Me either, Turns out, he accepted bitcoin payments for his 2014 album “Animal Ambition.” Each album cost a fraction of a single bitcoin, but he earned about 700 bitcoin worth about $662 each at the time, about $400,000 in total. But then he apparently forgot about them.
Now they’re worth more than $7 million.
50 cent aka ( Curtis Jackson ) petitioned for chapter 11 out of 2015, however, the reserve of overlooked bitcoin wouldn't have made a big deal about a distinction at the time, as the cost didn't begin taking off until 2017. Bitcoin (BTCUSD) surged more than 1,100% a year ago, cresting at more than $19,000. It was last exchanging at $11,134 Wednesday evening. At that value, 50's pull is esteemed at about $7.8 million.

50 Cent was on top of things in accepting crypto installments in 2014. After four years, it's as yet an irregularity, however winding up more typical. As of late, craftsmen, for example, Bjork, Mastodon and Imogen Heap reported their new collections would be accessible by means of crypto buys.
