300M in 24 hours: PSG and Juventus lead sports crypto charge
Yesterday marked a new dawn for crypto in sports as the leading forces in Italian and French football have listed digital assets on three of the world’s biggest cryptocurrency exchanges in partnership with the leading fintech blockchain company Chiliz driving 24 hour trading volumes of $300M.
The digital assets, known as Fan Tokens, for Paris Saint-Germain ($PSG) and Juventus ($JUV) listed on the world’s leading exchange Binance at 07:00 CET, before trading began on major Turkish exchange Paribu at 10:00 CET and top Korean exchange Upbit at 13:00 CET.
At the time of writing the 24 hour volume for $JUV stands at $150M USD, with $PSG at $121M.
The $PSG market cap now stands at $51M. $JUV is at $46M. $PSG price rose by 198% in 24 hours to €32.75, more than 16X the launch price of €2. $JUV rose by 113% to €28, a fourteen-fold increase on the launch price of €2.
$JUV and $PSG are now second and fourth in the list of top performing tokens globally as shown by the leading cryptocurrency data authority. Details on the evolution of $PSG and $JUV since launch can be found here: PSG CoinMarketCap and JUV CoinMarketCap.
The club listings are a result of strategic partnerships with Chiliz, a fintech blockchain company that provides some of the biggest sporting properties in the world with engagement and monetization opportunities through Fan Tokens on the fan influence and rewards app Socios.com.
Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus will be the first of many leading sporting organisations to have their digital assets listed on major exchanges. 18 more leading sporting organisations have partnered with Chiliz to date, including soccer clubs FC Barcelona, Atlético de Madrid, AS Roma, Galatasaray, Trabzonspor, Istanbul Başakşehir and Esports organisations Heretics, NAVI, Alliance and OG. Chiliz have also struck up agreements with the UFC and fellow MMA outfit the Professional Fighters League (PFL). Dozens more top-tier organisations and IPs from sports and entertainment are poised to join the roster of Chiliz partners in the near future. The combined total market cap for all Fan Tokens has now reached $151M. Total 24 hour volume for all Fan Tokens is $300M.
Powered by the utility token $CHZ, Socios.com is one of the most active non-financial, consumer-facing mainstream blockchain products in the world. In just over a year it has been downloaded by more than 370,000 people, over 14m Fan Tokens have been sold, and over 700,000 votes registered on the blockchain. FC Barcelona’s ($BAR) Fan Token Offering sold out in 20 minutes, generating $1.3m, whilst Turkish team Trabzonspor’s FTO generated 5 million TRY in less than 5 minutes.
Alexandre Dreyfus, CEO & Founder of Chiliz and Socios.com said: “We have just taken a major step forward in our vision to tokenize the sports and entertainment industry over the next 5–7 years.
“This is a seminal moment for us, the start of a new trend where the world’s leading sporting organisations will have their proprietary digital assets listed on the biggest global exchanges, generating visibility, liquidity and volume. This new trend will gather pace as more of the world’s biggest sporting properties have their Fan Tokens listed in the near future.
“We will be adding many more partners from sports and entertainment in the years to come who will become part of this digital transformation and our wider global fan engagement and monetization ecosystem.”

BC Engine
BC.GAME launches BC Engine, introducing continuous rewards model powered by $BC
Global crypto gaming platform BC.GAME has introduced BC Engine, a new rewards system designed to provide players with ongoing value from their gameplay, without minimum thresholds or tier requirements.
Inspired by crypto staking models, BC Engine transforms the platform’s native token, $BC, from a one-time incentive into a continuous rewards mechanism. Players still earn $BC through wagering as usual, but instead of being distributed as a standalone reward, the token is automatically allocated into BC Engine, where it contributes to ongoing earnings.
Rewards are distributed hourly in BCD, BC.GAME’s USD-pegged token, with each player’s payout determined by their $BC balance at the time of distribution. This structure creates a more consistent and transparent reward model, directly linking player activity to tangible returns.
