Ice Cube Backs DOGE Army in the Largest Commercial Transaction in History
Rapper and actor Ice Cube (O’Shea Jackson Sr.) has become the latest celebrity to join the Dogecoin fanclub. There are plenty of famous people counted among the DOGE supporters already, including Snoop Dogg, Mark Cuban, Gene Simmons, and, of course, Elon Musk.
Ice Cube Shows Love for the Most Established Meme Coin on Twitter
The legendary rapper made his feelings known after Bill Lee, the founder of MyDoge Wallet, expressed interest in buying a team in the rapper’s own ‘BIG3’ basketball league. Lee later stated that he’d like to acquire some Fire-tier editions of the ‘Aliens’ team in the form of NFTs, with the condition that Ice Cube’s BIG3 accepts Dogecoin as a payment method. Ice Cube was quick to reply and show support for the meme coin, saying ‘Come on wit it Bill, you know I’m down with the DogeArmy’.

The highest tier is called ‘Fire’, and costs $25,000 per piece, while ‘Gold’ tier NFTs cost $5,000 per unit.
