Axiom eSports is pleased to announce our newest sponsor, /r/Bitcoin!
/r/Bitcoin is the Reddit subcommunity devoted to the discussion and exchange of information surrounding the digital currency Bitcoin used worldwide. It’s a great place to find resources on Bitcoin cryptocurrency along with information on how to get started. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that is accepted by a growing number of businesses online. It can be used to transfer funds to others instantly at any time with a negligible fee as well as stay anonymous and secure online with your transactions, avoiding the pitfalls of credit card fraud.
Moderator of the subreddit Piotr Piasecki gave a statement about the new partnership saying “We at the /r/Bitcoin community are excited to be working with TotalBiscuit again. The community response during the Bitcoin Starcraft was very positive, so we decided to continue the relationship. We hope the sponsorship will be useful to the Axiom team and will promote the Bitcoin use in eSports scene.”
"We're happy to be working with the folks over at r/Bitcoin once again,” stated TotalBiscuit. “We previously worked together to bring the biggest showmatch in SC2 history into being and it went off without a hitch. It makes sense for something as cutting edge as cryptocurrency to be involved with another cutting edge industry like eSports. An increasing number of sites are starting to accept Bitcoin including Starcraft’s own Teamliquid and /r/Bitcoin is a great place to find guides and information on how to start using cryptocurrency. We'd like to thank the /r/Bitcoin community for their support and hope to bring home results in return.”

So /r/bitcoin will basically be the first sponsor ever to ONLY give cash?

Inb4 the sponsorship is a bunch of mining rigs. But it does come with reddit gold and random tips for crank's reddit account!

I'd rather have bitcoin tbh. Getting bitcoin is like getting cash with a sick interest rate.

Sick indeed! About -50% over the past four months....
Well, grats to Axiom, although I wonder how a subreddit can make enough money to sponsor a team... Still, I'm very excited for TB and the rest of the team!

I'm gonna assume using similar methods that dogecoin did seeing as they are sponsoring a nascar driver.

I think this is the first time I've seen a subreddit become an official sponsor of an organization.
|
Absolutely stupid.
I suppose reddit and tb are a match made in heaven though.
|
Congratulations TB, Axiom and /r/BitCoin.
I hope the combination of this and (hopefully) good merchandise sales mean that Axiom can get that second zerg on their roster.

Reddit helping sponsor TB? Interesting…
Good luck to both of them.

I wonder just how much they are providing, but cool nonetheless.
