Rap Legend Busta Rhymes Officially a Bitcoin HODLer

Trevor George Smith Jr., better known for his stage name Busta Rhymes, is now officially a Bitcoin holder. He broke the news in a tweet following yesterday’s discussion between Elon Musk, Jack Dorsey, and Cathie Wood.

  • CryptoPotato reported earlier in July that Busta Rhymes is looking into the cryptocurrency market.
  • It took him less than a few days to officially become a Bitcoin HODLer. Today, he broke it to his 3.8 million followers that he’s bought BTC and that he’s looking into Ethereum next.

  • The rapper explained that the final push towards making the decision was the discussion between Elon Musk, Jack Dorsey, and Cathie Wood on yesterday’s B Word online event.
  • In another tweet, he explicitly explained that his biggest take from the discussion was Musk outlining the similarity between corporations and governments. In fact, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX said that the “government is the biggest corporation of all, and it’s got a monopoly on violence.”
