Green Bay Packers legend, quarterback Aaron Rodgers, announced today on Twitter that he has partnered with Cash App to take a portion of his NFL salary in bitcoin.
Rodgers did not share any details on how much of his salary he’s chosen to accept in bitcoin.
Though Rodgers may make a lot more money than the average joe, he is still victim to the consequences of money printing and inflation.
Rodgers is the latest NFL player to accept bitcoin as payment for his services on the field, following North Carolina Panther Russel Okung and free agent Sean Culkin who both took the leap in the past year.
This announcement is sure to make headlines all around the nation as he is just the latest big name star to begin the process of opting out of fiat currency for the financial revolution that is bitcoin.
