PR Announcement: The Bitcoin Cricket Team

Introducing the Bitcoin Cricket Team - a venture to expand the sport of cricket into growth markets, whilst bringing further awareness to the power of Bitcoin.

Inspired by the revolutionary approach of the Perth Heat Baseball Team and Real Bedford Football Club, we aim to transform a community cricket team into an international franchise by leveraging the power of Bitcoin.

Our long-term vision is to become the "Harlem Globetrotters" of cricket, showcasing top-tier talent and entertaining spectators on the world stage – all on a Bitcoin Standard. To our knowledge, we are the first cricket team in the world to operate on a Bitcoin Standard.

The Bitcoin Cricket Team will be borderless, and free to move and operate wherever, and however, its members see fit.

The Bitcoin Commitment

-     Accept Bitcoin payments for sponsorships, club fees, fund-raising campaigns and merchandise.

-     Ongoing member and stakeholder education around Bitcoin.

-     Retain all Bitcoin received as a long-term strategic reserve and HODL.

-     Utilise and support as many Bitcoin-aligned suppliers and service-providers as possible.

-     Pay players in Bitcoin.

Stan Harrison is The Bitcoin Cricket Team Founder, and one of the core senior players:

“It’s a really exciting time to be involved in cricket. The sport continues to grow locally in Australia at a staggering rate given how big it already is. When you consider the ICC’s push to expand the sport into the US through Major League Cricket, and it being part of the 2028 Olympics, there are going to be more eyes on cricket than ever before.

With these tailwinds, and by tapping into the power of Bitcoin and the community as a whole, we see great potential for the team and growing the brand globally.

To our knowledge, we’ll be the first cricket team in the world to adopt a Bitcoin Standard, and actively seek to build a strategic reserve of bitcoin to meet long term growth targets and our goal of becoming an international franchise.

This is more than ‘just cricket’ - this is the future of sport, and helping the world understand the wonders of bitcoin. It’s going to be fun.”
