The Kings announced Thursday that fans will be able to buy gear from the official team store and pay for tickets with the digital money beginning March 1. Purchases will be processed through BitPay, which accepts the digital dollars and pays the Kings in cash. Kings owner Vivek Ranadive said the new payment method is part of his model for ‘NBA 3.0, which focuses on investments in technology, globalization and deep community partnerships.'”
