According to a report, the Polkadot blockchain network has sent in its proposal requesting to be the official Jersey Sponsor for the Spanish football club Barça. although, the club’s goal is to reach 75 million euros for the sponsorship.
Rakuten and Beko will no longer be sponsors of FC Barcelona’s T-shirts as of July 1st. As a result, the Barcelona squad must finalize an agreement that will allow them to begin the new season with other sponsors.
With the prior marks, the Barça T-shirt became the most valuable. It is estimated that the new agreement will bring in 75 million euros in total revenue for the club.
According to ‘Sport,’ there are various bids for the main sponsorship of the T-shirt, and the announcement might be made in a short period of time.
In recent days, signatures such as Spotify and Vegan Nations have been heard. However, the club has decided to proceed with caution, analyzing each proposal in detail in order to establish the most beneficial long-term agreement.
“The club has decided to take things with patience to analyze in-depth each proposal in procures to reach the most profitable agreement on a long-term basis.”
Polkadot, a blockchain network that was founded in 2016 but gained traction last year, is one of the alternatives, according to a recent release. The protocol, according to FC Barcelona, is a platform that allows for a “large number of transactions per second.”
The project can perform 1,000 TPS in particular. It is anticipated to grow to 1,000,000 people once it is fully operational.
FC Barcelona is no stranger to the world of digital assets. The club announced a global agreement with NFT marketplace Ownix a few months ago to create a non-fungible collection for its followers. After Moshe Hogeg (who is linked to Ownix) was arrested for multiple offenses including fraud and sexual assault, the club canceled the arrangement.
