Learn The Fundamentals Of Blockchain, Bitcoin, And Crypto

Getting to the money is an idea that most people can get behind. From becoming a social media influencer to navigating a traditional job or even jumping into entrepreneurship, people are looking for ways to secure the bag and maximize wealth. One of the ways people are expanding their worth is through investments and alternative forms of traditional currency like cryptocurrency. And although cryptocurrency has become more and more popular, the reality of it still makes people scratch their heads a little bit. While crypto has been around since 2009, it has evolved.

Kanye West Doesn't Have Current Plans For The Metaverse And NFTs — 'For Now I'm Not On That Wave'

The Metaverse will not be seeing global superstar Kanye West, or at least not anytime soon. West took to Instagram Monday (Jan. 31) to share with over 10 million followers that he will not be endorsing non-fungible tokens (NFTs) at this time. Instead, Kanye West will continue to place his focus on his products, the “real world,” “real food,” “real clothes,” and “real shelter.” “STOP ASKING ME TO DO NFT’s I’M NOT FINNA CO-SIGN … FOR NOW I’M NOT ON THAT WAVE I MAKE MUSIC AND PRODUCTS IN THE REAL WORLD,” West wrote on Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/p/CZacZWcPQzP/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link At the end of West’s note, he adds “ASK ME LATER.” So, perhaps the crypto world may gain a notable endorser in the near future.

The NFT images in question include 5,000 cartoonish, pixelated monkeys that are generated randomly. As one of the most popular cryptocurrencies, Solana continues to climb to the top with a value in price that started at $37 last month and is now up to $197 as of yesterday, reports Decrypt.
