Soccer legend Cristiano Ronaldo took a polygraph test to answer several questions about soccer and teased his plans to release more non-fungible token (NFT) collections in the future.
The lie detector test video was created as the football star released his second NFT collection in partnership with crypto exchange Binance. The collection was released in July to celebrate the athlete’s reign as the highest goalscorer in the sport.

In the video, football fans could watch Ronaldo take the lie detector test as he answered football-related yes-or-no questions, such as “Will Portugal win the World Cup?” and “Are you still playing at your highest level in your 40s?”
When asked if he owns NFTs, the athlete said “yes,” and the lie detector test confirmed he was telling the truth. The results were the same when Ronaldo was asked if he had any future plans to release more NFTs.
Ronaldo released his first NFT collection on Binance in 2022 after signing a multi-year partnership with the exchange. The partnership aims to introduce Web3 to football fans around the world through various NFT campaigns. According to an announcement, the NFTs released by Ronaldo will provide fans with exclusive opportunities to connect with the soccer superstar.

Meanwhile, Brazilian football star Ronaldinho Gaúcho has been involved in an investigation into crypto fraud in Brazil. On August 27, local media reported that the footballer failed to appear before Congress due to an investigation into a pyramid scheme allegedly linked to one of his companies.
On August 31, the football finally appeared before a committee inquiry, denying any role in a plan that promised a 2% daily return on crypto. A lawsuit was filed seeking $61 million in damages against the company, which Ronaldinho denied having a partnership with. According to the athlete, the company used his images without permission and claimed that he too was a victim of the scheme.
