我讨厌 WNBA 将他们愚蠢的赞助加密聊天框定为女性赋权。
一位 Twitter 用户在回复西雅图风暴时引用了对加密货币的环境问题团队的推文 ：“对于一支主场实际上被称为气候承诺竞技场的球队来说，这感觉有点恶心。”然而，Sue Bird 自己却收到了一位粉丝的回复，称“加密货币不好，因为它‘剥削了女性的运动和野生动物’。”
一些喜欢加密货币的人对这种伙伴关系嗤之以鼻。一位网友在 Twitter 上写道：“评论中的那些家伙告诉加密货币公司，他们对女性运动太好了，你们都在把我推向酗酒。”另一个人称这种合作伙伴关系是“加密货币专家的完美交集，他们讨厌这个，因为他们不喜欢 WNBA，而 WNBA 球迷不喜欢这个，因为它是加密货币。”
加密促销或赞助多次受到批评。一个NBA球迷说,
加密货币正在崩溃，体育联盟 [are] 仍然依附于他们，希望他们能预付所有的钱
