Come 14th June 2018, the world's biggest sporting event, the FIFA World Cup, will kick off in Russia. People from all walks of life will travel to Russia to witness this unique event. To some, this is an opportunity to be there, irrespective of whether their country has qualified or not.
Russia, as we all know, is one of the prominent countries that accepts the use of cryptocurrencies. For this reason, many hotels, restaurants, bars, night clubs, camping sites, tourists sites etc, will definitely make bitcoin a means of payment.
So, could Russia 2018 be an opportunity for cryptocurrencies to spread further far and wide? Could this be an opportunity for cryptocurrency to be made known to those who currently have no idea?
And could this be considered as another turning point to the crypto-community?
Sure, I believe the ongoing event is a great opportunity for the crypto community to expand. To some extent there would be an increase in the activities involving bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies; it has also led to the spearheading of vital projects such as the Sportsfix ICO which aims at allows fans to participate and engage with their favorite sporting events in a self-contained economy with all digital transactions employing smart contracts backed by blockchain technology.
