The football club announced this on its official website on 12 September. The club made a partnership with Cryptocurrency sport betting website Sportsnet.io and put the Bitcoin (B) logo on players kit.

Bitcoin Awareness Campaign

According to the official post the campaign is a part of much wider campaign. The post added: “improve awareness around Bitcoin and educate the public on the benefits of using cryptocurrencies.”

The head of marketing of Sportsnet.io, Justin Le Brocque said that it’s a small step to give back the crypto community saying:

“The crypto community have been hugely supportive of us since we began, so putting the Bitcoin logo on the sleeve felt like a fun way to give something back while also showing them our support.”

The sponsorship will be crowdfunded and anyone can bid using bitcoin to access a LED space during live matches and exclusive to Watford FC merchandise. Justin Le further added that the step will create more buzz for Cryptocurrencies among public.
