I'm not sure that we will get a proper understanding of what is intended until after the purchase of the club has gone through if at all. It's all a bit emperor's new clothes at the moment
If it happens, whether the sale is conducted in pounds, dollars or crypto is of little relevance to fans. It's a matter for the buyer and the seller to sort out between themselves. Personally, I couldn't give a toss.
Of more interest is how the use of NFTs as a revenue stream is used. They will be tapping into fan loyalty for NFTs whether that's for the likes of memorabilia or player shares or even buying some kind of 'share' in the club. But either way the money for the NFTs will come out of fans' pockets. As an aside NFTs are being sold between $10k and $50k for the the acquisition of some designer trainers. Trainers that aren't being manufactured, can't be worn or even stuck in the wardrobe for later. They are virtual. But people are buying them all the same
Hopefully if the club can use analytics in a more productive manner, we will be able to do a Brentford. Of course, the fact that Matthew Benham is a long term fan and has put over £100m of his own money into Brentford has helped more than a little! Although it's all very sketchy at the moment and may never happen, I haven't seen or read anything that there is a pot of cash sitting there waiting to be invested in the club to take it forward.
We could be in for an exciting ride .. or maybe just an enormous flop. The next month or two will decide things once we have a better understanding of their intentions.

It might be pure bol@@@x but it’s been fun. We should n’t let fear and ignorance cloud our judgements. All new idea’s are received sceptically and all new young millionaires have been told you’ll never make it. Bitcoin makes no sense to me. Neither does driverless cars, artificial intelligence or FaceTime and what the hell is a QR code? I don’t know but it works!
Dream on and let’s see how it pan’s out. Some clever brains will work it out. All I know is it’s made me want to go to Carlisle. -

Hey, I own some Panini NFT's, they're not complicated to figure out. Cryptocurrencies, I don't have a clue about, and I have no interest in monitoring graphs day in, day out to try and make good on an investment. Making money on cryptocurrencies seems like a lot of hard work with a heavy analytical focus; it's not for me.
But that doesn't mean it's not legit or real or that it's based 'in the clouds'.
The irony is Parker's article here criticising some of the daft, ignorant statements these fellas have made is equally heavily flawed, daft and ignorant.

PSG from £42.02 to £10.32, Man C from£24.62 to £6.61 in FOUR months and Leeds who lets face it are not in the same class as the other two only launched 3 months ago and down from £4.53 to£3.78. If a PL club is at that value where would we be. Anyone heard the song of the “Kings new clothes”?Bantam Boy, Silverbantam, River_City_Bantam and 6 others like this. -

Right so now the matter is closed it’s up to Rupp to invest and get this club back to at least Championship level.
If he bullshits us again with false promises then I’m done and he’ll lose a season ticket holder of 40 years as I won’t continue to watch this crap that’s offered year in year out.

Thousands are interested in this and enthusiastic about the prospect of us getting rid of our useless, faceless, feckless, non speaking, owner.

I'm not saying these guys were right for us, or that I wanted a bunch of crypto nerds owning us, but it was worth investigating the possibility.
What this whole thing clearly indicates is we are being lied to by our owner and our ceo. This is apparently the second offer he has declined.
It's time for him to go, he has one interest in us and that is making a profit on his "investment" and has no interest in taking us forward.
Lies have been told to us, lies have been told to players about our ambition and lies have been told to the press about this bid.
