Cryptocurrency trader Bob Loukas has posted a tweet revealing why Bitcoin is “still early.”
As Super Bowl LVIII is in full swing and the whole world is watching, the aforementioned trader noticed the complete absence of advertisements for Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency. He believes this is another reason to think that the adoption and awareness of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is still at an early stage.
However, the “mess” was unexpectedly saved by Twitter founder and former CEO Jack Dorsey. Being a Bitcoin maximalist, he attended the Super Bowl wearing a “Satoshi” t-shirt. Photos of him watching a game with a somewhat bored facial expression and wearing that shirt have gone viral on Crypto Twitter. Therefore, Jack Dorsey acted as a billboard with a Bitcoin advertisement.
Interestingly, last year, Elon Musk attended the same sporting event wearing a t-shirt with the Dogecoin mascot. Perhaps Dorsey decided to follow Musk’s example.
Snowden and Kiyosaki prefer Bitcoin to the Super Bowl
Earlier today, famous whistleblower Edward Snowden tweeted that while everyone was watching the Super Bowl, he was looking at a Bitcoin chart. This happened as the world’s flagship cryptocurrency reclaimed the $48,000 level.
Today, Bitcoin has retreated and is now trading at $47,944. However, before this reversal, BTC made the highest weekly close since December 2021 as it closed at $48,158.
Snowden is known for his strong support of Bitcoin. Earlier this year, he criticized JP Morgan bank chief Jamie Dimon for his strong criticism of Bitcoin that Dimon spread during the annual Economic Forum in Davos in January.
He wasn’t the only influencer who found Bitcoin more interesting than the Super Bowl. Over the weekend, “Rich Dad Poor Dad” author Robert Kiyosaki also endorsed Bitcoin in his tweet, mentioning the Super Bowl.
Kiyosaki predicted the coming collapse of the American empire, similar to how the Roman Empire collapsed. The financial guru also compared the Super Bowl to the gladiator games in which Roman emperors distracted citizens from the major economic problems facing the empire. He urged users to buy Bitcoin instead of betting on the game.
