Kanye West received a flurry of criticism because of his token

The American rapper Kanye West was again in the center of the scandal. He released an advertisement for the Super Cup and released a token to the SOLANA on the SOLANA blockchain clearly by Nazi symbols.

The advertising itself was unusual: West lay in the dentist’s chair and showed his teeth inlaid with diamonds. In the video shot on the iPhone video, the rapper claimed that he spent his entire budget on dental services, which forced him to remove advertising in a minimalistic manner.

Well, guys, I spent all the money on these new teeth. So I had to shoot on the iPhone again, ”Kanye West said in advertising.

Advertising redirected the rapper to the website, where only one product was presented – a T -shirt with a swastika. Soon after the release of the video, which was translated not throughout the country, but in certain states, a token West called HH-01 appeared on decentralized exchanges, which can mean a Nazi greeting.

In a few hours, the token increased in price by more than 3880%, according to Dex Screener. At the time of publication of the article, the market capitalization of the asset was $ 2.7 million.

West’s actions were criticized by public and human rights organizations, and actor David Schwimmer and journalist Pierce Morgan called for blocking his account on the social network.
