April 10, 2017
Cryptocurrency is set to transform the way we shop, bank and think of money, and so huge has its impact been that it's difficult to believe that it's still in its infancy. Cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin has grabbed the headlines in recent months for the huge rise its value, and although as with any currency there will be blips, its value is still far in advance of where it was a year ago. Today it's used by people of all kinds and all ages, including the rich and famous as these four sporting heroes show.
1. Mike Tyson
'Iron' Mike Tyson vies with Muhammad Ali for the title of greatest heavyweight boxer of all time, but he's without doubt the most explosive. At just under five foot eleven, Mike was far smaller than most of the heavyweights that he faced, but his incredible power often lifted them off their feet on the way to the canvas. Since retiring from boxing, Mike has turned his hand to acting and after dinner speaking, but he is also a keen investor in cryptocurrency and is now the tattooed face of Bitcoin Direct.
2. Luis Suarez
The Uruguayan forward Luis Suarez is one of the most talented, and controversial, soccer stars on the planet today. He first found worldwide fame with Liverpool before joining Barcelona to play alongside the legendary Lionel Messi. There's no doubting Luis' skills with a ball, but he has faced lengthy bans in the past for misdemeanors such as biting an opponent. He is now a vocal supporter of the Stox, the blockchain prediction market platform.

3. Richard Sherman
Richard Sherman was an integral part of the 'Legion of Boom' that helped the Seattle Seahawks win the 2014 Superbowl, and he is renowned as one of the smartest footballers in the NFL today. That's smart in a business sense as well as a positional sense, for Sherman recognized the potential and importance of cryptocurrency from a very early age. In fact, he first talked about his use of Bitcoin in 2007, having earlier adopted it as a payment method for merchandise on his official website.
