Overview
A recent large-scale suspension of accounts associated with Pump.fun, including co-founder Alon Cohen’s, has sparked discussions about potential enforcement actions regarding platform policies and regulations.
Key Highlights
- On June 16, 2025, X blocked the official Pump.fun account and Alon Cohen’s personal profile, triggering concerns about regulatory scrutiny.
- No official explanation was given for these suspensions, leading to speculation of either internal policy enforcement or regulatory oversight.
- Despite these actions, Pump.fun’s site remains functioning and continues to offer Solana-based memecoins.
The ongoing discourse in crypto circles considers various theories, including unauthorized activities, potential pump-and-dump scenarios, and early SEC engagements. Although these claims circulate, official confirmations are lacking. Last November, the platform had to disable live streaming features due to unsafe content complaints.
