I was going to buy their Bitcoin hat last year but the logo is just screen printed on the hat so I didn't bother.
Yeah. I just looked. The merch doesn't look great, and there doesn't appear to be a pay with bitcoin option. I think we need to contact the team.

They had a bitcoin payment option last year because that is how I was going to pay but I wasn't happy with the quality and the shipping made it more expensive than I wanted to pay for a hat I was essentially buying just out of support. When the CBO gets back to me I will ask him about the Bitcoin payment option as well.
Honestly, I don't know how well this league is doing. They had 8 teams last year and played 40 games, now they have 6 teams and it looks like they are playing 32 (unless I am missing some doubleheaders). Last year all the games were streamable but this year only select games across the league are available on the baseball plus app (which I downloaded to try and watch the game Saturday as it started earlier due to the double header- but some other ABL game was on). Also the Heat used to have a good presence on twitter but they haven't tweeted out anything since early Oct when they were doing Spring Training. I thought I could get game updates by following their twitter, as I did last year but nope. That is also where they posted all the QR codes for fans to zap.
Looks like the Heat need the bull market to kick into gear. Haha.

I'm looking forward to hearing what you learn. Maybe SN future sports sub should buy a team?

Did you watch The Saint Of Second Chances on Netflix? Great minor league baseball stuff. Its about Bill Veeck and his son. I highly recommend it.
