📍 Risks when investing Fan Token
➡️ Price manipulation: Fan tokens are still a relatively new product on the market. Therefore, the intraday trading volume is relatively small. That makes it vulnerable to attacks and price manipulation by the big players in the market.
➡️ Utility and Token value: Unlike normal coins, Fan Token is just a symbolic asset. In some cases it serves as nothing more than a souvenir and is completely unrelated to the club's business. So there is no potential to hold prices nor grow in the long term.
