Crypto.com 贊助攤牌，以 CRO 加密貨幣支付競爭對手

在 12 月名為 The Showdown（而非 The Match）的表演賽中，斯科蒂·舍夫勒和羅裡·麥克羅伊將聯手對抗布萊森·德尚博和布魯克斯·科普卡

Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy will team up to take on Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka in The December exhibition match dubbed The Showdown (not The Match) in a PGA Tour vs. LIV Golf contest in Las Vegas.

斯科蒂·舍弗勒和羅裡·麥克羅伊將在12 月拉斯維加斯PGA 巡迴賽與LIV 高爾夫比賽中的表演賽（稱為“攤牌”）中與布萊森·德尚博和布魯克斯·科普卡聯手對抗布萊森·德尚博和布魯克斯·科普卡。

The December 17 match will unfold at Shadow Creek, and the four players will reportedly be playing for a $10 million purse. However, that purse is truly unique to golf thanks to the event's title sponsor.

12 月 17 日的比賽將在 Shadow Creek 舉行，據報道，四名選手的獎金將達到 1000 萬美元。然而，由於賽事的冠名贊助商，這個錢包對於高爾夫來說確實是獨一無二的。

Crypto.com has paid to sponsor the event, and the competitors will be paid from a purse that is the United States dollar equivalent of Crypto.com's Cronos (CRO) coin, a form of cryptocurrency.

Crypto.com 已支付贊助活動的費用，參賽者將透過與 Crypto.com 的 CRO) 硬幣（一種加密貨幣）等值的美元等值的錢包獲得報酬。

“Crypto.com’s mission is to accelerate the world’s transition to cryptocurrency and today’s announcement is our latest effort by introducing the world’s first major golf tournament with a purse in CRO cryptocurrency,” said Kris Marzalek, CEO of Crypto.com, in a release.

Crypto.com 執行長Kris Marzalek 在新聞稿中表示：「Crypto.com 的使命是加速世界向加密貨幣的過渡，今天的公告是我們的最新努力，推出了世界上第一個使用CRO 加密貨幣錢包的大型高爾夫錦標賽。

“The Showdown has been about innovation from the beginning and our commitment to delivering the best entertainment possible for the fans by uniting our sport,” said DeChambeau. “It is exciting to have Crypto.com now on board to provide a true first with a crypto currency-based prize purse.”

「決戰從一開始就注重創新，我們致力於透過團結我們的運動為球迷提供最好的娛樂，」德尚博說。 “很高興 Crypto.com 現在加入，提供真正的第一個基於加密貨幣的獎品錢包。”

In the last 52 weeks, CRO has seen dramatic moves, as is common in much of the cryptocurrency marketplace. While Bitcoin has seen a massive rise to nearly $100,000, CRO has recently more than doubled in price from a low of $0.07 on November 5 to a current price of slightly more than $0.18. The CRO market cap is $4.9 billion.

在過去 52 週內，CRO 發生了巨大的變化，這在許多加密貨幣市場中都很常見。儘管比特幣已大幅上漲至近 10 萬美元，但 CRO 的價格最近已翻了一倍多，從 11 月 5 日的低點 0.07 美元上漲至目前略高於 0.18 美元的價格。 CRO 市值為 49 億美元。

Several professional athletes have sought to be paid in their favored cryptocurrency, and other events in different sports have featured all-crypto prize funds. For golf, though, this is a first.

一些職業運動員尋求用他們喜歡的加密貨幣獲得報酬，不同運動項目的其他賽事也採用了全加密貨幣獎金。然而，對於高爾夫來說，這是第一次。
