According to ChainCatcher, Shaw, founder of elizaOS, stated that his previous claim that the code published in the GitHub repository lalalune/pumpfun-source was open source was false. The code does not belong to him, and he never had the authority to publish, license, or authorize anyone to use it. The “Copyright (c) 2026 Shaw” and similar license notices in the repository are not legitimate licenses and do not grant any rights to anyone. Shaw emphasized that his prior statements or these license notices should not be interpreted as permission to use, copy, fork, modify, build upon, or distribute the code, nor should anyone distribute or attempt to reverse engineer the pump.fun code, as the code is protected by copyright.
