The upcoming soccer “holiday” appears to have uplifted the ongoing misery in the crypto market due to the ongoing FTX turmoil. The soccer fan tokens of several national teams are showing incredibly strong price movement just two days before the FIFA World Cup 2022, which will be contested this winter in Qatar.
Nation Fan Tokens Leading The Charge
In the last seven days, the prices for ARG (Argentina) and POR (Portugal) rose by 31% and 43%, respectively, with most of this growth coming in the past 24 hours alone. The reason behind it is pretty simple, as soccer legends Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo play for these national teams.
Tokens of other nations like Brazil, Germany, France and Italy are also showing strong price action and are expected to rise more as the FIFA World Cup 2022 inches closer.

Chiliz, the platform used to issue the majority of soccer-related tokens is also experiencing positive price movement for its CHZ token. In the months leading up to the World Cup, it has made it to the top 100 most profitable cryptocurrencies.
NFT Craze Surrounds FIFA World Cup 2022
As reported earlier by CoinGape, Visa had announced the release of a collection of “one-of-a-kind digital collectibles” featuring famous goals from five iconic football players. The official sponsor of FIFA’s cryptocurrency trading platform, Crypto.com, has now started offering the Visa Masters of Movement NFTs on their platform.
The winning bidders for each NFT will win a signed piece of memorabilia from the featured legendary players in addition to the token in their Crypto.com wallet.
Additionally, Visa said that “Street Child United”, a U.K. based charity, will receive 100% of the auction’s revenues.
