In addition to actually making transactions, in 2017, G-Eazy incorporated the word 'cryptocurrency' into their lyrics, and in 2018, Soulja Boy became the first rapper to sing a song about Bitcoin.

Rocks, who has been interested in cryptocurrencies for the past few years, said he wanted to create a song that more realistically portrayed what it's like to be a cryptocurrency trader. I just wanted to bring up another side of cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrencies are the worst you can lose.' Although Rocks is interested in cryptocurrencies, he doesn't see them through the same lens as others, saying, ``People lose money nine out of 10 trades. It's going to blow up. Even if Elon Musk appears on a variety show, your portfolio will be in turmoil. That's what virtual currency trading is like.'
According to Rocks, “Hip-hop is like an old trend barometer, and it’s too late to get information from mainstream rappers and get interested in investing in cryptocurrencies.” VICE concludes, ``The future of virtual currencies is still uncertain.''
