Telegram Pump-and-Dump Network Earned $800,000

PumpCell Network's Methods

A new forensic examination by Solidus Labs has revealed that a group named PumpCell has been conducting synchronized token launches, attack bot acquisitions, and meme-focused promotional campaigns which elevate micro-scale tokens to seven-figure valuations within minutes.

800 Thousand Dollars Profit

The group is estimated to have generated approximately 800,000 dollars in profit in October 2025. During this transaction process, they aimed to evade compliance checks by transferring funds through a centralized exchange and an over-the-counter cash broker.

Monitoring Challenges and Risks

Solidus states that the features of automated market maker (AMM) focused markets, bot executions, and cross-chain anonymity make the detection of such frauds difficult. Additionally, it emphasizes that the PumpCell model reflects a broader and more complex pattern of misuse regarding digital assets.
