I am excited to share these celebrities who are proud that they do cryptocurrencies as well just like the most of us now who are reading this.
A research from Medium blog site revealed the 25 stars who are really into blockchain — and are not afraid to tell about it to millions of their fans. I have just selected a few to post it here.
The number of real crypto-enthusiasts among celebs is growing rapidly. Celebrities have an influence on a multimillion audience — both offline and online. They have a potential to spread the knowledge about crypto world and engage those who haven’t been involved in blockchain yet.
Besides playing the influencer’s card and spreading a word via Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat, stars also bring an irreplaceable expertise in talent management. Who better brings onboard a fellow athlete, actor or investor, who better knows which interactions can benefit from blockchain, or understands how important ad contracts are?
Here are a few:
Roger Ver
Roger Ver, one of the earliest crypto investors, and one of the first crypto celebrities followed by nearly half a million people. He believed in bitcoin when it was not cool yet. Currently he is involved in numerous projects, such as Bitcoin Cash, bitcoin.com, Ripple, Bitpay, Kraken, Coinsetter.
Martina Hingis
Martina Hingis is a legend on the tennis field. The winner of Australian Open, US Open, and Wimbledon, member of the Tennis Hall of Fame participated in TokenStars Crypto Christmas Charity Auction by giving a tank with her personal signature.
Mel B
Mel B was a trendsetter during her time as a Spice Girl — and she still is. She was quick to recognize the potential of cryptocurrency, becoming the first musician to accept Bitcoin as payment for her music in 2013. “Bitcoin unites my fans around the world using one currency,” she said back then.
Other artists followed the trend, but we’ll always remember who started it all.
Gwyneth Paltrow
The bitcoin-based wallet startup Abra was able to impress the renowned actress and entrepreneur Gwyneth Paltrow with the pitch during an episode of Planet of the Apps. The A-list actress joined the team as an advisor.
DJ Khaled
Rapper DJ Khaled has been endorsing ICO of Centra. He shared a photo with a Centra card on Instagram (which all his 8,5M followers could see). He also posted a video talking about storing and using various cryptocurrencies.
Jamie Foxx
There are a few celebrities who started talking about blockchain years ago, but more are joining the revolution now. One of them is the Oscar-winning Jamie Foxx who used Twitter to endorse the ICO of Cobinhood, a ‘zero trading fee cryptocurrency exchange’. He has almost 5M followers, by the way!
Mike Tyson
Boxing legend Mike Tyson partnered with Bitcoin Direct to introduce Bitcoin ATM (which makes transactions “in less time than Tyson did a knock out’’) and a digital wallet for iOS and Android. When launching the ATM line, he said he was grateful to be part of the bitcoin revolution. That was in 2015, when Bitcoin was dirt cheap compared to the current price. We hope millions of Mike’s followers on social media took the hint and bought a few coins each!
Ashton Kutcher
Hollywood actor Ashton Kutcher is a big tech investor. Kutcher is a longtime fan of blockchain technology (let’s just say he tweeted about Etherium in 2014). He is an investor in the cryptocurrency exchange, BitBay, and his firm Sound Ventures is backing Unikrn, an eSports betting digital platform. Getting him onboard could be a huge success! Can you imagine, for how many people around the world he is a role model? At least, for 18M of his fans on Facebook, 2,5M followers on Instagram and 19M on Twitter!
Floyd Mayweather
Suarez is not the only one to promote Stox: boxing champion Floyd Mayweather was quicker. Just a few days before his historic fight with Conor McGregor he hyped up the ICO of a blockchain based content marketplace, Hubii Network. He also stated that we could call him Floyd Crypto Mayweather — and announced his support for the third ICO. By sharing his support, he can potentially involve his fans on social media: 13M on Facebook, 19M on Instagram and 8M on Twitter. Seems impressive, right?
Final Words: If they can, then you can do it as well!
Happy Earnings ! ! !
