NFT collector and market influencer Pranksy has teamed up with Sorare, the popular blockchain-based sports card game, in a partnership named “Pranksy Plays”.

As part of the collaboration, the NFT collector has invested in Sorare’s football cards and will invite his community to join private leagues with prizes, including NFTs from the Pranksy vault, VIP Premier League tickets, and merchandise provided by Sorare.

Two private leagues will be available to players, with one accepting only free-to-play cards, and the other requiring Super Rare or Unique cards. 

Pranksy and his team have invested in Sorare cards, focusing on Super Rare players under 23 years old, purchased from the auction house or secondary market.

Sorare partnered with Premier League.

Sorare is making waves

Pranksy expressed his excitement for the partnership on Twitter, stating that Sorare has been on his radar for years and praising the platform for being consistently placed among the top 10 NFT projects for weekly volume despite being less mentioned amongst mainstream collectors. 

Sorare’s recent partnership with the Premier League also caught Pranksy’s attention, as he is a regular Fantasy Premier League player.

Pranksy’s journey over the years

Pranksy has made a name for himself in the NFT market as an NFT whale, project creator, and market influencer. His journey as a collector began with Cryptokitties in 2017, and he gained attention for his success as an NBA Topshot collector, recording almost $7 million in profits. 

Despite the bear market, his wallet’s net worth is estimated to be $6.7 million, with $4.64 million in NFTs, including 40 Doodles worth a total of $445,000!

About Sorare

Sorare is the most popular blockchain-based fantasy sports game with over 3 million subscribers since 2019 and around 200,000 daily active players worldwide.

The game is free-to-play, but purchasing rarer cards allows participation in more prestigious leagues. Participants earn points with their cards based on the real-life performance of players. 

Final thoughts

The partnership between Pranksy and Sorare presents a significant opportunity for both parties. With “Pranksy Plays”, Sorare aims to attract NFT collectors from Pranksy’s community while Pranksy could reach sports fans unfamiliar with NFTs. 

This partnership is likely to boost Sorare’s visibility and attract more users to the platform while enhancing Pranksy’s reputation and influence within the NFT market.

Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, known for their substantial investments in cryptocurrency, have become co-owners of Real Bedford Football Club (RBFC), in alignment with Bitcoin podcaster Peter McCormack's ambitious plans to elevate the club to the English Premier League. The twins have injected $4.5 million worth of Bitcoin into the club through their investment firm, Winklevoss Capital, marking a significant move to support the club's future aspirations.
This financial backing is set to fund the establishment of a Bitcoin treasury for the club. According to McCormack, who spoke to Cointelegraph, this strategy is intended to protect the club from long-term fiat currency debasement. "The investment helps with the infrastructure we need to grow this with our ambitions," McCormack noted. Part of the funds will also go towards developing a new training center and enhancing support for youth and girls' football programs.
McCormack, who acquired RBFC in 2021, aims to see the club, which is based in his hometown of Bedford, ascend through the ranks to compete with major Premier League teams like Manchester United and Chelsea. RBFC is pioneering in its acceptance of Bitcoin for game day tickets, merchandise, sponsorships, and even beverages. "We are a long way from the Premier League, but as exciting as that is our ambition, I work on one league at a time," McCormack stated.
Echoing McCormack's vision, Cameron Winklevoss expressed the broader intent behind their investment, "We’re not just investing in a football club, we’re investing in a dream to bring Premier League football to Bedford." Tyler Winklevoss added, “We share in Peter’s deep conviction in Bitcoin and its ability to supercharge RBFC’s quest to make it into the Premier League.”
This investment comes on the heels of another significant contribution by the Winklevoss twins, who recently donated $4.9 million to the crypto-focused Fairshake super political action committee (PAC) to support cryptocurrency-friendly candidates in upcoming U.S. elections, underscoring their continued commitment to promoting cryptocurrency's role in various sectors.
