Well, apparently that is exactly what happened to rapper 50 Cent. In 2014, 50 Cent made the then-unheard of decision to let people buy his album Animal Ambition with bitcoin. At the time, the cryptocurrency was worth about $662, so fans were able to buy his album with just a fraction of a bitcoin. Despite this, Animal Ambition pulled in about 700 bitcoin in sales, worth approximately $400,000. After that, the rapper seemingly forgot about the whole thinguntil recently. Apparently, 50 Cent has rediscovered the unused account, finding that at the current rate of about $11,000, he is sitting on nearly $8 million. Now that's a good day. --- - The Admiral <cite>The Admiral posted [p:894769343] in 50 Cent fo...
