  • The plaintiff alleged violations of U.S. financial crime laws, including RICO and anti-money laundering regulations.
  • The complaint links Pump.fun to North Korea’s Lazarus Group and the Bybit hack.

The lawsuit against meme coin platform Pump.fun escalated further into the law firms Burwick Law and Wolf Popper now naming senior leaders from Solana Labs and Jito Labs as defendants.
