Mixed martial artist Jon Fitch, a former top welterweight contender for Ultimate Fighting Championship preparing to headline a World Series of Fighting bout this Saturday, is one of the world’s only athletes paid in cryptocurrency. He also likes eating tacos at 10 a.m. He sat down while doing the latter to chat about the former with Inverse. http://www.altcointoday.com/mma-welterweight-jon-fitch-fights-for-bitcoin-embraces-techno-feudalism/ Title: Re: [2015-10-17] MMA Welterweight Jon Fitch Fights for Bitcoin, Embraces Techno-...

It seems sponsoring atheletes and the like is a genuine way to get people interested in because people watching them will check it out too.
Maybe we could look at doing more sponsorships like this in general? |
