The 37-year-old has joined Segunda B side DUX Internacional de Madrid. He used to be Real Madrid B player

"He becomes the first signing in history in cryptocurrencies. Thanks to Criptan, our new sponsor, for making it possible."

The transfer fees isn't revealed, but in Spain, bitcon is a legal currency for business transaction as far as I know.

Is this just a marketing stunt (to promote Criptan, linked with Courtois' co-owner of the mentioned club), or is it going to be a trend from now on, which will creates even more bubbles than the already bubbled transfer market?

No one cares about bit coin and the guy :( :(

Cryptocurrency is not discussed much around my parts of the world, not like it used to be when it was trying to go big.

I can't say that this is harmful, especially if it's legal currency in that given country, but it does feel like a marketing stunt. Guess we will see how it paves its own way.

Honestly, I hadn't see that thread earlier, only reason why I haven't made a comment. XD Truth is though, I really cannot say if this is bad or not, clearly I know too little about bitcoin to make a comment as wether this is bad or not. I does think DarthFooty might be right. Also, the fact we are talking about a 37 year old who is joininga mostly a mostly lesser known doesn't really help feeling like this is a big thing.
