In an attempt to fulfill a dare, a Solana memecoin developer named Mikol accidentally set himself on fire after soaking himself in rubbing alcohol.
The developer sustained third-degree burns and had to be immediately hospitalized.
Mikol developed the memecoin called “Trust or Dare” ($DARE).
Memecoins have increasingly relied on hype to gain popularity. This often leads to finding new ways to make the coin noticed in public.
On DexScreener, the memecoin crashed 64%, showing that Mikol’s stunts were not liked by the market.
