Pump.fun’s Latest Experiment Is Already Getting Weird

NBTCBy NBTC07/06/2026No Comments4 Mins Read

In brief

  • Pump.fun’s GO platform lets users pay others to complete “ANY task,” and hundreds of bounties appeared within hours of launch.
  • Rewards reached as high as $50,000, though actual payouts on the platform have so far been far smaller.
  • Some of the high-profile listings sought interviews with a murderer’s relatives, public stunts, and permanent tattoos in exchange for crypto rewards.

Pump.fun will now pay you to do almost anything, and people are already lining up to do the strangest things possible.

On Thursday, the Solana meme coin launchpad launched GO, a bounty platform built around the slogan “Pay ANYONE to do ANYTHING,” and within hours, users had posted hundreds of tasks, including one offering roughly $2,650 for someone to get a token’s ticker tattooed “on the forehead.”

“Humans & money are undeniably the most powerful tools on Earth,” Pump.fun tweeted. “We’re combining both of them with GO: an all encompassing bounty platform where ANYONE can create or complete bounties for ANY task for UNLIMITED rewards.”

Introducing pump fun GO: Pay ANYONE to do ANYTHING

Create & complete bounties for ANY task and leverage the power of humans & money across the globe

— Pump.fun (@Pumpfun) June 4, 2026

Users connect an X account and wallet, post a task, and lock rewards in escrow starting at $5, while Pump.fun reviews submissions and determines payouts.

At the time of writing, GO listed 234 live bounties, 494 submissions, and a $118,000 unclaimed pool.

Anything goes

The biggest rewards remain unclaimed on the platform.

Earlier, the highest-paying bounty offered up to $50,000 for someone to skydive into a World Cup match in a meme coin mascot costume, requiring footage “verified through any media agency” and specifying that the video “cannot be AI.”

By the time of writing, however, the listing had disappeared, with the site stating, “This bounty has vanished. It may have been closed, removed by a moderator, or never published.”

The top remaining listing, worth roughly $23,525, sought an interview with either a family member of the person responsible for Henry Nowak’s death or the lead police officer on the case, requesting at least two minutes of unedited footage and noting that “the more viral the interview the better.”

Below it sat $15,204 to beat a running world record, $12,199 to organize a “NEET March” through New York City, $11,034 to help a token win Pump.fun’s own hackathon, $3,989 to host a “best butt contest,” and $9,103 to “Interview a Billionaire On Biological Intelligence.”

Further down the board, the tasks turn stranger and, in places, riskier.

Bounties asked people to set a branded car alight, streak an NBA Finals game, fart through a megaphone in a lecture, pour milk over themselves, hand out 100 jars of pineapple Kool-Aid to homeless people, get Elon Musk to engage a token on X, and bail someone out of jail.

One entrant in the roughly $2,876 “Quit Your Job on Camera” bounty livestreamed the attempt on Kick and said he was fired from another job in the process, writing, “This was worth it for the sol.”

The actual money has been thin. Since the launch, the top earner collected $487.11 in a single payout, followed by wallets that took home $346.72 and $275.49.

Meanwhile, the biggest spender paid out $1,707 across 11 bounties.

An acquisition play

Pump.fun’s escrow-and-moderation setup may not be enough to keep harmful bounties off the platform, Musheer Ahmed, founder and managing director of Finstep Asia, told Decrypt.

“While escrow systems can work, when combined with moderation, it is likely that this is an automated process,” he said, adding such systems have not proven fully effective on platforms like Instagram and X, and that creators can pay out and coordinate with users off-platform anyway.

“It feels like it is an attempt by pump.fun to retain users/attract non-crypto native users,” he said, comparing it to task-based creators like MrBeast, noting it really doesn’t have much to do with “tokens, NFTs, and crypto in general.”

We’ve been here before

GO formalizes a pay-for-stunts incentive that has repeatedly turned dangerous on Pump.fun.

The launchpad pulled its livestreaming feature in 2024 after an influx of contentious streams that included animal cruelty, self-harm, and a faked suicide.

Pump.fun revived livestreaming at the start of 2025 with new moderation, then leaned into “creator capital markets,” pairing viral stunts with tradable tokens.

Pump.fun did not respond to a request for comment.
