Kanye West launches YZY Money, a Solana-based token that surged 814% to $1.86, despite previously rejecting a $2 million offer to launch a cryptocurrency. YZY Money represents a comprehensive financial ecosystem with three integrated components: YZY token, Ye Pay, and YZY Card. The token features a structured vesting schedule using the Jupiter Lock protocol and a transparent on-chain distribution to prevent celebrity token dump scenarios. The launch coincides with the broader cryptocurrency market recovery and marks a reversal from West's previous stance against celebrity meme coins.
