On side note: Drake loses $350,000 on this one. lol
Canadian rapper Drake wagered $355,000 on Mike Tyson in his fight against Jake Paul, which took place on November 15, 2024, at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Known for his sports betting, Drake backed 58-year-old Tyson in his return to the ring. However, Tyson lost to 27-year-old Paul by unanimous decision, resulting in Drake losing his bet.sourceIs this Drake really gambling with his own cryptocoins? This appears for me very much similar to these influencers in the cryptospace or in streaming services like Twitch who are being given some tokens to gamble and shill on social media heheheh.
In any case, yes if he is being given be the sportsbook to gamble than this would be a very good marketing tactic to use on us small minnows hehehehe.
