Our Story

MORE THAN ARACE TEAM

We're building the future of motorsport, powered by Bitcoin. The only nonprofit Bitcoin race team in America.

The Beginning
“The Bitcoin community deserved real representation in motorsport—not just a logo, but a team built on the same principles.”

Bitcoin Racing was founded with a simple thesis: the values that drive the Bitcoin movement—decentralization, transparency, community ownership—align perfectly with grassroots motorsport.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we're not here to extract value from the community. We're here to create pathways. For young racers who thought professional motorsport was out of reach. For Bitcoin enthusiasts who want their community represented on the track. For everyone who believes in building something bigger than themselves.

Every race, every lap, every student we train brings us closer to that vision: a motorsport ecosystem powered by the Bitcoin community, for the Bitcoin community.

Our Mission

THREE PILLARS

Bitcoin Adoption

Mainstream visibility through professional motorsport. Every race is an opportunity to showcase Bitcoin to a new audience—not through preaching, but through excellence.

Community Building

Creating touchpoints for Bitcoiners to connect beyond Twitter and conferences. Track days, watch parties, community events—real experiences with real people.

Racing Excellence

Developing the next generation of racing talent through the Collegiate Racing Series partnership. From sim racing to professional competition, we build complete drivers.

What is CRS?

The Collegiate Racing Series is America's first racing series designed specifically for students aged 12-25. It combines classroom curriculum with real track competition.

The Curriculum

Students learn race craft, car control, safety protocols, team management, and even fundraising—everything needed to succeed in professional motorsport.

Sim-to-Track

Through our iRacing partnership, students build skills in professional simulation before transitioning to real track time. Lower cost, lower risk, better prepared.

The Goal

Competition licenses, professional experience, and the foundation for a racing career—all supported by the Bitcoin community.
