Right now that's the case, but I'd imagine as crypto becomes more mainstream, more will become valid currency in terms of purchasing power.

Let's just put it this way, crypto currency has about a much backing as an average Central bank pressing start on the printer....

The connection to the recent Doge Coin blow up is pretty hilarious

It's a currency rather than a share. Are you comfortable holding cash in a bank? It's not really there other than a computer file saying so. Cryptos are far more immutable tbh

Research their pros and cons and what they are used for. Bitcoin has early advantage, limited supply and works best as a long term store of value like gold. Etherium also has early advatage and has smart contracts attached to them which makes them very versitle and certain (ie pre programmed agreements such as if X occurs then execute Y, e.g. if product arrives release funds). Nano allows for micro transactions (small purchases) at effectively no cost making it a useful regular/daily payment option (unlike Bitcoin which is better as a store). Most are immutable and you know their rules upfront. The records are stored on tens of thousands of independent computers all over the world (bit like file sharing) so can't be changed by a central bank or government. They are a real thing not some scam (some coins are, but not the whole concept).

TLDR version - you don't need an insider, you need to do the work to learn and research (or hope for dumb luck)

This. There’s legitimate projects, let’s be honest 95% of the current shitcoins won’t be around in 10 years. But cryptocurrency as a whole is here to stay

Sorry, I’m just being juvenile. I have no hope of getting my head around it, unfortunately.
Yeah but it’s not really a currency. Anyone popped down to Coles and bought their groceries with Dogecoin?

I think distributed ledger technology/blockchain is here to stay for sure. Cryptocurrencies... I'm not so sure on. Possibly a handful of them end up having some niche utility, but most likely scenario IMO, is that existing industries/established companies adapt the technology for current day uses. Banks already doing this. Governments will too.
I know this is pedantic, but surely our graphic design team could have done better than that blocky blue background.
Why couldn't we drop the logo down onto the white stripe like this?
Looks heaps better

Yes. And Pedigree sums up our father/sons too and with the Darcy’s we have a real pedigree of three generations.

Let's face it...the crypto exchanges that offer 500x leverage are basically punting...there's nothing healthy about offering traders that much margin...coinspot looks pretty vanilla and harmless though.

Had a little giggle at this one....
I daresay it's less to do with the designer and more to do with what the 'standard' sponsor spot is. It's consistent with our old Mercedes sponsorship.
As someone with little understanding about the world of crypto (being something that only my dumbest mates profess to know anything about, which has always been the reddest of flags for me), with recent news of one of the big exchanges going bust are we in danger of needing a new major sponsor heading into 2023?
At this stage, no. Each crypto exchange is independent of each other and crypto as a principal should stand the test of time, meaning exchanges will always be required. Coinspot being one of the main Aussie exchanges means its position in the market should be safe going forward i'd imagine.
A rumour I've heard is the club is thinking of doing a one off jumper etc. for Mission.
To say thankyou to them for the 15 years of sponsorship.
It wasnt that long ago we struggled to get sponsors iirc 02? Thats when Eddie/footy show helped out... Geez I might be getting old.
At any rate thanks Mission for the sponsorship may it continue for a very long time and a bit of plug your wraps are still awesome.

A Mission jumper is well deserved. I’d think of buying it if done well. Just wearing it in a game would be great for Mission.A rumour I've heard is the club is thinking of doing a one off jumper etc. for Mission.

100% behind a one off jumper for Mission, hell put out mascots in full getup including Mexican hats.
They've been a great sponsor, and honestly their products are 100% awesome.
