Pump.fun Vanishes and Reappears on X—Memecoin World Left Shaken
Pump.fun’s sudden disappearance from X triggered a wave of speculation, paranoia, and market uncertainty—only for the account to quietly return less than 24 hours later, with no explanation in sight.
On June 16, without warning, the official X account of Pump.fun, a popular Solana-based memecoin launchpad, was abruptly suspended. Co-founder Alon Cohen’s personal handle (@a1lon9) vanished shortly after, compounding the confusion.
It didn’t stop there. Other accounts tied to notable token platforms—GMGN, Bloom Trading, ElizaOS—were also caught in the digital blackout. The sweeping nature of the suspensions led to wild theories: Was X cracking down on crypto? Were regulators pulling strings behind the scenes? Or was it simply overzealous moderation gone rogue?
And then—silence ended. The accounts reappeared just as suddenly as they had disappeared. Still, no comment from X. No reasoning. No clarity
