Deontay Wilder signs with crypto sponsor ahead of bout

Yet another pugilist with an upcoming high-profile bout has been swept up in a crypto sponsorship façade. Deontay Wilder is set to advertise a relatively unknown cryptocurrency sponsor when he faces Tyson Fury this Saturday in Vegas.

Inflation Hedging Coin (IHC) is a new crypto coin developed by a group of Mongolian entrepreneurs. The coin was reportedly built to exploit the potential of blockchain to stave off the radical inflationary effects inherent in the oversupply of fiat currency in Mongolia.

However, the group have set their sights on America as IHC’s burn rate correlates with the US inflation rate. The coin carries a high transaction fee of 5% which is designed to encourage hodling and discourage sellers, a mechanism that helps strengthen the stability of the new ecosystem.
