X Suspends Pump.fun and 19 Other Crypto Accounts

On June 16, the social network X suspended the accounts of the “meme-token factory” Pump.fun and its founder.

Alongside them, at least 19 other cryptocurrency-related accounts were also suspended. The accounts display the standard message regarding a violation of X’s rules.

A user known as Otto compiled a list that includes trading platforms GMGN and BullX, Bloom Trading, and the AI tool Eliza OS.

Representatives of GMGN reported on Telegram that they are contesting the decision and are negotiating with X for a swift restoration of access.

Users noted that the social network does not allow even tweets containing a link to the Pump.fun website to be published.

The crypto community is discussing several theories about the incident. One theory suggests the suspensions are linked to the use of third-party APIs that bypass X’s paid subscription. The cost of the official API for startups starts at $60,000 per year.

Other users believe that the reason was a mass filing of complaints against the accounts.

Legal Troubles

There are also rumors circulating that the suspension might be linked to a court order.

Earlier this year, Pump.fun faced legal issues in the United States. New York firm Burwick Law announced it was preparing a lawsuit against the platform on behalf of investors who lost “significant sums.”

Following the account suspension, the lawyers handling the case stated they already represent over 500 investors who may have lost money due to tokens launched through Pump.fun.

Back in February, the X account of Pump.fun was hacked to promote fraudulent coins. The project team regained access to the account on the same day.
