Cupsey (CUPSEY) is a meme coin on the [[Solana]] blockchain launched through [[pump.fun]] in January 2026. It is built around the plush cup character best known as the avatar of [[Cupsey]], the pseudonymous trader who topped Solana profit leaderboards in 2024 and 2025, and it positions itself as the unofficial plushie mascot of pump.fun itself.

## Origin

By 2026 the cup shaped plushie was one of the most recognized identities in [[the trenches]], and several tokens had already traded on the name, including an earlier CUPSEY generation now labeled as legacy by trackers such as Forbes. The January 2026 token consolidated the meme. Its stated concept, per the project description carried by Phantom, is "the plushie mascot token of Pump.fun," paired with a physical merchandise layer: an actual Cupsey plushie produced with an Etsy and TikTok vendor, aimed at reaching buyers outside crypto. The project also claims that a plushie is donated to a children's hospital for each one purchased, a claim that comes from the project itself and has not been independently verified.

## Market history

The token graduated on pump.fun in January 2026 and built slowly rather than spiking, unusual for the category. Tracker data shows an all time high price of about 0.0143 dollars, an implied market capitalization of about 14 million dollars on its roughly billion token supply, with the strongest stretch coming during the June and July 2026 mascot rotation. As of mid August 2026 it trades at a market capitalization of about 12 million dollars per Phantom and Solana Compass data, close to its highs while most peers of its vintage had round tripped.

## Community story

Crypto Twitter taxonomies of mid 2026 summarized the coin as "trenches mascot." Its community leans on the physical plushie as proof of effort, on TikTok distribution, and on the halo of the trader whose name it borrows, although the trader is not a confirmed operator of the project. The coin is a standard example of the 2026 pattern of tribute tokens around trench celebrities, sitting alongside coins named for streamers and callers.

## Current status

CUPSEY remains one of the more resilient mid caps of the 2026 cohort, actively traded on PumpSwap and Meteora with over 13,000 holders as of August 2026.
