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.
