Hackers have taken over its account on X (formerly Twitter) and began spreading a fake cryptocurrency "PUMP," claiming that it is the official governance token for the platform. Soon after, they offered the token "GPT-4.5," promising to delete the account if its market capitalization reaches $100 million. Representatives of Pump.fun warned users not to interact with the hacked account and stated that an investigation into the incident is underway.
