Litecoin Foundation to Sponsor Ultimate Fighting Championship!

[wry]

After yesterday's depressing news about bad guys hijacking the Electrum client to phish users time for something a little more light hearted!

The Litecoin Foundation has made a deal to become a sponsor for the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) upcoming match tomorrow (Dec. 29) in California, USA.  This gives me flashbacks to the glory days of Doge when they sponsored Josh Wise in a NASCAR race.  Of course, that didn't really help the coin that much, but it was a lot of fun and Doge is still hanging around, so maybe this will help.

I don't know that much about UFC, but I do know it is very popular with young people in the USA and given their interest in cryptocurrencies I hope this will reach them and reinforce their interest or inspire it!

Any UFC fans out there?

That's really a very good news, sponsoring events like this can make cryptocurrency to feature on TV and media more and it will really make people more aware about the crypto.

That's actually pretty cool that a crypto foundation has sponsored a relatively large event. A positive thing for the crypto community indeed!

It was between which ufc champions ? Also this is a great step to proceed and help the crypto community grow. Indeed a great thing done by them.

I think its a great way to being popularity to litecoin.  Many people know about bitcoin but not to many know about other crypto currencies so this is a nice way to bring it to non crypto users.

Wow Litecoin foundation will be sponsoring such mainstream sporting events, eh? That would surely bring so much more spotlight on cryptocurrency upon the masses!
