The link between major sports stars and Crypto-currency just got a whole lot stronger!!
Quarterback Trevor Lawrence will almost certainly be picked up at number one in the upcoming draft, and he’s about to get paid in Bitcoin.
Lawrence announced a multi-year deal with Blockfolio, a popular cryptocurrency portfolio tracker.
The investment app said they gave Lawrence a “significant” signing bonus on Friday that has already gained in value over the weekend.
