“50 Cent’s Twitter Hacked: The Rise and Fall of GUNIT, the Solana Meme Coin”
In a plot twist that even 50 Cent himself couldn’t have scripted, the rapper’s Twitter account was recently hacked to promote a new Solana meme coin called GUNIT. 🚀
The Hype Begins Within minutes, 50 Cent’s account was ablaze with promotional posts for GUNIT, launched via Pump.fun. The tweets were elaborate, referencing everything from the rap icon’s cognac brand to other celebrity-related crypto narratives. Investors poured in, and GUNIT’s trading volume skyrocketed by a staggering 8,000%. It seemed like the next big thing—until reality hit.
The Fall Turns out, it was all smoke and mirrors. 50 Cent took to his Instagram to reveal that his Twitter and website had indeed been hacked. The hacker, with an eye for detail, even tagged the rapper’s cognac brand in the update. GUNIT’s value plummeted, but not to worthlessness. At the time of writing, it still holds a market capitalization of about $150,000, with fresh purchases streaming in.
The $300 Million Scam According to 50 Cent, the hacker made off with a cool $300 million. However, data sources suggest that GUNIT’s market cap during its brief spike was nowhere near that figure. Pump-and-dump schemes are nothing new in the crypto world, but this one had the perfect mix of celebrity endorsement and intrigue.
