The NBA’s Trail Blazers revealed this week that the basketball team has entered a deal with the blockchain company Stormx.

Essentially, Stormx will be the Portland team’s first International Rights Partner that is meant to “engage fans around the globe.” Stormx will have the rights to conduct team-identified marketing and other forms of activities internationally. The Stormx logo will be featured on the team’s uniform as well, the announcement explains. Chris McGowan, the president and CEO of the Portland Trail Blazers and Rose Quarter, said he looks forward to seeing the team sport “such a groundbreaking, revolutionary company on the front of our jerseys.”
“Stormx is a fresh, energetic company with Pacific Northwest roots that can educate and motivate Rip City around cryptocurrency and earning crypto cashback,” McGowan added. “I look forward to taking these next steps together as partners.”
