A 23-year-old's tragic death via livestream has ignited a chilling meme coin trading frenzy, with UK investors among those profiting from the macabre crypto craze.
Arnold Robert Haro, known as @MistaFuccYou, shot himself on February 2025 after losing £386 ($499) to a memecoin scam, pleading with viewers to 'make this a memecoin' if he died. Within hours, tokens like 'Mistacoin' soared, exposing a grim collision of cryptocurrency and human tragedy.
