RD goes on to say the 26-year-old artist needed the car quickly but couldn’t do a wire transfer, and offered the coinbase cryptocurrency Ethereum instead.

He continued:

“It was on a Sunday so he’s like ‘drop the car off I need it now’, I was like bro can you send a wire? He’s like ‘no but you have coinbase?’ I was like sure, so he sent Ethereum, that was it.” 

 

The 35-year-old luxury car dealer then reveals that Uzi confessed the transaction had been the first purchase he made on his own without going through his management company Roc Nation.

“Then he goes ‘that’s the first thing I bought on my own, ever, without having to go through Roc Nation”
