The post It’s been 365 days since Pump Fun promised an airdrop was ‘coming soon’ appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Tomorrow marks one year since memecoin platform Pump Fun announced that an airdrop for its PUMP token would be “coming soon.” Users are still waiting. The promise was made on July 9, 2025, during a Pump Fun marketing push that tried to paint itself as a competitor against social media giants Facebook, TikTok, and Twitch. It also announced its ICO of the platform’s token, PUMP, which is now down almost 75% since its launch almost a year ago. Pump Fun Chief Operating Officer, Alon Cohen, tempered expectations one day after the airdrop pledge, saying that it wouldn’t be happening in the “immediate future.” Users, including crypto influencer Ansem (real name Zion Thomas), have been begging for Pump Fun to make good on its airdrop promise ever since. the moment you’ve all been waiting for$PUMP is launching through an Initial Coin Offering on Saturday, July 12th. airdrop c
The post Pump Fun is unlocking $127M insider tokens worth double PUMP’s recent daily volume appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Pump.fun built one of crypto’s fastest meme-token liquidity machines. Now, on July 12, its own token faces the kind of liquidity test the platform usually creates for others. The platform’s PUMP token is set to unlock on July 12, with Tokenomist valuing it at $127 million, equal to 29.23% of the circulating supply. The scheduled release is tied to insider allocations: Tokenomist’s weekly unlock digest describes the tranche as flowing to team and early investors, while its PUMP vesting page identifies the next release as Existing Investors. That matters because PUMP is facing a large scheduled release against an order book that recently showed far less daily turnover than the unlock size. CryptoSlate market pages showed PUMP trading near $0.00155 on July 8, with 24-hour volume between roughly $64 million and $70 million across the PUMP asset page and the broad
The post Meta’s Muse Image pulls public Instagram photos into AI unless users opt out appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
On July 7, Meta unveiled Muse Image, which is the first independent image generation model from Meta Superintelligence Labs (MSL). The new image generation capabilities are already incorporated into the Meta AI app, Instagram, and WhatsApp. Facebook and Messenger will gain the same feature in the coming weeks. Interestingly, a new default setting will enable people to use pictures from their public Instagram accounts to create AI images. The settings allow anyone to do so unless they choose to opt out. This change could have an impact on a considerable segment of Instagram users. Instagram reaches a coverage of approximately 3 billion users in 2026. However, it is not specified with accuracy which portion of these accounts remains public. All public accounts have a right-by-default to opt out of the opt-out feature. Thus, to prevent misuse of one’s images, the owne

Meta is launching the first AI image generation model made by its Superintelligence Labs division. The Muse Image model now powers the image-making tools across the Meta AI app, Instagram, and WhatsApp, and it's coming soon to Facebook and Messenger, according to an announcement on Tuesday.
It's part of the growing Muse family of AI models that replace Meta's Llama lineup. Alexandr Wang, who Meta hired to head up its Superintelligence Labs last year, says on Threads that Muse Image is "agentic," meaning it works with its Muse Spark large language model "to reason through your prompt, search the web, and plan before it generates." Meta is al …

The post Think Your Facebook Was Hacked? Here’s What To Do Next appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Young man sits on sofa using smartphone. If a hacker takes over your social media, like Facebook, the first step to regain account access is to determine if you still have access to the account. Getty Facebook hacking — the takeover of your account by a criminal — can happen to anybody.
