Crypto Bounties Push Daredevils to Extreme Feats, Including Everest Climb

A new crypto bounty site, Pump.fun, is incentivizing extreme stunts—like tattooing 'bounty.fun' on foreheads, sticking faces in toilets, quitting jobs on camera, or climbing Mount Everest—for crypto rewards. Since launching June 4, it has paid more than $370,000 with about $200,000 still up for grabs across roughly 270 bounties. Some tasks are benign, others life-threatening; critics compare the platform to a Black Mirror scenario, while Pump.fun says participants take part at their own risk.

Israel Offers $400,000 Bounty on Hamas Leader's Head as Tensions Rise

Israel has dropped leaflets over Gaza offering cash rewards totaling $1 million for information leading to the capture of Hamas' top leadership, with the highest bounty of $400,000 for Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.

Maine town attracts meteorite hunters with $25,000 reward.

Meteorite hunters are flocking to the small town of Waite, Maine, in search of pieces of a meteor that fell to Earth near the Canadian border. The Maine Mineral and Gem Museum has offered a $25,000 bounty for any piece that weighs a little more than two pounds. However, the search may not be easy as the town is heavily forested and much of it is privately owned. The potential landing field for meteorites also includes part of New Brunswick near the town of Canoose.

Jermaine Dupri suggests Tekashi 6ix9ine attack was a bounty hit.

Hip hop producer Jermaine Dupri speculates that Tekashi 6ix9ine's recent assault was like a "bounty" with a reward for the first person to record it. Dupri expressed his concern about the perpetuation of violence on social media and the confusion it causes among black and brown people. Tekashi 6ix9ine was severely beaten by three men at a gym in South Florida, and his attackers yelled at him to "shut the f–k up" as they continued to pummel him.