The system also introduces a more sustainable approach by aligning reward funding with actual gaming performance, reducing reliance on traditional promotional spending.
Importantly, BC Engine is accessible to all players from day one, with no wagering thresholds or tier-based entry requirements, allowing users to begin earning rewards from their very first bet.
Alongside the launch, BC.GAME has rolled out additional enhancements to its rewards ecosystem, including a Welcome Shield protection feature for new users, as well as updated daily, weekly, and monthly reward programs.
The release comes as BC.GAME continues to expand in regulated markets, with an increased focus on compliance, local partnerships, and sustainable growth. The platform has been adapting its offering to meet jurisdictional requirements while strengthening its position across both licensed environments and its global crypto audience.
Kar Kheng Giam, Chief Executive Officer of BC.GAME, said:
“We want rewards to be simpler, more immediate, and more sustainable. Players should see value from the moment they start playing, without needing to reach specific milestones. With BC Engine, $BC becomes a core part of how ongoing rewards are delivered.”
The new features are now live across multiple markets, subject to local regulatory availability.

Paysafe launches Pay with Crypto solution to meet US iGaming market demand
Paysafe (NYSE: PSFE), a global payments platform, today announced the launch of Pay with Crypto, a new crypto payment method for iGaming operators and daily fantasy sports brands in the U.S. market. Powered by MoonPay, the leader in global crypto payments and stablecoin infrastructure, Pay with Crypto allows iGaming brands’ customers to use their preferred stablecoin or cryptocurrency to effortlessly fund their player accounts, where permitted.
With a reported ~70.4m American adults owning cryptocurrency and with Paysafe’s own research indicating that 83% of U.S. players have appetite for crypto payments, the company has responded to meet this demand with Pay with Crypto. Whether a player wants to fund their iGaming account using USD Coin (USDC), another stablecoin, or any major cryptocurrency, Paysafe’s new payment option for operators’ cashiers enables their crypto deposit to be rapidly converted to U.S. dollars to allow play.
After selecting Pay with Crypto and their preferred stablecoin or cryptocurrency, players simply connect their crypto or custodial wallet to fund the deposit, with the MoonPay Commerce Checkouts technology also supporting transactions via QR code using users’ phones. Once transactions have been verified, Pay with Crypto instantly converts crypto deposits into U.S. dollars to fund the player account.
The flexibility embedded in the Pay with Crypto solution also extends to operators, which can choose to settle payments almost instantly in stablecoins in their business’s crypto wallet, or settle in U.S. dollars or any major fiat currency through MoonPay’s Virtual Accounts powered by Iron.
Operators can upgrade their cashiers with Pay with Crypto through a single, streamlined integration of the Paysafe Gateway, which has been developed specifically for iGaming and leverages the company’s 30 years’ global experience. With the Gateway already boasting frictionless card payments, the Skrill digital wallet, the PaysafeCash eCash solution, a Pay by Bank product, and 30+ local payment methods, the addition of Pay with Crypto sees Paysafe continue to diversify its offering to meet evolving transactional preferences.
Zak Cutler, President of Global Gaming at Paysafe, said: “Galvanized by the growing popularity of stablecoins, cryptocurrency is evolving in the U.S. from an investment asset into a unit of value for payments, and we’re seeing this shift gather pace in the country’s iGaming market. Against this backdrop, we’re delighted to unveil Pay with Crypto, a forward-thinking solution that strongly positions U.S. operators for their customers’ changing transactional preferences – the future of how they pay when they play.”
Ivan Soto-Wright, Founder and CEO of MoonPay, commented: “Crypto rails are making payments faster and more efficient, and our job is to close the gap between this technology and real-world utility. People shouldn’t have to convert their digital assets just to make a purchase – they want to use what they already have. Paysafe brings that experience to more people through trusted, regulated platforms.”
