50 Cent, the renowned rapper and Grammy winner, has recently discovered that he is now a cryptocurrency millionaire. Back in 2014, when releasing his fifth album “Animal Ambition,” the artist decided to accept bitcoin as payment.
his move has paid off handsomely, as it is estimated that he accumulated around 700 bitcoins from the album sales.
At the time of the album’s release in June 2014, each bitcoin was valued at approximately $662. If the rumors hold true and Jackson indeed collected this substantial bitcoin haul, he would have sold around $460,000 worth of bitcoin back then. This impressive sum translates to a total current worth of over $8 million.
