🤩🤩🤩 50 Cent's Multi-Million Dollar Bitcoin "Oopsie"
Remember when 50 Cent (Curtis Jackson) accepted Bitcoin for his 2014 album "Animal Ambition"? Turns out, he made a mint without even realizing it!
The rapper reportedly earned about 700 Bitcoin from those sales. Back then, it was worth around half a million dollars. But here's the kicker: he "forgot" all about it until 2018, when the value of Bitcoin had skyrocketed.
That "forgotten" investment was suddenly worth over $7 million! He even joked on social media, "I'm a keep it real I forgot I did that s***. Lol." While there were some legal complexities due to his bankruptcy filing and later denials in court, the legend of 50 Cent's accidental Bitcoin fortune lives on. Some estimates even put that 700 Bitcoin at a staggering $48 million today!
It's a wild reminder of the unpredictable — and sometimes incredibly lucrative — nature of early crypto investments!
