As of Friday, around 550 people had bought the meme coin.

A cryptocurrency meme coin giving tribute to the suspected "free Palestine" terrorist, Elias Rodriguez, launched within a few hours of his arrest and being charged with the murder of a couple who worked as staffers at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC.

Rodriguez was seen on video being taken into custody by police on Wednesday, where he was yelling "Free Palestine" after he reportedly shot dead Sarah Milgrim, 26, and her boyfriend, Yaron Lischinsky, 28. The couple was set to get engaged next week.

As a twisted tribute to him, traders launched a meme coin with his likeness and name, according to the New York Post. The outlet reported that on Friday that the meme coin was hovering at around $368,000, then dropped to $24,000. As of Friday, around 550 people had bought the meme coin.

Milgrim, as well as Lischinsky, were attending the American Jewish Committee’s ACCESS Young Diplomats Reception at the Capital Jewish Museum on Wednesday evening. After the event, they were with a group when surveillance video caught Rodriguez on camera pacing back and forth in front of the museum. According to authorities, camera footage showed Rodriguez walking up to the group that the couple was with and gunning both of them down.

Milgrim, initially surviving the first round of shots, attempted to crawl away, as she did, Rodriguez was seen on video walking closer to the victim and shooting several more times to finish the killing. He then jogged off and was later arrested by police.

Rodriguez has been discovered to be a left-wing extremist and has been linked to a socialist political party. He has also praised alleged UnitedHealthcare CEO assassin Luigi Mangione on social media, along with other comments such as "death to America" as well as "death to Israel."
