Bitcoin access dilemma for NBA star Kevin Durant: Agent finds delight in his inability to unlock Coinbase account.

In the world of sports and finance, NBA superstar Kevin Durant's investment journey in Bitcoin has been making headlines. Durant, who will be playing for the Houston Rockets in the upcoming NBA season, shared that he started investing in Bitcoin back in 2016. This move was inspired by a dinner conversation with his teammates, where cryptocurrency was a frequent topic. His Coinbase account, which holds the Bitcoin he purchased, has been a source of interest. However, the exact amount of Bitcoin Durant bought was not specified by his agent, Rich Kleiman. Kleiman made these comments at CNBC's Game Plan conference in Los Angeles, stating that Durant's inability to access his Coinbase account has 'only benefited' him due to the rise in Bitcoin price. Durant and Kleiman jointly own the company 35V, which they refer to as a valuable partner in realizing their Bitcoin investments. This partnership could potentially lead to more significant Bitcoin-related ventures in the future. It's worth noting that Durant is not new to representing the USA. He was a member of the U.S. Olympic team, demonstrating his commitment to excellence beyond the basketball court. Meanwhile, in a separate sports news, Clayton Kershaw, a Dodgers pitcher, announced his retirement after this MLB season. Kershaw's departure marks the end of an era for the Dodgers and Major League Baseball. As Durant continues to make strides in his basketball career and Bitcoin investments, fans and investors alike will be watching his journey with keen interest.
