Pump.fun is accused of "organized gambling crimes," implicating top executives at the Solana blockchain foundation. CEO Anatoly Yakovenko skillfully avoided "9" court summons. (Background: Pump.fun rebounded over 60%, Group Coins could be the key to this meme competition) (Context: Data is bleak, the official Twitter account is "playing dead," while the public criticizes Pump.fun, I believe it might be the ultimate winner) Solana has become a star in the public blockchain space in recent years due to its high speed and low transaction fees. However, a RICO lawsuit (related to organized crime) against the memecoin platform Pump.fun is entangling the Solana team in legal turmoil. Prosecutors accuse Solana Labs, Solana Foundation, and Jito Labs of assisting Pump.fun in creating an "illegal digital casino," focusing particularly on Solana CEO Anatoly Yakovenko. Nine court summons were "unsuccessfully delivered." The lawsuit was jointly filed by Burwick Law and Wolf Popper, invoking the U.S. Organized Crime Control Act (RICO), naming CEO Yakovenko, co-founder Raj Gokal, Solana Foundation Chair Lily Liu, and Jito Labs CEO Lucas Bruder as defendants. The accusations state that Pump.fun accumulated approximately $722 million in revenue through rapid token minting, charging listing fees, and exploitative design, involving illegal gambling, fraud, and money laundering. Prosecutors emphasize that the Solana executives not only provided technology but also extracted profits from transactions through validator fees and MEV tools, surpassing the role of a mere infrastructure provider. Thus, Jito, as an MEV capture protocol, is also included in the list of defendants. However, the Solana executives and Jito Foundation executives have evaded court summons by claiming they "could not be found." This could potentially lead to delays in court proceedings or result in the defendants completely failing to appear in court. Is infrastructure also illegal? If the court finds that Solana and Jito Labs are "actively profiting," it would break the existing notion that public blockchains are merely neutral channels. On the other hand, Pump.fun's lack of KYC and AML mechanisms, along with its failure to verify user age, could legally be seen as a breeding ground for "unlicensed remittance services" and "money laundering."
