Thats mean more people will know about cryptocurrency cause arsenal is big soccer team. And your source is trustable. But for cashbet ico it self, im not gonna join in it. to much gambling for me i feel enough about it and not gonna involve again.

I think that their ICO could be a huge success and purely because of this news, I've seen it well publicised across English news and it's a big step, many will see this is cryptos being more trustable and a safer investment. Let's not forget that ultimately Arsenal FC are a business and they have not enjoyed the success they've had over the years without being able to make shrewd business decisions, they would not partner with this crypto if they foresaw that it was going to fail.

Honestly that doesn't come as a surprise to me. We should get use to seeing that kind of stuff because they will keep on coming. Crypto currencies are getting much more attention lately. I am sure more companies , teams ,, will keep on promoting crypto because of the amount of money here. Crypto will be all over our daily lives soon.

Pretty interesting, its great for coverage and making more people aware of crypto, I can find it can also be annoying as well though as lots more inexperience people enter the market and panic at the first sign of trouble

Yeh Arsenal is a huge team around the world and it's interesting to see them make the first steps. Crypto is quite a buzz word around social sites at the moment so once they see Arsenal affiliated with it as well, it's going to bring in new investors.
Fair enough and respect your opinions on the ICO, I'm going to have a small dabble on it.

Agree on this! The publicity is big and it certainly makes it feel more trustable to those without knowledge. 'If Arsenal are, maybe i should'

I think you're spot on here! I literally cannot go on social media without seeing it these days and I try to keep my personal and crypto life separate on social media. Now you have such massive brands around the world as Arsenal promoting it as such, it's definitely going to boom over the coming year(s)

Just remember, just like learner drivers ... we all had to start somewhere. It's only good for long term growth and a wider spread adoption.

Very interesting news, cryptocurrency is becoming more and more popular among people and it is very good.

This is great news. Everyone will now know cryptocurrency because of the commercial deal between Arsenal FC and Cashbet. Cashbet will also create their own cryptocurrency Cashbet coin. It also means that every soccer fan will start to use altcoins and will also benefit not only Cashbet but to other altcoins as well.

Frankly,it's hard to believe, that such big football club trusts crypto) :)

Hell yeh, there's a lot of money in Crypto and these sponsorships could be lucrative.


Thing is, it may not gather as much attention as we'd possibly like. It's a commercial deal and whilst it will be marketed, it's not like a kit sponsor that will be plastered everywhere.

It's good for publicity for crypto currencies overall but I don't think it will be used by many people.
I hope it worth the hassle, crypto gambling is way too immature now.

The game company Cashbet is just going to conduct its ICO and uses the well-known Arsenal football club as an ordinary advertising support.
Many projects have already done so, inviting L.Messi and F.Mayweather.

Great idea for promoting cryptocurrency, knowing how many people are watching premier league football.

Probably soon we will see the top 100 FC cryptcurrency :)
Well, it promises to be entertaining, especially when players start doing the same thing personally :D

More clubs should emulate and follow their footstep, it is a good one coming from arsenal fc, i hope to see more clubs promoting cryptocurrenccies

Good thing they appreciate Crypto as well as blockchain. Blockchain is too fast we should step up and this is another level of era. We're changing to be better. Arsenal FC is the best football club that i've heard and i hope they will promote more crypto in the future.

Well, if you consider that what matters more nowadays in cryptos is to create the right type of hype, I'd say that the choice of having a football team to promote your ICO is a really smart move. Even though I cannot really imagine hooligans moving all to cryptos now.

A different level of success we all know Football club are the World's class sports industry especially in the Western part or Europe promoting Crypto is a huge success for us! Hope other Foot Ball club will follow their footstep.

I've also heard there are Spanish league clubs that work with an altcoin. I think this may continue to grow because Cryptocurrency is now beginning to adapt to human needs in more ways

This is great, more people will know about crypto, I think using football club is quite good strategy to launching an ICO, the coin will easily got popularity because they got a lot of fans, bit like the article said that it can be double edge, if the coin got a huge drop then people will get mad at the club that promoted the coin, so this can be a burden to the club

Yes, this is great news! Specially for football fans, I used to support Arsenal (unfortunately now I don't) . I wonder how much they got paid for this promotional add? More people will get to know and get interested in cryptoworld and may be will join us with our hard work of cryptoearnings )

They are a shitty club right now, they are not even doing it good, and they are just promoting cryptos in order to be more "famous" haha, what a nice marketing campaign in there.. I can really smell that.

