American rapper Kanye West, now performing under the pseudonym Ye, announced the launch of his own cryptocurrency Yeezy Money (YZY) based on Solana. In his post on X, he mentions that the project is creating a "new economy on the blockchain." The artist's website and online store already list YZY as a possible payment method.

Users on X doubted the authenticity of the initiative, suggesting that the account may have been hacked. Previously, he had sharply criticized meme coins and denied plans to release his own token. However, the appearance of YZY on the artist's official resources indicates that the launch may be real.$LAYER $C $LA
