Bitcoin May Enter NASCAR

Following the dogecoin community’s sponsorship of NASCAR driver Josh Wise at Telledega, bitcoin may soon boast its own promotional racer in the iconic US series. Rookie driver Alex Bowman and his team, BK Racing, have announced their involvement in a crowdfunding campaign called ‘Bitcoin23’ that aims to bring a bitcoin-themed car to the NASCAR Sprint Cup.

The campaign kicks off today and runs until 20th August, with the aim to promote bitcoin while supporting the 21-year-old driver. With the support of the bitcoin community, the organisers hope to raise $100,000 for a full sponsorship.

If successful, the team and driver will run the bitcoin-branded car during the Labor Day weekend race at Atlanta Motor Speedway on 29th-31st August.

He made his debut at the national level of NASCAR in 2012, and has since twice won the Nationwide Series pole at Texas. BK Racing is a stock car racing team with a focus on introducing technological innovation to NASCAR.
