NFL Player to Convert Salary to Bitcoin

Sean Culkin is following in the footsteps of Russell Okung, an offensive lineman for the Carolina Panthers, in converting his salary to Bitcoin. Okung chose to do 50% of his salary, but Culkin had chosen to push his chips "all in" and plans to convert 100% of his salary to Bitcoin. I expect you will see more NFL athletes, who typically have short careers, try to maximize their income to capitalize on the explosive growth of cryptocurrencies.

Trevor Lawrence, the projected #1 draft pick in the 2021 NFL Draft has signed an endorsement deal with Blockfolio and is receiving his entire league signing bonus in Bitcoin. With the amazing success that the NBA is having with their NFT offering (Top Shot) I think you will see the NFL follow in their footsteps soon. There is too much money to be made to miss this boat.
