Renowned rapper and entrepreneur Kanye West, now known as Ye, has once again captured the spotlight with a series of tweets about cryptocurrency. Within the past 12 hours, he has posted over 20 tweets, sharing his thoughts on crypto scams and buying crypto directly.
Kanye's Coin Launch Plans
Kanye West has always been known for making bold statements, and his recent activity on X has once again drawn massive attention. One of his tweets, which gained over 7.3 million views, asked, "When People Make All That Money With A Coin Is That Cash Or Concept????" This cryptic message has left many wondering if Ye is planning to dive into the world of cryptocurrency. Some fans have even urged him to create his meme coin, suggesting platforms like Pump.fun for its launch.
Kanye Rejects Scam Deal
While Kanye's interest in crypto is growing, he revealed that he turned down a $2 million offer to promote a fraudulent crypto scheme. According to the tweet, he was promised $750,000 upfront and another $1.25 million later to promote a fake cryptocurrency. The plan involved him posting about the coin, keeping the post live for eight hours, and later claiming his account was hacked. Kanye, however, rejected the deal, exposing how some companies are willing to scam the public using celebrity influence.
Buying Crypto Directly
Shortly after exposing the scam, Kanye shared another tweet showing a private conversation where he asked for a trusted "crypto connect" who could help him buy digital assets directly. The response he received suggested reaching out to Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, indicating Kanye might be looking to make a large crypto purchase without intermediaries.
With a reported net worth of $2.77 billion, Kanye's potential entry into crypto could be a game-changer. Whether he launches his coin or makes a major investment, all eyes are on Ye's next move.
