According to a ChainCatcher message, Decrypt reported that retired NFL Carolina Panthers player Russell Okung announced on Thursday that he would allow his newly founded flag football league, Bitball, to pay players compensation in Bitcoin.
Okung said in the interview that he envisioned a league where players could earn Bitcoin, fans could have real stake, and the community could build wealth.
Okung added, “No more middlemen taking commissions or operating in secrecy. Now it’s pure sport and pure Bitcoin, which means pure opportunity. This is the new league I’m building.”
