CHUDLINED
Contract
The line climbs while he is on your screen and this window is in front. Scrolling counts as looking away, which makes the rest of this page expensive.
The gauge needs JavaScript. He is here either way.

Field notes
What is down here
- pump.fun opened in January 2024. By that October it had deployed more than 2.5 million coins, and almost every one of them is zero.
- At the peak the site was pulling around 18 million visits a month. NASDAQ was pulling fewer.
- The trenches are a first world war metaphor, and it stuck because it was honest about the mud rather than the heroism.
- Chud is older than the imageboards. C.H.U.D. is a 1984 creature feature about Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dwellers, which is the most accurate thing anyone has said about this place.
- The headphones are not playing music.
