There are almost 3️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣athletes competing at the PyeongChang Olympics, but there is only 1️⃣ who is paid in cryptocurrency. Canadian 🇨🇦speed skater @tedjanb recently became the first athlete to be paid in virtual money when he struck a one-year sponsorship deal with @ong.social — a social network and crypto community — and @ceekvr — a developer of virtual reality experiences.
