Mixed martial artist Francis Ngannou will be taking half his purse for UFC 270 in the form of Bitcoin, according to his Twitter post yesterday. In addition to getting paid in BTC, Ngannou is also planning to give away $300,000 worth of the flagship cryptocurrency to his fans via Cash App. I believe bitcoin can empower people everywhere. So I’m excited to partner w/ @CashApp to take half my #UFC270 purse in bitcoin. I want to make bitcoin more accessible to my fans, so I’m giving out $300K in bitcoin! Follow @CashApp + drop your $cashtag w/ #PaidInBitcoin pic.twitter.com/8JEvJ1UYu1 — Francis Ngannou (@francis_ngannou) January 18, 2022 Jack Dorsey’s Cash App has formed similar partnerships with several NFL players, including Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, while allowing them to receive their salary in Bitcoin. Prior to his latest announcement, Ngannou had earlier tweeted that bitcoin is big in Africa: “I’ve been talking with my family and friends in the crypto space. Bitcoin is huge in Africa and I’m thinking of taking half my fight purse in it, Bitcoin is the future and I’m a believer.” Ngannou earned a reported £400,000 for his title win against Stipe Miocic last year, meaning he could earn in six figures worth of bitcoin if he decides to convert his UFC 270 purse. The MMA fighter will take on ‘Bon Gamin’ Ciryl Gane on January 23 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, and is set to earn a guaranteed $750,000. Ngannou is not the first professional MMA fighter to receive earnings in Bitcoin. In Dec. 2021, American MMA fighter Kevin Lee said that the Russia-based Eagle Fighting Championship will pay him in Bitcoin. UFC has formed a partnership deal with Crypto.com to become its official cryptocurrency partner. Furthermore, the MMA company even launched a non-fungible token (NFT) collection to celebrate UFC 268: Usman vs. Covington 2. Beyond crypto.com, Coinbase and FTX have signed up numerous team sponsorships and endorsement deals to target mainstream users. In fact, FTX brought Tom Brady as a ‘brand ambassador’ along with MLB slugger Shohei Ohtani and NBA sharpshooter Steph Curry.

Ubisoft is preparing to reveal a new For Honor hero this week. The latest fighter to join the game’s ever-growing roster will be unveiled during an upcoming Warrior’s Den stream. This stream can be caught over on Twitch at 5PM GMT, January 20, 2022, and should give us an in-depth look at the hero’s design, lore, weapon, and moveset. Ubisoft has confirmed that this latest addition to For Honor will arrive a week later on January 27, 2022, as we close out Year 5 Season 4. What do we know about this new hero? The teaser video doesn’t give us a clear look, though they appear to be wielding a short sword – maybe a cutlass? There definitely seems to be a pirate theme to the new season as hinted at in the latest lore entry: The people of Heathmoor were afflicted with rising waters and a devastating storm that flooded the landscape. Thankfully, the storm passed, and though the skies began to clear, a cold winter settled in. The high waters froze, and snow covered the terrain. Ships were stuck in the ice, which only added to the odd serenity that had befallen Heathmoor. After so many hardships, so many battles and natural catastrophes, the people took this small respite as an opportunity to reconnect. After being separated for so long, friends and families were reunited once again, and everyone took the time to count their blessings, and celebrate. But amid the festivities, something unforeseen came from the frozen sea. A large ship with red sails reached the harbor, the herald of uncertainty – and intrigue. Naturally, fans of the fighting game are already asking what comes next. For Honor is fast approaching its fifth birthday which raises questions as to whether we can expect a Year 6 roadmap loaded with fresh content. The arrival of new heroes, maps, and modes has slowed over time. 2021 brought us the Kyoshin whereas 2020 saw Apollyon, and the wandering mercenary, Gryphon, make their debut. That said, the team at Ubisoft Montreal have been tirelessly looking to tweak and rebalance its sizeable cast of fighters, each with their own unique fighting styles. Hopefully the upcoming stream will give us a tiny glimpse of what to expect throughout the year.

The Kingdom Hearts cloud-streaming versions are set to launch for the Nintendo Switch on Feb. 10, with each game carrying a pretty hefty price tag.
