ABOUT
This episode is sponsored by Circle and NEAR.
What is it with sports and crypto? Crypto does reward and incentivize actions that reinforce a sense of belonging to a community that sporting institutions, athletes and fans all know well. But with this crypto winter, will fans be left with something of lasting value that enhances their engagement with their favorite teams and athletes – or are they merely being exploited for money?
On today’s episode of “Money Reimagined,” to dive deeper into this topic with hosts Michael Casey and Sheila Warren are CoinDesk contributing writer Jeff Wilser and Sean O’Brien, from BuyTheBroncos DAO, which was launched to set up a fund to acquire the storied Denver football team.
