Sports is one thing that unites the entire world. Even countries who appears to be political and economic rivals are usually united around sports as evident during world tournament events like the World Cup and the Olympic Games.

I believe if cryptocurrency is adopted as payment method for sporting activities including domestic league games stadium tickets and more importantly, the most watched league event in the world such as the UEFA Champions League, cryptocurrency global adoption will be actualized even earlier than expected.

What are your opinions?

Definitely, sport has a lot of power when it comes to spreading currencies (or cryptocurrencies) around the globe, but would it be fair enough to impose this process on humans right away? If gamblers for instance are left with nothing else but cryptocurrencies to pay for the odds, this would be unfair.

A good idea would probably be a combination of crypto and non-crypto methods.

Crypto does not need to replace existing forms, it should be an extra option people could use. Not forced upon anyone.