It is truly an innovative way for promoting an ICO , and will certainly be a very effective one since it'll reach people of all ages , countries and social classes that have football as a common passion . Sports isn't a virgin scene for cryptos since it already penetrated it through gambling and advertisement in multi occasions , yet this is the biggest one i ever encountered .
Such partnership will certainly be beneficial for both parties and the fans will certainly be curious about what their favorite club is promoting for .
Cashbet coin will be available at a 50 cents each and will be used in gambling apps , which is certainly the hobby and major pass time of numerous sports fans .
The cryptocurrencies community will certainly welcome new comers and be as helpful as possible to integrate these people that are having a 1st contact with cryptos through their sport passion , and the community will certainly know how to correct the false ideas these sport fans are getting from other sources claiming that "investing in cryptos is a not to do thing since you'll end up loosing all your money" .

Wow, time to get out from crypto! I don't like this kind of news. I remember when crypto was just for the elites, now everyones wants to jump on it. That is why I think it may be a good time to cash out.

I think that their ICO could be a huge success and purely because of this news, I've seen it well publicised across English news and it's a big step. Let's not forget that ultimately Arsenal FC are a business and they have not enjoyed the success they've had over the years without being able to make business decisions, they would not partner with this crypto if they foresaw that it was going to fail.

Good news! This could bring a lot of new people into crypto that such a high rated team is looking forward to take a step into cryptocurrency. I also read a while ago that Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks, will also be accepting Cryptocurrency as a method of paying in the stadium. Nice way to promote their team and invest.

Wow, its amazing news in sport world which will connect to cryptocurrency.
Big team asa class as arsenal has very big supporters and all of them will notice the cryptocurrency.

Don't more people know about it already ? If not in 2017,2018 certainly it's a trending topic on the search engines.

'All our daily lives' - In what proportions ? To make our life better or much riskier towards the finances ? Also big names promoting cryptos should never be taken as a sign that they're doing something great.They just want to part of the revolution somehow to compete with then forces and make their share of money. :)

No big surprise with all the paid for celebrity endorsements already. ICO advertisement budgets are becoming bigger and bigger. We will probably soon see ICO ads on major TV channels.

Pretty cool news. Football has such a wide audience, let's hope more clubs or companies will hop aboard.

It is not always a good news when a wide spread audience will be adapting to something which has shown a paradigm shift in the way finances work. Government too will hop on the bang wagon and implement the tax policies concerning crypto markets as soon as possible since they don't want to miss an opportunity to make money.
Arsenal Coin,ManU Coin sounds rad though!

This can only be good for Crypto! The more mainstream it is the better.

Thanks for all the comments, it seems like most welcome the idea of a major brand worldwide being involved in, and promoting crypto.

Interesting to see the below is so against it though? Can you let me know your rationale? I get early adopters sometimes like to keep things non mainstream but to cash out is surely a bad time at the moment, prices are down across the board and surely as crypto becomes mass adopted the prices will rise ... and thus would be a good time to cashout.

arsenal soccer team is a very popular team in the world which is a very big supporter in the UK. The definition of this team's crypto currency is a huge improvement. Over time, the crypto currency is more universal. bravo arsenal

indeed the crypto technology is gaining much traction i think we will go main stream very soon . i hope such news will bring back  optimism to the crypto community.

this is good news for me as arenal fc fans and crypto currency lovers, but in the arsenal official twitter account i didn't find news about this

That would be good news for crypto currency. Arsenal are very popular around the world and by doing so, I think more and more people or parties will follow or at least aware about this great technology.

this is a smart move, promote cryptocurrency through football. some brand ambassador also many successful when working together and promoted to the football team. one of the biggest clubs in the world, arsenal has promoted cryptocurrency, then teams like manchester united, barcelona, real madrid, can also promote cryptocurrency and crypto is really going to be popular all over the world.

Arsenal football team has signed another policy to recognize the crypto currency. this group will join the other teams soon. crypto-currencies are rapidly moving towards universalism

How can we participate in the ICO?

There are many ICOs in sports field recently. Crypto field is definitely growing.

UK Football clubs and other EU clubs also promoted Binary Options heavily which didn't work out well

They also heavily promote Gambling and Retail FX

I don't think they vet sponsors and advertisers well at all

Now it's good to see crypto going mainstream but I hope they do their due diligence and make sure they're only getting legit companies and projects

If not it will hurt the industry as a whole

Well, what a cool team like Arsenal advertises, it only says that those who ordered advertising have a lot of money. This is not an indication of the investment level of the project, but marketing is good.

