Interesting re: sports integrity issues in the context of NFTs ππ½ The increasingly widespread use of #crypto in sport generally is likely, in my opinion, to give rise to lots of potential sports integrity headaches for sports governing bodies in the future.
New: two Ajax players, Daley Blind and Davy Klaassen, inadvertently leaked team news ahead of Sunday's Dutch Cup final defeat by their trades on NFT game Sorare. Raises big questions because they potentially profited financially from dressing room intel. https://t.co/icSwxPFiWL
