Of COURSE Kanye West Now Has His Own Cryptocurrency…

First, there was Bitcoin followed by Litecoin, Peercoin, Dogecoin, Namecoin and more than sixty others. And like mos people, I only have the vaguest idea of how all these cryptocurrencies work.

But not Kanye West. He’s apparently got this whole thing down cold, which is why he’s launched his own tender.

It’s called “Coinye West,” of course.

Lest you think that this is a product of The Onion or some other spoof site, the source is Time magazine.