I think these are good news, because it shows that more reliable companies are turning to ICOs as a way to raise funds. This could help bring some more trust to the markets. As for the coin offering itself, I think it's definitely restricted to high investors only, since the minimum buy in seems to be $25k, and that is a lot. I also don't like the discount structure that most of these ICOs use, since it gives an unfair advantage for those that join first, and with the $25k minimum, it only helps those big investors. I still think these are good news overall, and this ICO should be big.

Even though I do not endorse betting and betting coins in general. It is just a matter of time when all walks of life start using Crypto. Personally I think that within 10 years or so, Crypto will be so common that we will forget to have had the Crypto dilemma.   

I am on the idea of all sports clubs having eventually some short of criptocurrencies. There are already some projects out there that allow you to invest in individual players with the promise of a return in their future earnings.

Cryptocurrency is the new order. Never mind the noise of ban and regulations. It has come to stay. Arsenal is not the first. You heard of Kodak even preparing to launch it's own coin. You heard of Facebook exploring blockchain. This is just the beginning.

and why not) I heard that Now the minimum order is 25,000 coins. and from the first of February can already buy by one.

It is not strange to see more organization or company join in this word since it is growing very fast, not only the marketcap. So, we should feel lucky that we are early birds that can get much profit than late birds.

the cryptocurrency will reach all, sports, health, finance, beauty, fashion, traveling, technology, and services

Arsenal is first, who the next FC???

What will be the main purpose of their token? How do they think to use it? Sport gambling or what? Why do I need to buy token? Just if I am a big fan of Arsenal FC?

Thats great! that means cryptocurrency is still growing and move on to the  entire  global,to promotes its own legacy.FC arsenal football club is most respectfull and influential all over entire world especially  in the europe countries,that  they promote the goodness of cryptocurrency to all the humankind and to the economic growth,so by the help of arsenal FC group  to the digital currency i thinks cryptocurrency will still to move towards  to its goal.

Who doesn`t know with 'Arsenal Football Club', he is the biggest professional football club, successful, and has fans in every country. Their idea of promoting and socializing cryptocurrency is quite brilliant, because it has never existed before, I hope with the existence of the promotion will encourage the growth of the price of cryptocurrency in the future.

Like all other tokens - speculating on the market. Don't tell me you're using the tokens for anything except buy/sell.  ;)
And the Arsenal will get a lot of money that way.

     this is such a great news. it means more and more are considering crypto currencies which is why a lot of big personalities and sports teams that have a lot of supporters all over the world like arsenal football club are agreeing to advertise cyrpto currencies. this sure is a great step forward for the cyrpto world as a whole since after this, more and more will venture into the crypto scene since a lot of trusted and famous individuals are promoting different kinds of crypto currencies.


     now for the coin, since it is a gambling project, i can probably say that it is gonna be successful. because most of the time, gambling projects like this really gain a lot of supporters. specially with this one that has the arsenal football club to promote them. i really see a bright future for this coin. i think im gonna invest.

Potentially huge advertising of Crypto however being so closely linked to what the general public perceive as gambling is probably not a good thing.

This could well open the floodgates if it's successful. We could be flooded with such teams as Barcelona,Man Utd, NY Yankees,Patriots, Red Sox, Celtics etc etc if it's successful. It might however be of interest to the likes of Man Utd and Co whos support reaches far across the globe.

If I am not wrong, Arsenal should be the first club promoting crypto, nice moves. Hopefully, the promotion will help boost the other crypto currencies.

I'm not an Arsenal fan but have to admit this could be absolutely HUGE for Crypto. Arsenal may be a push over right now for clubs like City, Utd, Barca etc but you can't win against the Arsenal internet brigade. Their fan base is massive. Now we'll see Robbie , DT and Troopz making videos about Crypto for ArsenalFanTV, haha  ;D ;D

That would be really great to see! Troopz giving it the massive one on ArsenalFanTV about bitcoin and cryptos. Arsenal have a massive global reach and this can only be a good thing, as more and more people see cryptos starting to be accepted the interest will only grow.

I am a fan of Arsennal , thanks for your news , crypto will spread out to more and more people along with the great football club.

I would literally spit my drink out with shock and laughter if Arsenal Fan TV was to suddenly bust out a crypto section ...

