Apparently NFL teams are receiving pressure to pay their players in alternative forms of currency, but so far they haven’t budged.
Morgan Creek Digital Co-Founder and Partner Anthony Pompliano tweeted about NFL Quarterback Matt Barkley wanting to be paid in crypto, adding:
“Matt is just one of many bitcoiners that are playing in the NFL on Sundays.”
NFL Quarterback @MattBarkley tried to get the San Francisco 49ers and Cincinnati Bengals to each pay his contracts in Bitcoin.
Neither would do it.
Matt is just one of many Bitcoiners that are playing in the NFL on Sundays 🔥🔥

While crypto Twitter didn’t hesitate to help the NFL quarterback become more engaged in the market, he let them know he was already a few steps ahead.
