The #8-ranked UFC flyweight fighter Matheus Nicolau penned a deal to receive his future fight earnings in Bitcoin through the payroll service, Bitwage.
O #8 na lestvici UFC flyweight fighter Matheus Nicolau penned a deal to receive his future fight earnings in bitcoin through the payroll service, Bitwage, on March 21st, 2022. Nicolau is the first Latin American UFC athlete to take a paycheck in bitcoin.
“I’m thrilled to be receiving my earnings in bitcoin,” Nicolau stated. “As an athlete, I work hard to earn a living for myself, but with rising inflation I worry that this hard work goes to waste. By using Bitwage to earn bitcoin, I know that I am securing the value of my work.”
Nicolau, a Brazilian native of Belo Horizonte, has come to understand the importance of Bitcoin, while the market has seen explosive growth over the past two years in South America due to economic burdens like inflation.
“We are very bullish on Bitcoin,” Nicolau’s manager Vinícius Las Casas commented, “and we are looking to spread the Bitcoin gospel with this latest deal.” Alongside the Brazilian fighter, his manager will also be using Bitwage to receive a portion of his wages in bitcoin.
Bitwage is the world’s largest payroll, invoicing, and benefits company in the Bitcoin space. Its services allow both individuals and companies around the world to receive their monthly wages in bitcoin. Bitwage is pioneering the payroll industry with its bitcoin 401k in Lightning izdelki za obračun plač.
"Delo z Matheusom je bila za nas nagrajujoča izkušnja," je dejal izvršni direktor Bitwage Jonathan Chester. "Je neverjeten borec s šampionsko mentaliteto."
Nicolau is among the latest in a trend of professional athletes pioneering bitcoin deals: professional soccer players Achara Ifunanyachi in Alex Crognale naredila podobne finančne poteze leta 2021 z Bitwage.
Borci MMA na splošno in celo nekateri mednarodno priznanih zvezdnikov v UFC, so plačani v pavšalnih zneskih šele po svojih dogodkih, velik del njihovega plačila je odvisen od uspešnega nastopa in bonusov za uspešnost. Mnogi borci so prisiljeni prevzeti dodatna dela zunaj svojih strogih in dolgotrajnih režimov usposabljanja, samo da bi lahko plačali svoje ekipe za treniranje in okrevanje.
Zlasti UFC je razvpit po tem, da podcenjuje nekatere izmed svojih borcev z najvišjimi plačami za ogled, z nekaterimi najbolj odlikovani borci preprosto odidejo iz organizacije ali poiščejo in sprejmejo visoko plačane možnosti navzkrižnega boja v boksu. Through Bitwage, fighters like Nicolau can get paid in bitcoin without the UFC being onboarded to the service. They can focus on training, while knowing their savings are secure in bitcoin.
Storitve Bitwage so na voljo tudi širšemu trgu. Tukaj je, kako deluje: You register with Bitwage and receive a bank account number. Next, you choose what percentage of your paycheck you want to receive in bitcoin, and then you give the new account number to your employer. Once they send the paycheck, you will receive bitcoin in an address that you control. If you did not allocate 100% of your wage into bitcoin in a given pay period, you will receive the rest of the money in your regular bank account. This is exactly how Matheus will be receiving his future payments from the UFC.
“Matheus represents our exponential growth trend in Latin America, with people opting to get paid in bitcoin in order to preserve their hard-earned money,” Chester stated.
Za Nicolaua in drugi borci MMA, ki razumejo vrednost trdega denarja, and a sound store of value, Bitcoin is the solution. Bitcoin will preserve their irregular earnings over time when custodied correctly. It allows fighters to alleviate future career uncertainty, by providing them with an appreciating sovereign wealth fund.
Nicolau is currently enjoying a four fight win streak in the UFC. This deal comes only days before Nicolau’s fight on March 26th against David Dvorak in Columbus, Ohio. Win, lose, or draw, his earnings will be immediately processed by Bitwage and converted into bitcoin.
Nicolau explains, “I make my money the hard way. I bleed for it. MMA is an intense sport that you put everything you have into. While I constantly fight on one hand, I have a feeling I am constantly losing money on the other. Then it hit me: Bitcoin is the solution. I worked with Bitwage to create this solution to ensure that my work pays dividends in the future.”
