This has been lauded as a brilliant move, proving that Wysocki thinks ahead of his time. Although this is the first of its kind in disc golf, it’s not very uncommon in sports. Over the years, several pro athletes have taken their payments in Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency.
Some of the big names include Top NBA player Cade Cunningham, Sean Culkin of Kansas City Chiefs, NFL’S Odell Beckham, and many others. While Wysocki has only taken the initial bonus amount, these pro athletes have their entire salaries paid in Bitcoin or Crypto.
In the case of football legend Lionel Messi, payments are in the form of ‘fan tokens’ created by the team.
Because cryptocurrency has the potential of becoming double in the future, athletes are fast-changing their preference for this mode of payment.
Wysocki excited about this new deal
Wysocki is quite excited about this deal. He believes this is the right time in his career for this deal.
“It’s been amazing working with Dynamic Discs and their vision with coming out with new products, new discs and that’s something I’ve definitely wanted to do at this stage in my career,” said Wysocki.
