That's a first in football I believe?
A Serie C club (Rimini), Italian 3rd league, will have 25% of its shares sold in the form of a cryptocurrency transaction, following partnership with Quantocoin. Never heard about this Quantacoin before but a look on their website
https://quantocoin.io and it looks quite promising.
Not the first actually. There are already facts about selling tickets (for crypto) to the football matches with help of blockchain and some other examples around football especially.
It looks mostly not like something good for crypto community but rather for a 3rd league football team as it will bring more attention to them because of crypto hype.
Yes, this is not the first time it has happened, there are many countries and companies out there that sell tickets for football matches with crypto currencies, but this news is also quite good and useful so we know that some Italian companies and communities have supported crypto currencies
