After the death of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, the outrage on social media triggered the issuance of Justice for Celeste meme coins, some of which have a market capitalization of up to $1 million. The police are still investigating the incident and have not yet been identified as a homicide. This trend highlights the dark side of the cryptocurrency community as meme coins increasingly use tragic events for profit, raising moral concerns and the normalization of using real-world tragedies to make profits.
