Pump.fun, the Solana meme coin launchpad, launched GO on Thursday, a bounty platform where users can pay anyone to do anything. Within hours, hundreds of tasks appeared, including offers up to $50,000 for stunts like skydiving into a World Cup match in a meme coin mascot costume. However, top rewards remain unclaimed, with actual payouts far lower—the highest earner collected $487.11. Some bounties seek interviews with a murderer's relatives, public stunts, and permanent tattoos. The platform uses an escrow and moderation system, but experts warn it may not prevent harmful tasks, as similar systems on Instagram and X have proven ineffective. This move is seen as an attempt to retain users and attract non-crypto natives, though it echoes dangerous past stunts on Pump.fun, which had to remove its livestream feature in 2024 due to animal cruelty and self-harm. Pump.fun revived livestreaming in 2025 with new moderation and now leans into creator capital markets.
