Many basketball associations are beginning to develop an interest in digital technologies, especially crypto-related ones. A typical example was the collaboration between Sacramento kings and a crypto mining hardware company to inculcate Ether in its Golden 1 Center.

The profit generated from this will be used for charity – particularly for an initiative called ‘MiningForGood’ that will help to educate the masses on technology and develop a healthy workforce.

Also, Cleveland Cavaliers have signed an official partnership with UnitedCoin. Through the connection, UnitedCoin will be able to advertise through Cavalier, and also, the basketball team will receive a fintech roadmap from UnitedCoin.
