british athletics has received a huge funding cut which means that athletes will get less financial support from the national governing body a year ago this would have made me panic and i know many other athletes will be panicking too since building onchain / on farcaster i have made a little over what i earn in a YEAR of national olympic funding in 4 months whilst being able to train full-time🤯 this is a real life usecase!! in 2025 i am determined to bring more athletes onchain 🫡

an absolute disgrace, we have the same here in France. then we act all surprised when other countries that make sports a priority get better results (looking at you USA). i remember that in my sport, we didn't even have budget to get sent to world cups, so we could only do continental championships and never gained the xp we need to get really good… congrats for your determination and hard work! 86 $DEGEN

right!! its so frustrating. thanks for sharing! i worry about the next generation of athletes too🥲 they are so many people with talent but no resources to take it to the next level having financial support outside of just traditional sponsorship and national governing bodies will allow us to actually discover the greatest athletes! they are already starting to charge cross country athletes to compete too which is such a barrier. imagine there is a future world record holder right now who will quit because of lack of resources, i really believe onchain can help with this!! 💪🏾
