Bitcoin used as a payment from a long time but as far I know it used as a reward is the first and this kind of activity proves the bright future of bitcoin.

Bitcoin have come to stay, bitcoin have come to dominant, bitcoin is taking over. All sectors will soon have no option order than to adopt bitcoin because adopting bitcoin will determine the speed of any organization.

Athletes maybe will confused when accepting Bitcoin, it would be wise if the athlete or even other players given an explanation of how to exchange or use it. That way, what is done by eToro will be more optimal.
I hope this will have a good impact on Bitcoin.

This news will have a very positive impact on cryptocurancy, this will foster investor confidence and stabilize the market. Although this is not bitcoin was first used in the sports industry but currently the market under all this news gives investors confidence, and can be a good means of promotion to attract more new investors to enter crypto investment.

They're not just going to give the players something they don't even understand and hope they work it out. Besides, this is about sponsorship for teams not individual athletes.

I wonder how much it actually costs to sponsor a premier league team? I'm sure it's not that much for one of the newly promoted teams to the league or one further down the league table. The community could actually pool together to get bitcoin to be their sponsor. Would be really cool to see the BTC logo on their shirts and would be great for adoption.

Something like this on the front of their shirts would be sweet:

That's great news, few weeks ago There was a news that India is also recognize bitcoin as a betting system inside the country. That means World is about to create regulation for crypto currency. As we now most of young generation is also in crypto currency world and Crypto currency in sports can attract more youth into sports.

The promotion of cryptocurrencies through sport is a very good idea. Football is one of the most popular sports with a huge number of fans. This method of promotion can positively influence the image of the entire crypto market and bring significant benefits by increasing confidence in btc.

There are many news about Bitcoin usage in the business, sports, everywhere. It means the new money systems name is cryptocurrency. This is the new world order and the we are having last years of paper money. In that case the usage and the price will grow..

You might be surprised. You can read this article below to find out how much Premier League sponsorship are worth.Obviously to sponsor a team like Manchester United you'll have to pay the big bucks, but like you said, the smaller clubs don't demand that much and all teams get equal playing time (though the bigger games get shown more on TV).

To break it down for you: Huddersfield get 1.5 million for their shirt deal - Ope Sports (never heard of them). American Express sponsor Brighton also for 1.5 million who are a huge business. Man United are the biggest earners with a whopping 47 million from Chevy. Looking at those figures I'm sure someone could organize some sort of crowdfunding or something if people thought it was in the interest of bitcoin. I'm sure it will only be a matter of time before some other big bitcoin-based companies like Coinbase or something start doing such big sponsorships though.

This is a very good news. If athletes will support bitcoin then their fans will also support it.

[vin22]

Wow that is a good news.  This is one of the thing which we want to be hearing because sporting is world wild so with its help it is going public more than it has already been.  If more sport center make approve of it will be far better

[musharaf]

It will be more good if crypto is used for it and the world sports like cricket and foot ball will better with it Bitcoin is the one which is  useful in every thing and accepted world wide now the bitcoin growth is often seen by every one

[zarintasnim]

Its a very good news for bitcoin and also bitcoin user who love bitcoin. Although it is not first time to use cryptocurrency in sport industry. I think not only use bitcoin in football to give man of the match award also use cricket game and other game in this way bitcoin become more and more popular and strong.

It is not only a Premier League matter.
In Italy the Rimini football club was the first club sold in crypto.

This is only the first movement of payment for services using blockchain and bitcoin. This is not the only transaction carried out in the network with the help of electronic money, last year such transactions were not rare. Today, they are growing in number every day.  Even banks made a money transfer using the ripple network and this is just the beginning.
We are going to a new time where payment with bitcoin tokens will gain momentum because this is the future.

[vnck25]

I think this is very good news for bitcoins as well as other cryptocurrencies. The future is obviously bright for cryptos and blockchain technology. But since the current trend is not that good in view of cryptocurrency investments, many people are speculating that this is the end of bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies. This is far from the truth and the post that you share is just one of many use cases that we see that are being done with bitcoins (or other cryptos).

This is quite a good idea. I wish cryptocurrency or at least Bitcoin will be accepted for stadium tickets in UK and other top football leagues in the world.
