Celebrity Projects
Caitlyn Jenner - Jenner Token
Arora facilitated the launch of former American decathlete Caitlyn Jenner's "JENNER" token in May 26 2024 on Pump.fun where Jenner posted a tweet including a photo of herself with Donald Trump. It gained $113.5M of volume within 4 hours of its launch. Later on, Jenner claimed to have been scammed by Arora, alleging insider trading on his part.[2][3]
Iggy Azalea - Mother
Australian rapper Iggy Azalea launched here celebrity "MOTHER" token on June 5 2024 on Pump.fun. This token launch was linked to Sahil Arora.[4] It peaked at ~21 cents in Jun 7 2024. As of 15 June 2025, this token is now trading at ~0.75 cents.[5]
Impersonation of Changpeng Zhao's Dog - Broccoli
Chinese-Canadian Changpeng Zhao (CZ) and founder of Binance was not involved in this scheme. Arora launched a Solana token on Pump.fun using the same wallet linked to JENNER to create a false impression that the launch was officially tied to CZ's dog. According to TrenchRadar, Arora controlled ~79% of the BROCCOLI token supply with 15 new wallets. His first set of sales caused the token's price to plummet over 90% from $9.57 billion to $907 million in 34 seconds.[6][7] He claims to have profited ~$6.5M from the project. When asked if this was his most successful scam, Arora replied affirmatively.[6][8]
Financial Impact
