A tragic event unfolded recently when crypto trader @MistaFuYou, also known as "Im really poor," took his own life during a livestream on X (formerly Twitter) after losing his last $500 in a crypto memecoin rug pull.
The trader had been actively involved in the volatile world of cryptocurrency, but his financial losses and emotional distress reached a devastating point.
In his final moments, the trader loaded a revolver on the livestream, stating, “If I die, make me a meme coin.” The gun misfired twice before it discharged on the third attempt, leading to his death. This shocking act was witnessed by his online followers in real-time.
Minutes after the tragedy, new memecoins began circulating, using his name, death, and likeness. This sparked outrage within the crypto community, with many questioning the morality of using someone's death as a basis for new digital currencies. Critics voiced concerns that this event highlighted the darker side of the crypto world, where speculative investments and rug pulls can have devastating consequences. $OM
