How PSG’s Big Win Made Fans Money (Or Not)🤔

Oh, the glorious chaos of the football world! Paris Saint-Germain’s fan token shot up a whopping 18%, jumping from a measly $1.98 to a shiny $2.34. All this after their splendid 5-0 thumping of Inter Milan, which, believe it or not, was enough to make some people think they’d won the lottery. Funny thing is, just a couple of days earlier, the token was suffering a 28.5% hangover since May 30—like a drunkard staggering home after a long night.

PSG Brings Bitcoin to the Party

On June 2, the PSG fan token got a brief burst, sprouting wings like a tired bird after its nap—rising over 18%, from $1.98 to $2.34. This outburst came more than 24 hours following PSG’s smashing victory over Inter Milan, and oh, how it tried to hold onto that high, only to fall back like a poorly thrown football. It was the kind of rally that makes you think, “Hey! Things are looking up!” then quickly realize it’s just a tease.

What makes this more interesting is PSG’s big gamble—adding Bitcoin to their treasure chest. Yes, while most clubs are busy buying players, PSG decided to diversify and throw some cryptocurrency into the mix. According to the wise folks at TopMob, PSG took some of its boring old fiat and turned it into shiny digital gold in 2024. Helgoson, the guy in charge of PSG Labs, said they’re now the biggest fish in the sports pond doing this—no small feat in a pond full of hungry sharks.

Now, don’t get it twisted; PSG’s main goal has always been to hoist the Champions League trophy high, crown of European football and all that. They’ve spent more money than some countries’ GDP, gathering stars like Messi, Kylian Mbappé, and Neymar, yet the trophy always seemed just out of reach—like a mirage in a desert of disappointment. Their 2020 defeat to Bayern Munich was the closest they’d come, and boy, did that sting.

But like any good story, this one has a twist. With some old players dismissed and under the watchful eye of Luis Enrique, PSG started playing a different game—one that actually made sense. This year, they knocked out big names like Barcelona, Arsenal, and Liverpool—like bulldozers on steroids—and made it all the way to the final. Now that’s a comeback story, folks.

As for the token—well, it was about as lively as a Sunday morning. After the win, it kept drifting downward, like a balloon losing helium. It hit a low of $1.95 just before the match, then briefly rallied to $2.08—the token’s own little celebration—before slipping back into obscurity. As of today, it’s hanging around at $2.15, probably wondering if it’s worth all this fuss or just better off staying in the digital dust.
