In contrast to the activity on his internet channels this week, 50 Cent has stated that he is not associated with bitcoin.
The G-Unit leader revealed on Instagram on Friday, June 21, that his website and X (formerly Twitter) account had been hacked.
He posted screenshots of social media posts about the $GUNIT memecoin that has been associated with his name alongside the statement, “My Twitter & Thisis 50.com was hacked I have no association with this Crypto.”
Twitter moved swiftly to relock my account. In thirty minutes, whomever performed this made $3,000,000.
ThisIs50.com is still down as of the time of writing.
Contrary to Fif’s statement, the New York statement and XXL have both stated that the swindle brought in $300 million.
Regarding his legal business ventures, a reputable non-profit group honored the 48-year-old’s diligence last month.
The “P.I.M.P.” hitmaker received the Entrepreneurial Leadership Award from the Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship at the beginning of May. Actor Joseph Sikora of Power presented him with the award, stating, “There is no one more befitting of an award for an entrepreneur than Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson.”
MSNBC host and chief legal correspondent Ari Melber said of the event, “What we’re doing is honoring 50 an award for entrepreneurship tonight, and the reason why it’s a good thing is we’re raising a lot of money for other young entrepreneurs from underprivileged backgrounds so they get in, make money, have success, and have their own power in life.”
“I do want to say thank you to all of the teachers, mentors, and volunteers to support G-Unit to this point, because without them, the organization won’t be as successful as it is,” the Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ MC said in his acceptance speech.
Before that, after establishing his G-Unit Film & TV Studios in Shreveport, Louisiana, 50 Cent was given a day of honor in the city. During the event in mid-April, Mayor Tom Arceneaux also gave him a key to the city.
The seasoned rapper addressed the crowd, saying, “Ladies, gentlemen, Mayor Tom Arceneaux and the wonderful people of Shreveport, it is an honor for me to stand before you here today.” “I’m really excited to show you the expansion of film and television through G-Unit Studios right here in Shreveport. I’ve always believed in the transformative power of music, film, and television.”
