Team Crypto: Alex Hobern

I am pleased to announce our third racer – Alex Hobern!

Alex Hobern, a TV/radio personality and content creator whose original comedy sketches bridge the gap between digital and television media. Having previously worked behind the scenes in digital marketing, Alex shot to fame after winning the innovative Channel 4 show “The Circle”… which he pulled off while pretending to be a woman called Kate.

With no prior knowledge of Cryptocurrency and once being caught asking ‘WTF is Crypto’, Alex is about to embark on a journey of enlightenment as he attempts to become the first person to travel around the world using only Crypto as a payment. With his history of winning, we will see if he has what it takes to get to the finish line first.

This year, Alex will be the Racer for Team Crypto!
