A report from Solidus Labs unveiled that 98.6% of tokens on Pump.fun are categorized as rug pulls or pump-and-dump schemes on the Solana blockchain.
Solana's low fees and user-friendly DEX have made it a hub for meme coin scams, with Solidus warning investors of the growing memecoin fraud in the ecosystem.
Pump.fun, a Solana-based token platform, witnessed daily trading volumes exceeding $100 million, driven by speculative meme coin activity, with a majority of tokens collapsing into worthless schemes soon after launch.
The platform faced legal troubles, including class-action lawsuits for allegedly violating U.S. securities laws and revenue crashes due to disturbing broadcasts by token creators.
