KANYE’S CRYPTO CHAOS: SWASTICOIN OR SWINDLE?!
Hold onto your wallets, folks! The one and only Kanye West, now known as Ye, is shaking up the crypto scene with a wild spree of tweets and audacious claims! Is he launching his very own crypto, Swasticoin, or is this just another manic episode in the world’s most unpredictable career?
Last Saturday night, Ye unleashed a torrent of tweets that had the crypto community buzzing. He hinted at creating Swasticoin, a meme coin that he swears will be listed on a decentralized exchange (DEX) because—get this—it’s decentralized! But wait—who’s really running the show here? Many are questioning if these tweets were even penned by Ye himself or if someone else has taken the reins.
Ye’s antics kicked off when he retweeted crypto mogul Changpeng “CZ” Zhao’s take on DEX usability. But folks, the drama didn’t stop there! In a whirlwind of confusion, Ye began polling his 16 million followers about which blockchain he should use for his new crypto venture. Recommending networks like Ethereum and Solana, the floodgates opened, and Ye responded with an uncertainty that screams “amateur hour.”
Then came the bombshell! Ye’s posts veered into dangerously offensive territory, as he attempted to connect with CZ while mentioning his infamous Swasticoin. Ever the provocateur, he griped that critics of his controversial Nazi comments were “hitting him up for the CA” (contract address, for those not in the know) of his new coin. Are we seriously letting this happen?!
In one particularly incendiary tweet, Ye declared, “PEOPLE WHO DIDN’T LIKE THE NAZI POSTS HITTING ME UP FOR THE CA ON MY SWASTICOIN. Wait What’s a CA?” It’s a playground big enough for a global superstar to swing wildly!
Ye’s Twitter tirade didn’t shy away from drama. He took shots at Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, accusing him of “pump and dump” schemes like a scorned ex! Talk about a public smackdown!
But the plot thickens! After unfollowing CZ, Ye cozied up to Portnoy and Polychain co-founder Olaf Carlson-Wee—leading us to wonder if Ye is just looking for someone to work the controls as speculation ramps up that he might have sold or leased his account to a shady group attempting to launch a meme coin!
Red flags are waving high! Observers are pointing out the inconsistencies in Ye’s tweet times and the probability that someone else might be running the show entirely. One commenter bluntly stated, “There is 0.0 shot Heil Kanye is running his account. It’s the scammers planning the rug pull!”
As if that wasn’t enough, a video featuring Ye talking emerged, but users suspect it might have been a deepfake. And, for those waiting with bated breath for the launch of Swasticoin, prepare to be disappointed—no coin has materialized yet!
Ye once teased a coin called YZY, claiming it would be his ticket to financial independence away from the platforms distancing themselves from him amid backlash. In a classic case of irony, he then turned around and deemed every existing token “fake”!
Will Swasticoin ever see the light of day, or are we witnessing yet another flop in Ye’s rollercoaster ride? One thing’s for sure: crypto junkies and conspiracy lovers better buckle up—this saga is just getting wild! Keep your eyes peeled, you never know when Ye will drop his next bombshell!
