  • The Football space seems positive about cryptocurrencies.

Due to the new sponsorship deal, English Premier League’s (EPL) club, Southampton, will have a chance to receive bonuses in Bitcoin.

Southampton has entered into a new agreement with a major sponsor. The football club will receive bonus payments in crypto for performance. According to the announcement on its website, Southampton will receive performance bonuses in Bitcoin from betting platform Sportsbet.io.

EPL’s club has extended its contract with the bookmaker for three years.
