The Bitcoin Powered Real Bedford Is Heading To The Big Leagues

avatar

I laughed about it but just imagine the level of media coverage that a game between Real Bedford and Wrexham would make! The Welsh club is the third-oldest professional football team in the world, and got into the spotlights after Deadpool and his friend bought the club!

Real Bedford is another successful story in the making, as Peter McCormack pledged to use his crypto-network to bring his home club into the top of the British football pyramid. to climb to the Premier League. Ryan Reynolds, Rob McElhenney and Peter McCormack .... let's make this Hollywood story happen!

_It is important to separate Bitcoin and Crypto. Firstly, we aren’t some group of crypto bros from America buying a random team, I am from Bedford, my team is from Bedford and we have the goal of doing something great in this town - _Peter McCormack

The club is powered by Bitcoin and the vision is innovative. Same as Peter, I believe that crypto and blockchain solutions are the future, but investing has significant risks.

The users know that Bitcoin is not a domestic currency but a global currency, available for anyone, anywhere in the world. Cryptocurrencies are the solution for a financial system not affected by inflation.

Last year, I left my mark on blockchain history, being the first match official that was paid his referee fee in crypto! Call me the "Crypto Ref" if you want, but I am just a sport passionate that found a synergy between two of my passions. Read all about it in "Playing the Bitcoin Game: Real Bedford v Shefford & Campton"

I was paid in $BTC after the game and received $59.73 in my Coinbase Wallet, just few minutes after the payment! I become part of blockchain history and proud to be the 1st referee receiving his payment in crypto! It happened on 12th of July 2022 ... is written on the blockchain!

The 0.003 Bitcoin was set on HODL mode, and as you reading this is worth it more than last year

Fast forward one season... and Real Bedford smashed the league! They won the Spartan South Midlands Division One with 99 points, and scored 123 goals in the 2022-2023 campaign! The fantastic season recorded 32 wins, 3 draws and only 4 defeats in the whole season. The fantastic season was completed with another trophy, as the pirates won the Bedfordshire Senior Cup!

The season ended with a 6-0 win, and the party started in Bedford! A new season will start soon, with new challenges... and new achievements. The journey towards the top of the English football pyramid started already, and matches in the FA competitions will follow!

The celebration moved online, where the CHAMPIONS code gave a 50% discount on all merchandise! It gets even better, as Bitcoin is available as a payment option. Who needs Visa when we can use BTC to buy a t-shirt!

A full crypto adoption would need more tokens integrated for shopping, but buying football gear with crypto is always a good experience. There are not many places in the UK where crypto bros can spend crypto, and this is definitely a step forward for blockchain!

I selected my orange t-shirt, and continued with my on-chain payment! I spent other cryptocurrencies before, used Travala for crypto-funded holidays, but this was the first time I used Bitcoin as a method of payment.

I used the Bitcoin.Com wallet for the transaction, as I could log into it straight from the Real Bedford website. This is web3 at it's best, because the standard website integrated crypto solutions and the possibility to sign the transaction from the wallet. Few clicks later and the payment was sent.

The payment was initiated on the website, and received my order confirmation minutes later. Bitcoin goes up, Bitcoin goes down... but the long term growth is all that matters. In few years this t-shirt will be a really expensive piece of clothing, and hopefully I will not be mentioned as the guy that wasted 0.0015 BTC on a football shirt!

It's good to see that Real Bedford is getting more space on local media! The Bedford newspaper published a half page with Peter McCormack and approach towards a winning mentality!

While we wan to be an inclusive club, we want to be a winning club. I want every team to win every trophy it can, whether you are our men's senior team or an under-7 youth team. Football is competitive, and Bedford is here to compete
