According to Queensbridge Venture Partners co-founder Anthony Saleh, the investment firm makes early-stage investments of between $100,000 and $500,000. According to an analysis by CoinDesk, at the time the firm got its stake in Coinbase. The share price was $1.00676, and Queensbridge owns around 99,329 or 496,642 on the low and high end, respectively.

At the price that Coinbase last traded on private secondary markets, which were $350 per share. Nas and his firm would clock in somewhere between $34.76 million and $173.8 million. That means NAS COULD BE $100M RICHER.

If Coinbase decides to trade with investment bank DA Davidson’s new price of $440. Nas can see his investment rise from $43.7 million to an insane $218.5 million.

Nas may want to take this huge payout and look into non-fungible tokens (NFT’s). The new cryptocurrency craze that’s sweeping the music industry. NFT’s are like collectible sports cards — and essentially serve as a digital certificate of authenticity for “an object, real or virtual,” a tech expert said in the L.A. Times. An artist can use an NFT to create a virtual concert experience; or use it as a collectible token that gives its owners access to exclusive content.