"Wenger has to go blud ... I'm sorry, I'm just a bit upset today as I lost money on Bitcoin fam"

Guys, things at Arsenal are pretty damn bad. Year after year, FC does not show the required results. In my humble opinion, this is just a business. You can call it a bounty campaign for Arsenal. This is the same advertisement on the football shirts of football players, like everything else. And this is not bad for "crypto players".

Arsenal is not going to promote crypto currency
Arsenal is promoting his sponsor ico
Bookmarkers are sponsors of UK sports and most lucrative legaue in the world Premier Legaue
It is all about money,nothing is for free

Its a good development for cryptocurrency world entirely and I see more adoption by other football clubs due to the action of Arsenal football club. Arsenal football club started it and we see more very soon.

This is very good for crypto promotion. They want to gather more than 200 million $ through the ICO.
A little bit high expectations, but sounds like a serious project.

this is good for crypto currency because it will help promote it and also bring out the best image forward

And the finance industry is coming in as well with projects like Polymath where they're bridging wall street to blockchain.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-08-30/it-s-about-to-become-even-easier-to-issue-blockchain-based-coins

Of course it's all about money, Arsenal wouldn't do it for free, its a commercial business deal ... but it does raise awareness fro crypto, people look up this deal, see it's an ICO and go on to find out further information ... It's the same as the celebrities with their diet pills, teeth whitening etc etc ... If the celebrity endorsements didn't raise awareness that a significant amount of money wasnt made back, they wouldnt do it ... So i'm sure the deal with Arsenal will help the ICO.

The arsenal deal with cashbet ICO is a huge news for the crypto world and with the arsenal deal, its going to help cashbet during ICO stage. The ICO will be a success because arsenal football club is a top notch club in the UK and investors will come solely because of that.

Sports industry must be adopted to crypto world. This is going to be in near future we will not wait much.
Arselan is the first club and will gain the biggest part from crypto

Good publicity for the cryptoworld
maybe one day we will see player transfers paid in altcoins, haha

this means the public will be more familiar with Cryptocurrency because Arsenal itself is a big football club in England. And his fans are scattered all over the world starting from Europe and Asia. I strongly believe his ICO will be very successful and many big investors are in it.

Yeah! I read about that. It is great such a big football club to be promoting cryptocurrency. It gives people more trust in the crypto. Also, it brings a lot of football fans in the Crypto  ;D ;D

That's why so many new blockchain platforms are trying to raise a lot of money through ico. Arsenal just shilling for blockchain gambling based platform. as far as i know about the fact that that will not be different with anoher venture capital or hedge funds that try to promote new ico or even artist. They are making blockchain becomes mainstream but not sure about the feedback should be positive.,

Arsenal football team has a very important place in the world. will be affected by the arsenal team in other soccer teams. crypto currencies will be universal in the world. The arsenal team was first in history of football world. they were in an intelligent and profitable enterprise.

I also recently read this news on the BBC website. It's great that such large companies as whole football clubs are engaged in cryptocurrencies. I'm sure the cryptocurrency market will grow inevitably.

as the extend of chance with the attains on field as the casuals of the hooligan from all over the world, the offers of coins might gives of reference on customs with the dedication on users to gains as with the excess as moderating use of details on release with the message from the developer as following with decision to involves with the different works on manage within the field of business with the crypto finance.

I saw this article as well, insane that a huge club like arsenal are sponsored by a cyptocurrency!

World is slowly changing.

I think this is a good omen for the cryptos world. Such a gigantic and reputable soccer club showing such an amazing interest in crypto is more than encouraging something the community needs right now. Although some people will criticize this move as not so good its for a gambling company. This doesn't affect us, it only promote us the more. One of the most important impact this will have is that so many people will be opened up to reality of cryptocurrencies as football accommodates a whole lot people all across the globe. Nice one for the Cryptocurrencies world there, anticipating more of this.

Insane, I didn't see Arsenal doing this, I thought it would more likely be the east of Europe to start this. Are there any more examples of football teams getting sponsored by a cryptocurrency?

If this happens, it will be a very good promotion for cryptocurrencies. Advertising through a club like Arsenal will certainly have a positive impact on the image of bitcoin.

Great news, I hope soon more of the premier league teams will do that as well. Especially ones involved in champions league.

Desperate club promoting gambling. Sad.

good news.
I really like football.
I think this ico will be a success.
ico is related to the gaming world,
will there be a bounty program?
