JOIN THE AVAI TOKEN CROWDSALE AND BECOME A PART OF FOOTBALL HISTORY!
Avaí FC will write history this summer – as the first professional football club using blockchain technology to achieve our next goal: playing again in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A and qualifying for the Copa Libertadores !

CROWDSALE STARTS ON OCTOBER 3 AT 12:00 UTC

I don't know how this project works, can anyone give me an explanation more easily, because I just heard of a project like this, thanks hope that it's the best for you.

I also see this similar news on this media: https://bcfocus.com/news/brazilian-football-club-to-initiate-an-ico-of-20-million/22970/

The club has partnered itself with blockchain technology specialists SportyCo and soccer investment specialist Blackbridge Sports. The Avaí FC token will initiate sales on October 3 for a month. The price of the token will be $1.

The reason for this token offering is to provide a digital ecosystem for its fans, to help them qualify for Series A, which is the topmost tier and also to build up its physical infrastructure.

“With our ICO, we are actively targeting a global football fan base, while engaging all Avaí FC in Florianópolis and Brazil, working together towards our goal – to become a stable member of Brazil’s Série A and qualify for the Copa Libertadores. We are delighted to do so in partnership with SportyCo and be the first sports company to do an initial coin offering, paving the way for other clubs all over the world to approach financing their sporting activities in this novel way,” said Francisco José Battistotti, President, Avaí Futebol Clube

Just days after French soccer giant Paris Saint-Germain football club (PSG) announced its own cryptocurrency, complete with an initial coin offering (ICO), Brazil’s Avaí Football Club has come up with a similar plan.

Announced Wednesday, Avaí FC has partnered with blockchain-based sports investment ecosystem SportyCo and football investment platform Blackbridge Sports to raise funds worldwide through the ICO, aiming to raise $20 million in the sale.

According to the official news release, the coin, dubbed Avaí FC Token, is said to be available for sale in October, with the ICO ending in early November. Football fans can be a part of this ICO vision, which aims to bridge the gap between the new fintech industry and sports using blockchain technology, the release added.

The president of Avaí, Francisco José Battistotti, stressed that the ICO would help the football club in broadening the global football fan base. With this vision, he said that Avaí would be a stable member of the Brazilian Series A Championship and reach the Copa Libertadores. He added:

“We are very happy to do so in partnership with SportyCo for being the first sports company to make an initial money offer, paving the way for other clubs around the world to provide funding for their sporting activities in this new way. “

Avaí FC will receive blockchain technology from its official partners SportyCo and Blackbridge Sports. Each token will be priced $1 with the sale period lasting for a month, a report stated. The token will then be listed on various cryptocurrency exchanges, making it easy for fans to trade.

According to the club, if the trading value of the token drops, it “will always provide a valuable experience or service for token holders wishing to participate.” If the tokens sold do not go beyond $8 million threshold, the funds will be returned to buyers, and, if the tokens sold reach more than $8 million while less the target of $20 million, the rest of the tokens will not be available for sale, the report added.

“Money raised from the crowdsale will go straight into club infrastructure which will stay with the club forever,” Marko Filej, SportyCo’s co-founder, said. He further said:

“With this initial money offer we are opening a new chapter in football and the sports industry in general.”

The launch event that took place at the Ressacada Stadium Auditorium in Brazil, attended by President Francisco José Battistotti and members of the board and councils of the club, representatives from the Brazilian Association of Cryptomoedas and Blockchain, and other guests.

 AVAITokenStore
AVAI oken Store is an online, blockchain based store where merchandize will be available for purchase in exchange for AVAI Tokens, with special discounts that will be set on case to case basis.
In addition to the direct sale of merchandize within the AVAI Token Store for special discounts, the AVAI Token Store will also include auction-based models for the sale of special merchandize available within the AVAITokenStore alone.
AVAI Tokens will be thus redeemable/exchangeable for merchandize that is being sold and will be sold by Avaí in the future, applying special discounts that will be available only within the AVAI Token Store.


when Token store?

They have snapchat hahaha how cool is that. Never seen an ico have a snapchat you can see their trainings and other stuff live. Even better to be in touch. Didn't know that sportyco is a sponsor for Avai.

Yes. I see once Avai FC has announced for this football club is going to raise money in crypto several others are talking about it. I have seen fc from london also talking about starting an ico for the club. This is spredaing quickly.

Fun times on Snapchat

Token usage is most important!


 AVAI Ecosystem and AVAITokenUsage
The ultimate goal of Avaí is the total modernization of its utilities. With almost 100 years of club history, Avaí intends to be the rst football club in the world to entertain the power of blockchain technology – thus being a leader in the advancements of technologies of the future. Avaí’s Ecosystem will be fully based on blockchain technology and will be divided into three main pillars, I) AVAI Token Store, ii) AVAI Token Tickets and iii) AVAI Token Special Experience (additional segments might be added subsequently).
The Avaí Ecosystem is an integrated whole Platform that will offer AVAI Token holders special discounts on merchandize, as well as seasonal and individual match tickets. Additionally, the Platform will give access of the AVAI Token holders to special packages (special experiences), that will only be available for AVAI Token holders.

 Great idea and hardworking team. This is the best project i have ever seen in my crypto life
