• With the entrance of Iguodala and Thompson, the relationship between the National Basketball Association and the crypto industry continues to strengthen.
• Last summer, another star – Detroit Pistons’ Cade Cunningham partnered with BlockFi, and his bonus was paid in BTC.
• Another California-based team – the Sacramento Kings – was at the forefront of BTC adoption as the club allowed its fans to pay in the cryptocurrency for tickets years ago. In April 2021, the Kings’ owner said the players could receive their salaries in bitcoin as well.
• Mark Cuban’s Dallas Mavericks, on the other hand, went a step further last year as they added Dogecoin next to BTC for merchandise payments.
