Helsinki, December 21, 2021 — Finland’s leading Cryptocurrency platform Coinmotion and Espoo-based floorball team Westend Indians are proud to announce a partnership. The cooperation kicked off when Aaro Astala, floorball player at Westend Indians, reached out to Coinmotion with a suggestion to cooperate. Astala has been a happy user of Coinmotion and wanted his professional and personal interests to find a synergy.
Thanks to Astala’s initiative, Coinmotion and Westend Indians agreed to start a year-long partnership spreading awareness of a secure Finnish cryptocurrency platform among Espoo floorball fans.
As public events are coming back into the everyday lives of Finns, floorball viewers will notice Coinmotion advertisements at the stadiums and rinks. The two organizations will spread educational cryptocurrency information as well as a unique perk for the fans. In addition, two gold-level athletes, Aaro Astala and Otto Lehkosuo will be promoting the special offer for fans in their social media accounts.
Customers and global trends direct Coinmotion’s development
Aaro Astala says:
“I first heard about cryptocurrencies from a good friend of mine, after which I started to explore the subject more in-depth. I quickly realized that cryptocurrencies, especially decentralized blockchain technology, would be one of the major revolutions in the future. In my opinion, in today’s world, a well-diversified portfolio should have some market exposure to cryptocurrencies.’
“From my first investments in cryptocurrency to this date, I’ve always used the services provided by Coinmotion because I think it’s the most reliable Finnish service provider that has a very user-friendly platform with great features,” Astala adds.
Heidi Hurskainen, CEO at Coinmotion, says:
“It’s exciting for us to partner up with an organization such as Westend Indians, with whom we bring the global trend of crypto and traditional sports to our home market. The worldwide trend of crypto and traditional sports comes together in the form of partnerships and fan token issuances. We are happy to ride this wave and onboard Finns interested in cryptocurrencies.”
Mika Leiponen, CEO of Westend Indians, says:
“Westend Indians is pleased to enter into a partnership with Coinmotion. The goals of our club community are ambitious, and together with Coinmotion, we will take another step forward. We believe our cooperation will be rewarding for both parties, and it will be great to write a shared story.”
