Football Takeover? Solana-Based Token Skyrockets 350% Following Messi and Ronaldinhos Promotion

On Monday, professional football player Lionel Messi promoted a Solana-based memecoin to his 504 million Instagram followers. The Argentine player shared a link to Watercoin (WATER), propelling the token by 350%. The crypto community has expressed concern about Messis endorsement of the project. Related Reading: Can Solana Hit $160? SOLs Resilience Sparks Rally Optimism Global Football Stars Promote WATER Lionel Messi, one of the best players in football history, promoted a Solana project named Watercoin. The football players Instagram account shared an image of Messi with the projects logo and a link to its Instagram page. Following the post, the memecoin surged over 350%, going from $0.00032 to $0.0015 in a few hours. WATERs market capitalization rose by 325%, surpassing the $100 million mark. Quickly, users expressed their concerns and doubts about the posts. Many speculated that Messi was a new victim of hackers who have restlessly targeted public figures social media accounts in this cycle. Nonetheless, Messis Instagram story has not been deleted as of this writing, and no official report of a hack has been made public, suggesting that the post was authorized. Additionally, several uses pointed out the football players previous endorsement of crypto projects. In February, the Inter Miami player announced his partnership with the Real-World Assets (RWA) tokenization platform. At the time, the platforms token PLANET saw high volatility after soaring by 1,500%. Moreover, the legitimacy of Messis promotion seems to be confirmed on Tuesday morning. Earlier today, retired Brazilian sensation Ronaldinho promoted WATER on his Instagram account. The post has the same format as his former teammates story, with a picture of the football player and WATERs logo. Is WATER Another Solana-Based Scam? Regardless of the posts legitimacy, the crypto community remains concerned about the project. Many users pointed out that the team behind Watercoin is the same team responsible for another Solana-based memecoin, Beercoin (BEER). As reported by NewsBTC, BEER crashed down last month after whales started selling large sums of the token. Seemingly, team-related wallets started cashing out, which plummeted the price and fueled deep concerns about the project. Since then, BEER has seen a 95% price decline. Like Beercoin, WATER is surrounded by insider trading concerns. Crypto analytics firm Bubblemaps urged users to remain vigilant of the Solana token. Per the post, insiders control 30% of WATERs total supply. It is worth noting that WATER raised over $40 million in presale and reached a $1 billion market cap after launching last month. However, the token seemingly experienced significant insider activity, which plummeted the tokens valuation by 97%. Related Reading: Notcoin Rises 80% Over The Weekend, Is A NOT Explosion Coming? Despite this, some market watchers believe WATER is starting to look solid based on its current trading activity. VikingXBT suggested that the token could double its price if it successfully flips the $0.0011 resistance level. At the time of writing, WATER trades at $0.00095, a 198% increase in the last 24 hours. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

OKX, Man City Sign $70M Deal after Shaking Off Club’s FTX-Related Fears

OKX has expanded its deal with Manchester City through a new three-year agreement that makes it the popular English football club’s Official Sleeve Partner. The new deal is worth $70 million, the Seychelles-based cryptocurrency exchange told CoinDesk today (Friday).

OKX Passes Man City’s ‘Litmus Test’

OKX launched its first official global brand partnership with Man City in March 2022. Months later, it became the club’s official training kit partner for the 2022/2023 season.

The new deal unveiled on Friday at the Etihad Stadium in England builds on these previous partnerships. The agreement avails OKX of a bigger opportunity for brand positioning.

“As part of the expanded deal, the OKX brand will feature on the left sleeve of both the men's and women's first team playing kits and will retain its position on the left sleeve of the first team training kits, in addition to appearing across further digital and physical club assets,” OKX explained in a statement.

Beyond Man City, OKX’s portfolio of brand partnerships includes the British motor racing team, McLaren Formula 1 and F1 Driver, Daniel Ricciardo, Olympian Scotty James, and film promoter the Tribeca Festival. However, OKX told CoinDesk it passed Man City’s “litmus test” before the new agreement scaled through.

Sports Sponsorship Nightmare in Crypto Industry

In 2021, FTX and Crypto.com splashed over $1 billion on sports sponsorships, with the latter securing the right to sponsor the Ultimate Fighting Championship for 10 years through a $175 million deal. However, the collapse of FTX in November 2022 left several of the bankrupt crypto exchange’s sports partners and celebrity endorsers contending with multiple lawsuits, Finance Magnates reported.

In an interview with CoinDesk on Friday, OKX disclosed that its sports partners expressed worry about its business in light of the situation at FTX. However, Haider Rafique, the Chief Marketing Officer of OKX, said the exchange’s proof of reserves (PoR) convinced the sports collaborators otherwise. He added that partners such as Man City and McLaren Formula 1 even audited its PoR.

A PoR is an independent third-party audit to confirm that a digital asset custodian actually holds the assets it claims to have accumulated in its reserves to secure customer deposits.
