Alleged Pump.fun Exploiter Has Been Nabbed in London

As an experienced cybersecurity and financial crime analyst, I find the recent arrest of Jarett Reginald Dunn, also known as @STACCoverflow, to be a chilling reminder of the ever-evolving landscape of cryptocurrency-related crimes. Having spent years studying digital footprints and unraveling complex financial schemes, I can’t help but admire the tenacity and determination of the private intelligence firm that managed to trace Dunn’s digital breadcrumbs across social media.


The British law enforcement officials have apprehended the suspected mastermind of last week’s $2 million Solana memecoin heist. Jarett Dunn, previously employed by Pump.fun under the pseudonym @STACCoverflow on the internet, was taken into custody early Saturday at a hotel in Covent Garden after an extensive 26-hour search across international borders.

The pilfered tokens were mysteriously distributed as airdrops to random Solana users in an inexplicable money laundering scheme.

However, Dunn was granted bail but still faces criminal charges
