creation will be reduced to 12,000-15,000. Daily active addresses are down to about 31,000 from a peak of more than 200,000 about a year ago.
Less than 4,000 wallets are issuing new tokens, which has declined after the initial hype of the creator rewards program. The lower the number of tokens, the higher the rating.
Pump.fun continues to buy back PUMP, keeping the token stable around $0.004. So far, Pump.fun and PumpSwap are achieving $2.8 million in fees per day, which is enough to buy back a portion of the PUMP token supply.
