In its global campaign to make a difference, Crypto.com becomes the first cryptocurrency platform to officially partner with a professional women’s sports team. Revealing the news, Crypto.com says it is now a founding partner of Angel City Football Club (ACFC) and the team’s official cryptocurrency and NFT partner.
By virtue of this recent alliance, the world’s fastest-growing cryptocurrency platform has deepened its relationship with Los Angeles and LA sports fans. Moreover, Crypto.com will support financial education and independence, and financial empowerment for players and fans.
Speaking on why they embarked on this valuable mission, the leading exchange says ACFC is mission-driven to create a different kind of football club that levels the playing field in women’s sports. Thus, mirroring Crypto.com’s mission to level the playing field financially through cryptocurrencies. Kris Marszalek, co-founder, and CEO of Crypto.com affirms,
This latest development comes following the recently-announced naming rights agreement for the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Crypto.com will increase access and awareness of cryptocurrencies, blockchain, and Web3 technologies among LA soccer fans, ACFC players, and across the broader ACFC organization.
ACFC is leading the way in women’s sports, creating innovative partnership models and tapping into a diverse and dynamic ownership group that includes Alexis Ohanian, Natalie Portman, Eva Longoria, Jessica Chastain, Uzo Aduba, Julie Foudy, Mia Hamm, and more. The partnership will include a focus on community engagement, financial equity, and social impact initiatives. Alexis Ohanian, Seven Seven Six Founder, and ACFC Leading Founding Investor submits,
Crypto.com continues working to expand access to cryptocurrency across diverse communities globally and not just the creative capital of the world, Los Angeles. Combining efforts with ACFC, one of the most forward-thinking professional sports teams in the world is a big feat for Crypto.com.
