  • YG is shown carrying a Ledger wallet close to a smartphone with a screen exhibiting a wallet application with more than $30.6 million in BTC in one of the sequences of the music video for the song Scared Money starring J. Cole and Moneybagg Yo.
  • Crypto has attracted a large number of musicians, with legends like Jay Z and nonfungible token bull Snoop Dogg both investing heavily in the space. Meek Mill, who bought Dogecoin (DOGE) during the excitement last year, Nas, who tokenized his songs as NFTs earlier this year, and Post Malone are among the celebrities who have jumped on the gravy train.
  • The song was published on May 25, 2018, with a BTC price of $7,459 at the time of closing. So, by today’s conversion, YG spent $132,000 for a girl’s semester at what I assume was University of Phoenix.

In the music video, YG is seen clutching a Ledger cold storage USB next to a smartphone with a screen displaying a wallet application containing more than $30.6 million in BTC. Dequan Keenon In his recent music video, YG, a rapper who goes by the moniker Ray Jackson, pretends to flaunt a huge $30 million stack of Bitcoin (BTC).

A Wallet Application With More Than $30.6 Million In BTC

Since the video notably features the cold room gadget from cryptocurrency wallets business Ledger, it looks to just be a gaze — though possibly fake — flex or a smart bit of product placement. Ledger’s social media crew was also quick to respond: YG is shown carrying a Ledger wallet close to a smartphone with a screen exhibiting a wallet application with more than $30.6 million in BTC in one of the sequences of the music video for the song Scared Money starring J. Cole and Moneybagg Yo.

Whereas the picture might have been staged, rappers were known as displaying their money as well as accomplishment, which really is particularly true in just this track, that is about buying, earning, as well as trying to save money putting half a million dollars worth of jewelry around one’s neck.

He made analogies to the real estate market, where he would have to put in a lot of time working and learning in order to succeed.

He was referring to the asset’s skyrocketing price last year.

Users on the r/Bitcoin subreddit were doubting YG’s massive BTC stack earlier today, with AvoidMyRange claiming that the odds of all these finishing at 0 and the cents ending in.00 is incredibly low. This is clearly a forgery. It’s phony, user AKeveryday remarked, since that isn’t even the layout of the ledger app. Other users found the music-related BTC shenanigans of YG amusing, with Redditor Lexsteele11 completing the math on the lyrics from the Big Bank song when BTC was around the mid-$7,000 area.
