Manchester United is one of the most well known Football (soccer) clubs in the World. They now have arguably the best player in Cristiano Ronaldo on the team, which will bring massive interest in the club, its games, and its merchandise. Manchester United recently announced that they have partnered with Tezos, a decentralized open-source blockchain that can execute peer-to-peer transactions and serve as a platform for deploying smart contracts. The club released a statement about the use of Tezos:
"Throughout its history, Manchester United has constantly evolved, with the support of its huge and diverse global community of fans and partners. Tezos will enable Manchester United to use blockchain and Web3 to transform fan, player, team, and partner engagement. The decision by the world’s greatest football club to select Tezos as its blockchain of choice is further validation that thoughtful design paired with strong security, low gas fees, and community-led innovation are the essential factors driving the next wave of adoption in the new digital revolution".
The Tezos "TEZ Coin uses the symbol XTZ and will be used to purchase goods at the stadium such as food, Jerseys, souvenirs, and word has it, NFT's of players and moments from games. You will also be able to buy tickets to matches with this coin in the near future. As of right now, Tezos is at 2.91 USD with a 3 month high of 5.67 USD. The high was BEFORE Tezos partnered with Manchester United, and it will only increase in value as the season moves forward and and the coin is more widely adopted in transactions with the club.
I propose buying 1.5 ETH worth of XTZ coin As soon as possible while the price is below 3.00 USD, and holding until the end of the season in the English Premier League, which is May 22nd.
There is no doubt in my mind that the increased use of the coin in Manchester United's stadiums will increase the value of the coin far beyond its previous high. I am not a Manchester United fan (Im a SCC. Napoli Guy) so I am not emotionally invested in this, but there is money to be made here. The sky is the limit for this partnership and it is in our best interest to cash in.
