Is Kanye getting trolled by Coinye creators?

The ongoing Coinye West saga to a turn with for the surreal today, with the creators of the cryptocurrency seemingly taking a leaf out of South Park’s book in responding to Kanye’s cease and desist order.

Kanye was known to be not too pleased with the ‘fish sticks’ episode on South Park, so this new iteration of Coinye West in inspired – if the aim is to piss the rapper off.
