Cryptocurrency F1 Sponsorship: If you’re doing it, you’re winning

THELOGICALINDIAN - Last ages FuturoCoin active a advocacy accord with Aston Martin Red Bull Racing Chris Harfield and Joe Williams founders of WilliamsHarfield sports accumulation pioneered the aboriginal Formula One cryptocurrency affiliation Now they explained what that accord absolutely agency for the accomplished cryptocurrency industry

Do alike cryptocurrencies fit Formula One?

Chris Harfield: I anticipate they do. Cryptocurrencies, as of appropriate now, are acid the edge. The technology is futuristic. And what Formula One does, it antecedents things in the automated sector. Things that are for the future. When we allocution about regenerating activity from F1 car’s brakes, it is a technologically avant-garde solution. That was pioneered in Formula One. And after it was broadcast to the blow of the world. So, this access aligns with cryptocurrencies. It is forward-thinking. It is a anarchy the way bodies use and authority money. Time will acquaint if it’s article that would be best up by the masses. The aforementioned case is with Formula One developments. I’m abiding that cryptocurrencies will be best up by above population.

Why is FuturoCoin’s advocacy so unique?

CH: It is different because it is the aboriginal of its kind. These days, it is actual attenuate to be the aboriginal one aural your industry to accomplish that array of advocacy deal. Thanks to the affiliation with Aston Martin Red Bull Racing, FuturoCoin has become the aboriginal agenda bill to anytime sponsor Formula One team. There won’t be addition adventitious for added agenda assets to be the aboriginal again. This is why it is a celebrated moment for the accomplished cryptocurrency industry, and it will be remembered forever.

Do you think, there will be others, who will chase the aisle of FTO?

CH: Eventually, yes. It will be absorbing to see, how the blow [of the industry – ed.] will initially react, and what they will appetite to do. Maybe, they will try to do added abutting time. Perhaps some agenda assets will try to booty over the name of the Formula One team. Maybe this time abutting year, we will be calling it FuturoCoin Red Bull Racing.

Please, acquaint me, what absolutely makes the action bigger than music, movies or celebrities. Why is it bigger to sponsor sports teams rather than actors or musicians?

Joe Williams: Emotions. The affections are a huge factor. You don’t accept that with music or films. There is lots of passion, but the akin of affections will never be alike abutting to those from the sport. You don’t get millions of bodies affability in every anniversary to chase musicians or actors. Once a year, twice, maybe. But not every week. In Formula One, you accept 21 contest all about the world, with this huge all-around viewership. It’s the media numbers and the added ambit you get through Formula One. That makes it so appealing.

CH: And the amusing side. Last night, there was a big football match. Everybody met in the confined to watch that match. They don’t do that for music events. They don’t do it to watch actors. They ability go to the cinema, but they won’t do that every week. You can’t watch  something new with your admired amateur every weekend. In the sport, you’ve got connected admission to the massive fanbase that the antagonism has. Games are the alone affair that bodies still do watch live. Other things, you can adore on demand. You can watch Netflix, area you can abeyance anytime you want. You can consistently appear aback to that addition time. In the sport, you aloof can’t do that. Because of that, brands will abide to advance themselves aural sports. If you attending at the tv advertising, a lot of bodies change channels back the bartering is on or they leave the room. Back it comes to sports event, you aloof watch advertisements on cars, equipment, etc.

But sports advocacy is absolutely expensive, abnormally Formula One. So, do you anticipate that the accumulation of this accord would be bigger than the costs?

JW: There are consistently altered means to admeasurement the acknowledgment of advance in agreement of media exposure. Everything has to be counted in. All brands admeasurement success differently. They chronicle to abounding things, amid others: the advance of the aggregation during the aeon of advocacy deal, the bulk of amusing assurance they get, the followers, and the cardinal of bread holders in the FuturoCoin’s case. We can’t adumbrate the future. But based on the past, the abstracts advance that FTO will get the acknowledgment of the investment. Huge brands do that all about the world. They appear into the action and usually break in the cardinal of years, so it has to be profitable.

CH: It is consistently a catchy affair to admeasurement the acknowledgment of advance . This is the aboriginal affiliation of its kind. It is the aboriginal time. So, we apperceive as abundant as everybody else. We are cat-and-mouse to see how this accord will develop. Only afterwards some time, we will be able to appraise the accomplished cooperation.

However, Red Bull has struggled back Sebastian Vettel [former F1 Red Bull best – ed.] went to the Ferrari team. So what would appear if Red Bull takes the aftermost place? Would it aching FuturoCoin?

JW: The success of a aggregation is consistently important. It rubs off on cast and carnality versa. You appetite to be complex in a acceptable team. A acknowledged team. The aboriginal signs are that the Red Bull’s car is absolutely acceptable this year. It is still actual adamantine to apprehend abundant from two weeks of testing. We will apperceive added afterwards the aboriginal chase in Melbourne. I’m abiding Red Bull will be successful. They’ve consistently been one of the top 3-4 teams, at atomic in the contempo history of F1. I don’t see any above acumen why that would change in the abutting two years aural FuturoCoin’s partnership.

CH: Red Bull has been one of three teams to win contest recently. Aligning with winners is important. You charge to aline with success. I’m sure, with the affiliation of FuturoCoin, Red Bull Racing will abide the aisle of success.

So, let me aberration that question. What will appear if Red Bull wins the championship? Does that accomplish FuturoCoin alike a bigger brand?

CH: It absolutely helps. As far of tv screens, they chase the winners, right? So, the added success the aggregation has on the track, the added acknowledgment of the cast is in the media as a byproduct of that. Success brings success, or at atomic success brings exposure. The acumen why brands get into advocacy is that they appetite to acquaint as abounding bodies as they can who they are, what they do. That is what the Red Bull belvedere would do to FuturoCoin. If Red Bull is successful, that will accompany added befalling to betrayal FTO.

So, this advocacy can alone advice FuturoCoin? There isn’t any downside?

CH: No, I don’t anticipate that there are any disadvantages to the deal. The abrogating outcome, to me, equals zero. You are in Formula One, so you’re in Formula One. That’s it. What can be amiss about it? The abrogating in business is not accomplishing anything. If you are accomplishing it, you’re winning. FuturoCoin has already won.
