Pump.fun Hack: When Memecoins Go Rogue – Beware the Fake “PUMP” Token Scam!
Pump.fun’s X account was hacked, promoting a fake PUMP token. Dubbed the “official” governance token, it promised democracy in a degen package. As if that wasn’t enough, hackers introduced a GPT-4.5 token, aiming for a $100 million market cap. Pumpfun warns users to avoid their compromised account.
Hot Take:
Oh, the irony! Pump.fun, the platform famous for its memecoins, got its X account hacked and ended up being the butt of the joke. Imagine a prankster being pranked! It’s like watching a cat fall off a couch—hilarious but also slightly concerning. With this incident, Pump.fun just became the meme it always wanted to be, but not in the way it probably hoped.
Key Points:
– Pump.fun’s X account was hacked to promote a fraudulent “PUMP” token.
– The platform is a Solana-based memecoin generator.
– Hackers also promoted a token named “GPT-4.5” with dubious promises.
– Pumpfun warned users via Telegram not to interact with the compromised account.
– An investigation is underway to understand how the breach occurred.
