Topic: Bitcoin in football - page 4. (Read 893 times)
It's true that wartford fc's jersey has the bitcoin logo on its left arm, they are sponsored by sportsbet.io. it's been several months, at least the bitcon community has grown bigger since sportsbet.io has been a sponsor for the football club. They also benefit from the promotion for being in the gambling game industry.
Still a good a news tho. It's not new to me since a lot of celebrity now are involved in cryptocurrency.
Like Pacquiao released his first ever cryptocurrency, the Pac coin.

I saw other MMA tv programs are being aired with a Bitcoin logo at the middle of the ring which blown my mind because this is unexpected.

I don't think pacquiao would have a concrete reason for releasing his own coin. As far as I know, he's a Senator and his schedule is so tight to even manage to set up his own coin. I suggest, large business owners would be better to create their coin as they can use it in big investment or create their own investment platform to fully maximize the coin that they want to create.
That's kind of neat, seeing something about bitcoin when you weren't expecting to. That did happen to me once when a restaurant's menu had a bitcoin symbol on it under the payment options. I wasn't blown away like you were, nor was there anybody with me at the time, but it said to me that bitcoin is slowly creeping into the mainstream.
That dogecoin race car from a few years back was also pretty neat, even tho it wasn't bitcoin. It did at least make cryptocurrency visible to whoever was watching. Seems like a small thing, but the more symbols of bitcoin that are around, the more curious people will be about what it means, and more visibility should lead to greater adoption.

The problem with Dogecoin is that it can be confused with the actual doge meme the coin is inspired from. Also, the one responsible for that sponsorship, turned out to be a shameful scammer, that got money from people expecting a return of investment in crypto ATMs, and later a couple of failed exchanges.
At least with the football sponsors, one was a Sports betting site, and now an Exchange, that's much more better. Its is nice to have the public imprinted with the BTC logo, so next time they see it, will feel familiar to it.
Bitcoin is being recognize and promoted in various ways.
If I am not mistaken there used to be a comercial of sports in our country and one of the sports have a floor that have a BTC logo on it.

I would be pretty amazed and happy to see food for sale with bitcoin. There many online stores but almost never offline. There is only one place I know of that sell miners and you can purchase with bitcoin and there is a coffee shop next to it that accepts bitcoin.
I asked a friend at the table what they thought the sponsor was from and he said probably an exchange. Turns out he was right. The Turkish exchange BtcTurk was the sponsor.
He was actually incorrect.The Watford shirt sponsor is bitcoin betting site sportsbet.io. You can read the announcement on sportsbet here (https://sportsbet.io/promotions/watford-fc-sponsorship), and on Watford's website here (https://www.watfordfc.com/club/partners/official-sportsbetio-becomes-new-front-shirt-sponsor). Their shirt has the sportsbet.io logo across the chest, with the bitcoin logo on the sleeve. You can also see both the sportsbet logo and the bitcoin symbol in various places around their stadium. Example:
BtcTurk have sponsored Yeni Malatyaspor, a Turkish club. They have simply put their BtcTurk logo across the chest.
Sorry about that. I got them the wrong way around. Thanks for pointing that out.

Well, for some of us who follow the English premier league with key interest, we got to know of this unique sponsorship at the beginning of the season. Interesting times ahead, I was always excited when I heard the news. This is a positive sign that would make more people enquire more about bitcoin since the EPL is widely popular across the globe.
That's great to hear, actually i came across a similar post where some European teams have agreed to use bitcoins in some of their football purchases. I know this would encourage other clubs as well to adopt the use of bitcoin as one of their payment methods. The sources of these are below:

On Saturday the 19th I was at a pub and grill with friends for a birthday. While I was there I happened to look up at one of the tv screens and a football match was on. I do not watch football nor do I know much about the leagues. I understand how the game works and that's about it. While I was watching I noticed something but just to make sure I asked the table if they saw it too and they confirmed it. (there were 5 of us at the table 2 of which know and understand bitcoin and how it works they just don't own their own crypto I don't know why) What we saw was the bitcoin logo BTC on the sleeves of Watford FC players. I was excited and glad to see it. I asked a friend at the table what they thought the sponsor was from and he said probably an exchange. Turns out he was right. The Turkish exchange BtcTurk was the sponsor.

Has anything like this happened to you when you didn't expect it? What did the people with you at the time have to say?

Yes this has happened sometime ago, Watford vs Man city I think, I also watch the match and saw at first hand the btc logo on their Jersey, it was really amazing and even more better was the fact that the stadium was filled with football fans, it was a big exposure for btc and crypto in general, yeah, btc is gaining mainstream popularity and adoption is spreading.
Although the Watford team was beaten to a fault but it was still a nice match to watch because of the btc logo, at least to me
