Lionel Messi’s transfer from FC Barcelona to Paris Saint Germain made global headlines this week, and the Argentine is set to receive a payment in cryptocurrency fan tokens as part of his "welcome package."
Crypto fan tokens are like other cryptocurrencies, but are instead issued by a sports franchise.
Tokens like PSG’s can be used as a means for fans to interact with their favourite clubs through online polls and by sharing inspirational messages on captain’s armbands.
Although no figures were disclosed, this is considered to be a milestone moment for football and its relationship with digital assets.
