COINOTAG reported on August 21 that Solana co‑founder Anatoly Yakovenko posted a public comment proposing a conceptual scenario in which Kanye West might have allowed fans to record clips of “Runaway” to be spliced into a synchronized global video, distributed as media while issuing all his tokens freely to serve as the currency for a global TikTok competition platform.
Yakovenko presented this as an illustrative use case emphasizing potential token distribution, network effects and alternative monetization pathways for digital assets; market observers should treat the idea as hypothetical. From a financial perspective, such a model would implicate liquidity dynamics, intellectual property and compliance considerations that are material to any rigorous valuation or go‑to‑market assessment of crypto-enabled media initiatives.
