Post by: Dociko on October 02, 2020, 01:02:13 PM
Will this ultimately prove to be a significant step for mainstream adoption, or a publicity stunt? SBI esports, a subsidiary of Japanese financial services conglomerate SBI Group, announced that its esports players would receive salaries in Ripple (XRP) going forward as part of a sponsorship deal with venture capital firm, VC Trade.

According to the official announcement, player salaries will be paid via crypto instead of fiat in order to strengthen the company’s presence among esports players who also use digital currencies.
