ANDhe objective was clear: to win football shirts -and very nice ones-. The clearest obstacle, even if possible, is being the one who knows the most about football with the fun and demanding quizzes answered by the attendees at the Lionel Messi Challenge by Socios.com, the platform that creates fan tokens, at MARCA Sport Weekend in Malaga. The event brought together a hundred people to win and demonstrate that technology, sports and ‘fan tokens‘ are an increasingly established reality in the 21st century.
Winning was not just any challenge, since the well-known youtuber Carles Santaló, better known as ‘Kolderiu’, and the sports journalist Miguel Quintana, entertainers, but also rivals in the search for tremendous prizes, were also present. Free, just by downloading the Socios.com app to access some questions that even sparked piques. Because no, not everyone knew Messi’s titles or the star’s favorite rival from Rosario.
The Challenge even unleashed a rivalry between Kolderiu and Quintana as well, as they saw how the Radio MARCA journalist came from behind in his duel against Kolderiu to win a shirt signed by the Paris-Saint Germain squad.
Another luscious prize up for grabs was the special t-shirt that the Valencia launched this course that explains the new reality that Socios.com transmits: football -and sport- for everyone, more and more.. Because the holders of ‘fan tokens’ of the ché team were able to choose which design that shirt would incorporate. It was a symbol of infinity, which showed that love for the club.
The connection of fans with their favorite clubs, which with technology created from ‘blockchain’, it is one of the hallmarks of Socios.com, such as being able to choose which tune plays in the stadium when there is a goal or the design of your team’s jerseys. And those who crowded into Malaga saw it first-hand by winning shirts just by clicking ‘download’. VIP experiences are one of the hallmarks of Socios.com, allowing fan token owners to experience unique and spectacular actions related to their team.
MARCA Sport Weekend approached as well as a new giant like Socios.com is a reality of sport as it is understood. A more participatory sport, with increasingly global fans eager to add prizes. In the Plaza de la Constitución in Málaga there were LaLiga shirts and balls, but other Socios.com users have enjoyed this year the experience of playing in the stadium of their dreams, such as the Camp Nou or the Metropolitan Wanda.
