Why Pro Athletes Are Betting on Crypto
NBA forward Tristan Thompson and Coinbase’s chief legal officer Paul Grewal dive into why top athletes are hopping on Bitcoin, stablecoin rewards and on-chain prediction markets. They chat about trust in Bitcoin, how the Genius Act stoked stablecoin yields, and Coinbase’s fight to keep consumer staking and yield intact.
Beyond hype, they unpack the regulatory tug-of-war over prediction markets (CFTC vs. states), hash out crypto’s user-experience wins over banks, and even tease Tristan’s new app, basketball.fun, where fans can tip-off on games in a whole new way. Oh, and there’s a side mention of anti-crypto Democrats and the mystery of Gary Gensler’s deleted texts.
