New coins created on the pump.fun program per UTC day, counted by Tickerz from the Solana chain: one per successful create transaction on the program's mint authority. Graduations (curves that completed and moved to pump.fun's own exchange) print as a second line. Rulebook v0.1: finalized transactions only, each counted on the UTC day of its block time.
Hourly, from the chain. The newest complete day is on the record after the daily proof at about 12:00 UTC.
As first published
2026-10-06 is not timestamped yet. The daily proof at about 12:00 UTC adds it.
51,544 coinsLast timestamped: for 2026-10-05, recorded 2026-10-06 in digest 7f0338a4fc80a5fb, Bitcoin block 970,174. Proof
The number as first published is final for settlement. A revision by the source is shown beside it and never replaces it.
Fallback
If the RPC is down the hour is retried on the next run and the day stays open, marked provisional, and nothing settles. A day is complete at 00:00 UTC; a day that cannot be read is void.
Precision
Whole coins, one per successful create transaction, counted on the UTC day of its block time.
Cost to move
Cheap for the raw count: creating a coin costs about a transaction fee, so a bot can push creates. The graduation line costs real liquidity to move. A venue should settle on the line the rulebook names.
Grade
candidate. Counted from the chain by Tickerz with no third party in the path, so the number is Tickerz's own to license. The count is of creates, not of coins that traded; rulebook v0.2 adds a survival filter and the graduation line already prints beside it.
For a rulebook
Settle on the number Tickerz first recorded for $MINTS for the UTC day named in the contract, published at tickerz.com/x/mints and in GET /api/indices/mints, timestamped daily in Bitcoin with OpenTimestamps.
Arena
$MINTS for Oct 8. Forecast the number. Against Oct 6: 54,042 coins. The question, the rules.
