50 Cent has discovered that he is a Bitcoin millionaire, thanks to some long-forgotten album sales.
In 2014, he released the album Animal Ambition and became the first artist to accept Bitcoin as payment.
The rapper received more than 700 Bitcoins under the deal, but then forgot about the cryptocurrency, according to celebrity newsite TMZ.
The hoard is worth $7-$8m, although the currency's price volatility means that could change fast.

50 Cent also posted a picture of himself on Instagram surrounded by Bitcoins, with the caption: "A little bit coin anyone?
Recently, French reality star Nabilla appeared on Snapchat on 12 January to encourage her fans to invest in Bitcoin. »
