Spartan node’s recent MEME competition made me revisit this idea. This might sound crazy but these days nothing should be written off…
There have been allot of CEOs lately stepping down from their glorious positions i.e. Jeff Bezos and since Dogecoin has shown the incredible impact of a (tech) celebrity jokingly taking an executive position of its currency/blockchain. I think there is huge potential here. I believe we ought to claim not just one but two celebrities on social media, specifically on twitter as our CEO and CFO.
We need an ICON that is a BILLIONAIRE capable of increasing our market cap to that amount. We need someone that is controversial but still able to transcend public discussion. They often fit into the social network like a rhizome. We need someone who is a trend setter, with various accomplishments to their name. We need someone who is bold and bullish but still loved by fans and still capable of gaining the attention of the general public. We need some with a vision. Who hasn’t been in the media for some time but completely captures the limelight every time he or she gets under it. We need someone with various connections to all facets of life and industries.
CEO Candidate: Kanye West
Kanye West is worth $5Billion dollars and that means we want to aspire to increase our market cap to that figure
Besides been a cultural icon and multi-platinum record artists, he is a successful business man who has created various successful brands and products in music, fashion and technology. YE made the headlines last year with his vision to be the president of United States. What people seem to miss is just how bullish he is when he sets himself on a path or vision. He has shown to outperform his most damning critics, always beating the odds against him and this drive mustn’t be underestimated.
I think there is allot of opportunity here to get Kanye to embrace the ICON network because he is a global icon deserving the legendary status and can be a strong ambassador for the vision of ICON. Let’s not forget, if he does ever get into the white house or starts his own economy, he would much rather run it on the best blockchain network today
Kanye West and Elon Musk are good friends. This is great in terms of degrees of separation or association since Elon Musk is already celebrated in the crypto space. The hip-hop culture has several famous rivalries from tupac/biggy to JayZ/Nas
I think this is the perfect setup to try and get a fun, entertaining rivalry going between Elon Musk and Kanye West that could get our network in the minds of many. (Just recently both billionaires have announced they will be joining clubhouse app)
I also thought we can be the first network to have a bill, this will be the only note in one denomination i.e. the 100ICX. It will serve as the bare minimum you should have in your account if you don’t want to miss our rocket to the moon. We could come up with some tags for this #100icx, #legendarYE.
Wouldnt it be amazing if Kanye replaced is twitter profile picture with ICON and give himself the title as CEO of ICON
This is simply to generate hype on social media. I think he momentum should be followed with a 360 campaign for ICON 2.0 and all the coming dapps.

I will reveal my candidate for our CFO in the coming days. If you have a celebrity in mind who you think represents or can be an ambassador for the ICON network. I would love to hear your thoughts.
An idea would be to start sharing the picture of Elon Musk and Kanye (above) on social media with the icon and dogecoin on their shirts with the tag WHO HAS THE BETTER CRYPTO to generate some hype.
