Pump.fun has sparked controversy due to users spreading violent behavior through live broadcasts, and the team has arranged for personnel to review content around the clock
ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, recently Pump.fun faced community criticism for users spreading violence and harmful behavior through live broadcasts, leading to calls for enhanced content moderation or the shutdown of the live streaming feature. One user threatened during a live stream that they would self-harm if their token did not reach its market cap target; others threatened to commit domestic violence or even school shootings, with community members pointing out that the feature has become "completely out of control."
Platform head Alon responded that Pump.fun has arranged for a team to review live streams, images, and comments around the clock, and is actively responding to the growing demand. However, the community is urging the platform to suspend the live streaming feature until moderation tools are improved and to take more transparent measures to prevent similar incidents from occurring.
