Team Satoshi
Next stop in our ongoing pursuit of exploring the cross section between Bitcoin and sport is Team Satoshi.
Team Satoshi describes themselves as follows:
"Team satoshi is a sports team.
We create awareness for bitcoin and bring forward the decentralization of money and power. We believe in a world of global, open, neutral, censorship-resistant and decentralized sound money for the people. We organize private sports challenges and local sports teams as well as contribute to public sports events. We advocate for human rights, the cypherpunk manifesto and the bitcoin whitepaper. Sportswomen and sportsmen can become part of team satoshi anywhere in the world and are encouraged to start own projects/ challenges/ teams. In return for creating mainstream awareness and bringing bitcoin adoption forward, participants/ teams can get sponsored by collecting donations from the bitcoin community and/ or through other forms of sponsorship. We support sports, art and other forms of creativity & community engagement."
