Three major stories shaking up the space right now.

First up: Pump.fun's co-founder is pushing back hard against claims of a $436 million cash-out. They're framing it as standard treasury operations, not some sketchy exit. The crypto community isn't fully buying it yet.

Meanwhile, Upbit just got hit for $37 million worth of Solana-based tokens. We're talking BONK, MOODENG, PENGU, and even TRUMP meme coins walking out the door. Security concerns are flaring up again across centralized platforms.

And here's the wild one: some trader reportedly flipped $11K into nearly half a billion dollars riding the meme coin wave. Digital Ascension tracked this insane run. Whether luck or skill, it's the kind of story that keeps people gambling on the next 100x.
