Bitcoin and the world of MMA? It turns out that such an unexpected misalliance is taking place. UFC star Renato “Money” Moicano used his post-fight speech at UFC 300 to draw attention to BTC and Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises. The fan's appeal received an extremely positive response from his fans.

Own podcast with Joe Rogan as a guest
The Brazilian fighter's appeal turned out to be very successful, as at least 26,000 free PDFs from Amazon have been downloaded since Sunday's fight. Some fans also write on the X website that all of Mises's books have been sold out in their local bookstores. During his “Money” appearance on Sunday, Moicano announced that he would be recording his own podcast, to which he had already invited Joe Rogan. The fighter received a bonus for ending the fight in the amount of USD 300,000 in BTC.
In an interview on Monday's “The MMA Hour” by Ariel Helwani, the UFC fighter said “I love Bitcoin, I love decentralization.” Moreover, since he has been interested in Bitcoin and economics, he has stopped keeping his savings in fiat currency for fear of inflation.
