FC Barcelona, the Spanish football club Forbes values for $ 5.65 billion, releases a wallet for his upcoming NFTs called Barça.Pass as part of his digital strategy.
Anyone with a Barça ID can now claim a wallet and will eventually be able to use it to create an FC Barcelona Avatar NFT, to adjust the character with official merchandus and other types of digital items in awaiting an upcoming FCB mobile racing game.
Crypto Infra company FutureVerserse has set up the Barça Pass. Futureverse CEO Aaron McDonald told me that the NFT Avatars will exist on the gaming-oriented L1-Blockchain large and can be equipped with “semi-favorable” portable digital items. Root is EVM-compatible and uses XRP as its guest smoking as well as the XRPL XLS-20 NFT standard.
Wearables can be purchased via the Shopify integration of FCB, explained McDonald.
Traders can also buy or sell FCB -Digital items on market places such as tradesevers that are integrated with the ecosystem of the root chain and those items with crypto -like root or XRP can buy.
According to the post of FCB, more than 11 million Barça IDs had already been established before the launch.

However, the wallet is not just a package to hold your avatar. McDonald told me that “a wide range of onchain experiences and applications will support that developers build.”

FCB has previously borrowed its name to various (non-Crypto) mobile games over the years, including an endless mobile game from the runner about ten years ago and even a cooking game in 2018.
Last year it launched a mobile minigame app called Barça Games, but that app is no longer available in the Google Play Store.
