The gun misfired twice and fired on his third attempt. The crypto community responded to his last wish by creatinng memecoins with his name in real-time, it added.

The report cited criticism from crypto community members and social media netizens as the first memecoin called “Mistacoin” appeared within minutes.

Notably, there has been no official police statement on the incident, and no mainstream news platform has reported it, which is why MusFuccYou's name, residence and other details could not be confirmed.

The report added that there was speculation the death was part of a dangerous Russian roulette game, where you load one bullet into a gun, spins its cylinder, and pull the trigger while aiming at the head. Other speculation is that it was a viral stunt which took a turn for the worst.
