Tony Hawk, the most famous skateboarder in history, has been a Bitcoin holder since 2012 and one of the earliest celebrity adopters. He sees strong parallels between the counterculture origins of skateboarding and Bitcoin, and has used his platform to normalize Bitcoin adoption for a mainstream audience.
