Proof, not Endorsements. Bitcoin Tech Talk #243

Bitcoin 2021 has shown that there are a lot of celebrities in Bitcoin. Such well-known luminaries as Ron Paul, Floyd Mayweather, Tony Hawk and Kevin O’Leary spoke at the conference. That’s not including the many other known celebrities that are into Bitcoin from Paris Hilton to Tom Brady.
