DOWN
BAD
Every hour we find the 30 most cooked wallets on pump.fun and send them a little something. Finally, a use case for being bad at this.
Every memecoin promises you'll make it. This one just pays you for the L.
Pump.fun runs on hope and it eats most of it. Thousands of wallets buy the top of a curve every hour and watch it bleed out. Nobody pays them for that — the fees go to the platform, the creator, the sniper who got there first.
Down Bad routes them somewhere else. The fee from every $DOWNBAD trade goes into a treasury that exists for one job: finding the wallets that took a real, realized loss in the last hour and handing some of it back.
It's not a hedge and it won't make your bag whole. It's a small, honest mechanism that says: yeah, we saw that trade. Here's something for the trouble.
How a round works
ape. get rekt. maybe get paid. repeat hourly.
You ape $DOWNBAD
Every buy and sell drips a fee. That fee is the whole prize pool — there's no VC, no team stash, no "ecosystem fund."
Fees hit the treasury
Collected in the open, in a wallet anyone can watch. Nothing moves before a round closes.
We scan pump.fun
At the top of every hour, we pull every realized loss across pump.fun — not just $DOWNBAD — and shortlist wallets that lost between $50 and $300.
Thirty wallets eat
The thirty worst losses in that band split the treasury. Straight to the wallet. No claiming, no forms, no DMs, no "gm."

Questions people actually ask
Do I need to hold $DOWNBAD to get paid?
No. Payouts go to whoever qualifies on realized losses across pump.fun, whether or not they've ever touched $DOWNBAD. Holding the coin funds the pool through trading fees — it doesn't buy you a spot on the leaderboard.
Why the $50–$300 range specifically?
Below $50, a loss is too cheap to fake and too small to mean much either way. Above $300 starts looking like whale territory, and the range gets easy to farm profitably with throwaway wallets. $50–$300 is where a loss is usually real and still painful.
What stops someone from faking a loss to win?
Wash-trading a "loss" on your own token, using a fresh burner wallet, or funding a batch of loser wallets from one source all get filtered out before ranking. If a pattern gets past the filters, the fix ships before the next round — this list is not static.
How do I know the treasury isn't just... kept?
The treasury wallet is public. Every round's shortlist, payout amounts, and transaction hashes are posted so the math can be checked by anyone, not taken on faith.
What happens if the treasury is empty when a round closes?
The round is skipped — no artificially small payouts just to keep the schedule. It resumes once fees have accumulated enough to make a payout worth sending.
