Floyd Mayweather's ICO: is he gonna make it?

We all know Floyd Mayweather as the fastest boxer/runner on the ring. Now, he is trying to get rich quick through ICO participation.


On Thursday, the undefeated world champion took to Instagram to promote an initial coin offering by Stox, a blockchain prediction company. The ICO will take place on August 2. 

What is Stox exactly?


Stox (STX) is an open source, Ethereum based platform for prediction markets where people can trade the outcome of events in almost any imaginable category – sports, celebrity marriages, election results, and even the weather. The platform targets mainstream audiences and allows investors to leverage their knowledge and profit from prediction events

Stox is just one of many Ethereum-based ICOs. However, it got endorsed by Floyd. I wonder what Floyd knows that we don't know. Anyway, best of luck to him. He will need the money to pay off some $22.2 million liability to the IRS. What do you guys think will happen to the guy's fortune?

 

Quia cupiditate cumque sequi porro hic. Incidunt aut sed omnis cum neque esse atque. Omnis aperiam sit non et qui vel vero. Est molestiae eum perferendis doloribus minima ut enim et.

I'm talking about liquid. Rich enough to have your own jet. Rich enough not to waste time. Fifty, a hundred million dollars, buddy. A player. Or nothing. See my Blog & AMA
