[X] German Football Club Giant Bayern Munich Begin Offering Digital Blockchain Collectibles
Collecting football cards and digital collectibles is a massive financial sector in European Football. EA Sports, a financial giant in the sector, with over 45 million unique players playing football games on console and PC, is expected to earn close to 2 billion in revenue from 2 years of user spending.
Stryking, a fantasy sports platform has now begun to process its version of business to enter this money-making industry by teaming up with globally renowned team Bayern Munich.
The joint venture will see 18 different collectibles go on presale in an auction format, offering the most famous and exciting players in their squad.
The players can then be used in game-like scenarios where rewards and achievements can be won. Card owners are given digital ownership and can freely use and sell their property as they wish, either selling for profits, using in tournaments or other blockchain game scenarios.
This is not the first high profile game to attract attention with Formula 1 also getting involved with gaming and blockchain.
Bayern Munich is an extremely well-known brand in football, so this is yet another fantastic new player entering into the crypto markets. With other stars like Louis Figo and Ronaldinho joining, this could well help pave the way for more celebrities to get involved.
