Peter McCormack, a well-known podcaster in the crypto world, has bought Real Bedford FC and is funding its ambitions to join the English Premier League with Bitcoin.
Real Bedford FC has attracted investments from the Winklevoss twins and sponsorships from leading crypto companies, including Gemini, Luxor, Ledger, and Galaxy.
McCormack aims to transform Real Bedford into a Bitcoin club, allowing the club to gain sponsors and fans beyond the local area.
Despite promoting Bitcoin, McCormack wants to ensure that Real Bedford isn't regarded solely as a Bitcoin company to protect it from any backlash related to negative crypto events.
