Spencer Dinwiddie’s Career in the National Team

In all eight games, he was one of three Team USA players. Spencer led Team USA with 44 assists (5.5 APG) and 12 steals per game while averaging 7.9 points and 2.6 rebounds (1.5 SPG).

Bitcoin and “Human Tokenization”

Dinwiddie introduced cryptocurrency to the NBA with the launch of his DREAM Fan Shares, which allowed accredited investors to invest in Dinwiddie’s three-year, $34 million guaranteed contract using digital tokens.

He intended to raise $13.5 million by selling ninety “SD8” tokens for $150,000 each.

The NBA was strongly opposed when he first announced it in September 2019; he was still negotiating with the NBA in January 2020.

The initial stances included threatening Dinwiddie with expulsion from the league, citing language in Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) Article 2.13 (d) (prohibiting athletes from transferring their right to a third party.)

However, the project only raised $1.35 million in tokens, accounting for 10% of his initial goal.

Dinwiddie later realized that because crypto tokens often represent something amorphous, they do not need to be backed by his contract. So he embarked on his new endeavor, “The Creator’s Galaxy.”
