Brady remarked on a SiriusXM show earlier this week, “I'd love to request that to get paid in some crypto and, you know, to get paid in some Bitcoin or Ethereum or Solana tokens.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New episode of \u201cLet\u2019s Go!\u201d with the best in the business, @JimGrayOfficial, is out now. We\u2019re talking more than just Week 2! https:\/\/t.co\/PgPkLOPBtR pic.twitter.com\/CWCyY0RRNe <\/p>\u2014 Tom Brady (@TomBrady) September 21, 2021<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s an amazing thing that\u2019s happening in the world with the way the world is becoming more digital. And these digital currencies, along with a lot of, if you look how the way the world is going, with all these different digital <\/a>mediums and how they\u2019re impacting currencies,\u201d Brady added.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn't Brady's first trip into the Bitcoin world. He and his wife Gisele B\u00fcndchen invested in FTX, a crypto exchange run by Sam Bankman-Fried, in June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an incredibly exciting time in the crypto world and Sam and the revolutionary FTX team continue to open my eyes to the endless possibilities,\u201d Brady said at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the crypto business, the exchange operator's association with Solana is well-known.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bankman-Fried offered a trader who was bearish on Solana $3 per token to buy out all of his Solana <\/a>tokens in January of this year. Although the trader declined Bankman-offer, Fried's the FTX CEO remained optimistic about the Solana project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThink of me basically as a fanboy. I think it\u2019s a really cool product,\u201d Bankman-Fried\u00a0said\u00a0in August, adding that \u201cof the currently existing blockchains, it is maybe the only one, or at least one of the very few, which is being built in a way that it has a really plausible chance of eventually being able to host gigantic applications.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brady is hardly the only NFL player to have expressed interest in cryptocurrency in recent months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russell Okung, an offensive tackle for the Carolina Panthers, began converting half of his NFL <\/a>salary into Bitcoin in December of last year, according to his Twitter account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Sean Culkin said in April this year that he will sell his NFL salary for bitcoin, following in his footsteps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Franchises from the National Football League are also getting in on the action. Earlier this month, the New York Football Giants announced a collaboration with cryptocurrency asset management firm Grayscale<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
