He is an optimist of the space but knows a poor product when he sees one. He highlights some areas where crypto brands might be able to provide more significant value to sport.
In addition, I have put together an article that serves as both a guide to help sports fans not get ripped off and calls for regulators and sports institutions to do more to protect sports lovers.
