40 Meme Coins, Including “Queen Doge.”

The death of Queen Elizabeth II was announced on the 8th of September. Her death evoked an outpouring of sympathy and condolences from around the world.

Despite the grief, the crypto vultures took advantage of the opportunity to launch dozens of Queen-themed meme coins on Ethereum and Binance’s BNB Chain.

In the past 24 hours, the price of Queen Elizabeth Inu is up 49,9% on Binance Smart Chain and 803% on Uniswap. The price of Save The Queen tokens witnessed a growth of 968%.

Since its launch, Save The Queen has already processed $382 000 in trading volume, while Queen Elizabeth Inu – $233 000.

An NFT collection titled “Queen Elizabeth 69 Years NFT” was also created instantly after the monarch’s death. The collection claims to have one image for the Queen’s reign each year. However, the collection’s creators deny that it is a “grifter.”
