Decrypt’s 2024 Project of the Year: Solana Meme Machine Pump.fun
It started on a whim. Two devs, a laptop, and an idea to develop a platform for launching crypto tokens fairly, cheaply, and easily—all while minimizing the risk of scams. The product wasn’t perfect—far from it. And after launching in January, it arguably led to more crypto scams than would have existed without it; they just looked different. But by the end of the year, the Solana meme coin launchpad Pump.fun had become undeniably the most culturally significant crypto project of the year. Maybe...

'Talk Tuah Judge': Hawk Tuah Girl's Biz Partners Are Getting Sued Over Meme Coin Disaster
Legal firm Burwick Law has filed a U.S. federal lawsuit on behalf of investors against the creators of the influencer-pushed Hawk Tuah (HAWK) meme coin, which fell on its face in the hours following its launch. Haliey Welch, who gained notoriety this year as the “Hawk Tuah” girl following a viral interview about sexual techniques, was the face of a disastrous Solana meme coin launch at the start of the month. Not only did the price collapse 93% from a $490 million peak market cap, with rug pull...

Crypto asset manager Bitwise today announced its new Solana Staking ETP, which will trade in Germany on the Deutsche Börse AG. The fund gives investors the chance to earn bigger returns compared to other SOL products, Bitwise said, because it uses a staking mechanism....

Dogecoin and other leading meme coins are down over the past day, cooling off alongside major cryptocurrencies just one day after Bitcoin pushed to a new all-time high price above $108,000. But one recently hot meme coin is bucking the trend. Despite the doom and gloom elsewhere in the market, Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) just keeps rising. It's up 13% over the last 24 hours at a current price of $0.933, per data from CoinGecko, dipping slightly after climbing to a new all-time high price above $0.95 on...

Is the Hawk Tuah Girl Still Asleep? Hailey Welch MIA After Meme Coin Collapse
It’s been 13 days since Hailey Welch, aka the “Hawk Tuah” girl, said she was logging off and going to sleep amid furious backlash to her meme coin rollout. But now that her launch partners are starting to blame each other over the token’s disastrous debut, will she finally wake up? The day that Welch’s HAWK meme coin pumped and dumped earlier this month, eliciting widespread claims of rug-pulling and insider collusion, the influencer told an irate X Spaces audience of holders that she was going...

Not So 'Chill Guy': Solana Meme Coin Plummets After IP Creator's Accounts Hacked to Share Hoax
A weeks-long feud between the team behind a surging meme coin and the creator of the cartoon that inspired it appeared to reach a happy conclusion late Thursday—until it was revealed that the supposed armistice was fake news spread by a hacker, predictably causing the token to dump in the process. Could a sentence be more crypto than that? On Thursday evening, an X (formerly known as Twitter) account belonging to Philip Banks, creator of the beloved “Just a Chill Guy” meme, announced that he h...
