28 Jan PSG join Arsenal with cryptocurrency deal that lets fans take part in club decisions
[ad_1]
Paris Saint-Germain have signed a new cryptocurrency deal that will allow more than 78 million fans to take part in major club decisions.
It comes after Arsenal launched a similar partnership with US cryptocurrency CashBet in 2018, allowing fans to use and redeem coins at the 60,000-seat Emirates stadium.
In a statement on Twitter, the club said 20 million virtual ‘coins’ worth £1.69 each have been put up for sale online.
Fans can collect them in a Pokemon Go-like system and use the credits to pick next season’s shirts or meet their favourite players.
The news comes 16 months after the French club signed a deal with the Maltese company Chiliz that runs the blockchain platform called Socios.com.
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) made the announcement of the launch of the cryptocurrency blockchain tokens on Twitter and accompanied their post with a video advertising the new product.
