The Miami Dolphins, a popular American professional football team, announced Litecoin (LTC) as the team's official cryptocurrency, and that the team has partnered with Aliant Payments, a crypto merchant services and payment processing firm. Fans will be able to use LTC, and Bitcoin, to buy raffle tickets, and there will be Litecoin in-game branding and advertisements.
Charlie Lee, the creator of Litecoin and managing director of the Litecoin Foundation, hopes to use this partnership as a way to educate the public on LTC and cryptocurrencies in general: “This collaboration propels Litecoin in front of an audience of millions of people around the world at a time where adoption of cryptocurrencies continues to gain momentum and the ecosystem is able to support real world use cases in ways previously not possible. We see this as a powerful way to raise awareness and educate people about Litecoin and cryptocurrencies on a tremendous scale.”
