If You Invested $100 In Bitcoin When Snoop Dogg Called Crypto A 'Beautiful Industry', Here's How Much You'd Have Now

Renowned hip-hop artist Snoop Dogg in June 2022 talked about the crypto market drawdown, expressing confidence in the industry’s ability to rebound and thrive in the long run.

What Happened: When Snoop was questioned by CNBC about the ongoing crypto market slump, Snoop responded saying, “It’s crypto… You know that, right?” 

He went on to describe the crypto industry as "a beautiful industry". Adding that he "feels like every great industry has a downfall, and there's always a depression in every industry you could look at Alcohol, tobacco, clothing, and food."

Snoop further elaborated that he sees the market crash as a necessary process to cleanse the industry from bad actors. 

“I just feel like this ‘weeded’ out all of the people that weren’t supposed to be in that space and all the people who were abusing the opportunities that were there,” Snoop explained. “Now, it’s going to bring great business, and moving forward the market will have great things to pick and choose from.”
