Pump Fun memecoin streams
The world of cryptocurrency has always been unusual, but Pump Fun has taken things to an extreme level. The Pump Fun platform focuses on memecoins, often based on internet jokes. Recently, the platform faced serious backlash because of disturbing livestreams that spread on social media. These livestreams were shocking enough that pump.fun had to turn off its livestream feature. This came after the platform made a huge $14.3 million in revenue in a single day.
Disturbing Memecoin Streamed on Pump Fun
The livestreams on Pump Fun caused a lot of concern. In these streams, some developers made violent threats unless their coin prices went up. Others posted racist or disgusting content just to get attention and make their tokens more popular. This type of behavior is not new for Pump Fun, but it has never gone this far before.
Before this issue, pump.fun had already been known for hosting controversial content. Many compared it to the online forum 4chan because of its unfiltered and edgy posts.
The Pump Fun had also allowed racially insensitive or explicit memecoins, but things got worse with the recent live streams. The platform’s pseudonymous founder, Alon, said they would take steps to prevent users from seeing harmful content. However, they had to remove many streams, including one where a user threatened to hurt their pet.

He added strange challenges to entertain or shock the audience, like eating dog food on camera. This stunt went viral, but it also raised questions about how far developers will go to get attention for their coins.
The 10-Year-Old Rugger: $QUANT
In another bizarre stunt, a 10-year-old launched a memecoin $QUANT on Pump Fun and then scammed investors out of $30,000. After his scam, the crypto community reacted by boosting the coin’s value to $56 million, making the child’s holdings worth over $1 million. This strange turn of events became a meme, with people creating new coins for the child’s family members.
Live on Toilet Until $50M Market Cap: $SHITCOIN
Another developer, who looked like the controversial Sam Bankman-Fried, promised to do humiliating things as his coin’s market cap grew. He shaved his eyebrows on stream, then made a more extreme promise: at $20 million, he would soil himself on camera. Later, he streamed from a toilet, saying he wouldn’t leave until his coin hit $50 million.
