A 13-year-old boy was cheated by crypto traders after pulling a pump. A nice token he called Gen Z Quant. Traders doxxed his entire family and turned them into pump.fun tokens.
A 13-year-old boy has been caught in one of the most random carpet exercises the crypto community has ever seen. On November 20, the unnamed boy launched a token on pump.fun under the ticker QUANT and watched its price jump 260% just minutes after launch.
Less than an hour later, the boy dumps all his QUANT tokens, essentially pulling the rug out from under the traders who had bought the token minutes earlier. The boy made a profit of $30,000 by raising the price and selling all his tokens.
As if that wasn’t enough, he went online and gave the middle finger to the traders who were burned by QUANT’s carpet pull. He then did the same by launching another token with the same name, which he later dumped for another $12,000 in profits.
Not long after, more experienced traders took over and brought the token’s market cap to $70 million. The Gen Z Quant token he launched as an extended troll is currently trading at $0.05571, according to DEX Screener. It has risen to almost 50% in the last six hours, but is gradually going downhill at 13% in the last hour.
Although the boy managed to convert his initial $30,000 token into a $2.4 million token, the crypto community was not about to let his crime pass.
Traffickers began doxxing the boy’s family and locating his school, following their social media accounts and complaining about the money they lost thanks to the boy’s rug pulling. Soon, developers started launching new pump.fun tokens named after the boy’s relatives, with their profile pictures revealed to accompany them.
Pump.fun tokens with the ticker QUANT DAD, QUANT SIS and QUANT MOM are already circulating on the markets, as well as tokens accompanied by a photo of the boy’s entire family and their dog with the ticker CABAL.
“Kid risked his bloodline,” one user commented.

“Then the community put it at $135 million. He could have had 1.2 million. They then doxxed his name, address and school. The community has no roots,” said a user on X.
One trader called the boy “the future of finance,” while another reminded the community that this boy represents a twisted generation that is “optimized to do that to people.”
