X has launched what seems to be a radical performance in the Memecoin sector and has issued a wave of suspensions that claimed several victims, including Pump.Fun and the founder.
On Monday, June 16, 2025, the official platform for the Solana-based Memecoin Launchpad Pump.Fun and his co-founder Alon Cohen were taken offline from the social media platform X (formerly Twitter).
If accessible, each now shows the message ‘account suspended’, accompanied by X’s standard message for violations of its platform rules.
The move seems to be part of a broader enforcement action aimed at accounts that are linked to the Memecoin sector. More than 20 accounts have been affected, including those linked to trading platforms BullX, Bloom Trading, GMGN, among other things.
Many of the suspended accounts are associated with BOT infrastructure or automated commercial aids, which are often used for launching tokens, cutting early transactions and managing memecoin positions.
Although X does not yet have to issue an official explanation, speculation is to mount that the move is largely linked to pump. Fun’s controversial services. Since the debut, the platform has been given a huge grip to enable users to easily make and trade new tokens.
However, this ease of access has also fueled an increase in malignant launches, including meme tokens that end in carpet trekkings or pump and dump schemes. This aspect of the platform has often drawn control, even resulting in two lawsuits earlier in January.
Others in the entire community to suggest That the suspensions may be due to the use of APIs from third parties by the accounts affected, a practice X that was officially banned in January 2023.
Neither Pump.fun nor the founder has tackled the X account suspensions and it is still to be seen whether the removals are temporary or permanent. One of the other affected platforms, GMGN, announced Via Telegram that it is aware of the suspension and is in contact with the platform in the hope of restoring access.
