50 Cent Forgets He Accepted Bitcoin for Album, Finds $7 Million Pile of Bitcoin

What a way to earn that cash! Even from when he accepted the payment that's already a lot! Maybe celebs are turning to crypto as it is faster in earning money. But I think the mistake that 50 cent made was going public with this. Now he has the IRS on his tail.

Lucky for him.  He took the chance in accepting bitcoin and now he is enjoying the profit.  Hopefully, this will encourage more companies and merchants to accept bitcoin as mode of payment.  The more bitcoin usability, the better.

I think very soon everybody will accept bitcoin instead of cash. It could me more practical to pay with bitcoin if the fees drop a bit

Good story. It sheds more light on what BTC stands for as an investment. That's how much one can make in a few years when you invest in BTC. Good stuff indeed.

What an idiot? Now the IRS guys will be sending tax notices to him, asking him to pay income tax on top of the penalty payment. But I can't believe that he really forgot about that coin stash. $400,000 is going to be a very significant amount of money for every one, including 50 Cent.
