Promote with Leviathan NewsSecond time Pump.fun's own social got popped in 14 months — the Feb 2025 X hack extracted ~$600k pushing fake $PUMP governance, and every subsequent celebrity IG hijack (Adele, Pudgy Penguins' CEO shilling $IGLOO) used Pump.fun as the payload venue. With 98.6% of tokens already rug-pulling per Solidus Labs and daily revenue down 85% from the $14M peak, verified account takeovers extend the rug-shilling pipeline one more hop. Attack surface keeps growing right as they pivot multi-chain beyond Solana.
