Pump.fun hackers launches pump same
On Wednesday, the official Pump.fun account was compromised, the pirates promoting different tokens during the incident. The account began to publish various contract addresses (CA) for various same before deleting them.
The pirates initially shared Pump’s contact address, the “governance token of the official pump”, declaring that “democracy has never been so degenerating” and that they would reward their “OG Degens”.
The cryptographic community quickly identified the same as a scam and alerted other users of the potential compromise of the account.
The blockchain data firm, Bubblemaps, warned users of the same memecoin, explaining that the pump was “strongly grouped and spilled” because 60% of the supply of the token was held in two bunches.

According to the investigator of the dephecal chain, the hackers extracted around $ 600,000 from the token a few minutes after sharing the same. The Sleuth Crypto explained that their strategy was to publish the CA of a grouped scam token and remove it after rupture investors.
In addition to the false pump token, the malicious actor favored the OG, the protocol extract (Exai) and the pump. Déthèvement noted that some investors continue to buy the tokens after the hackers have repeatedly robust the previous ones, the last token reaching a market capitalization of 1.5 million dollars at the top.
The malicious actors asked the cryptographic community if they were to create a “legitimate token on pump.fun” and call it “hackeddotfun”. They “promised” to pump the same to a market capitalization of $ 100 million, ensuring that it would not be “a package” and would be launched via the platform before removing the publications.

The famous Zachxbt chain detective revealed that the pump compromise.
On its telegram channel, the Sleuth Internet suggested that the attacks are “probably not the fault of the Pump.fun or Jupiter teams”. Instead, Zach suspects that a threat player is “social engineering employees at X with fraudulent documents / e-mails or a panel is exploited”.
Wu Blockchain shared GMGN data revealing that one pump. The post detailed that several tokens had reached the barrier of a million dollars but quickly experienced a clear drop.
Following the same of Trump and Melania and the recent controversy of the Libra tokens, investors expressed the exhaustion of the continuous scams of the same deployed via the Launchpad based in Solana.
Some members of the community have called the piracy “The Nail on the Same Coin Coon” because the feeling surrounding the “same fiesta” in the sector is at its lowest point this cycle.
