Sports bring people together, transcending boundaries and regions. And when it’s FIFA we’re talking about, the whole world comes together to watch, celebrate, and cheer, even if their own country’s team isn’t playing.

We at KuCoin are celebrating this unifying spirit by holding our very own Crypto World Cup for the crypto loving fans of FIFA. Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming KuCoin Crypto World Cup celebration, what’s at stake, and how you can be a part of it!

Introduction - Celebrate the Spirit of FIFA With Crypto

The FIFA World Cup is the greatest football event, where competing nations’ teams and the world’s greatest players come together to win the coveted title of being the best in the world! The FIFA World Cup 2022 is being held in Qatar between 20 November and 18 December.

The 22nd edition of the cup is heading to the Middle East for the very first time, a historic event in itself. 8 groups of 4 countries each - a total of 32 countries, are participating in this year’s football World Cup event.

The crypto world is one that has a close association with that of sports, with the market being a competitive one and each trader trying to make it to the top! The bridge between cryptocurrencies and sports and games has been built further in recent years with the introduction of Play-to-Earn (P2E) and Move-to-Earn-themed projects, and sports fan tokens to drive higher engagement.

The world of crypto trading is lucrative, requires considerable practice and dedication, high level of motivation until you break in and make it big, and has the potential for high rewards. Crypto trading, in its decentralized form, is a big unifier too - the crypto community rallies for its kind and encourages everyone to try just as hard!

And we’re just scratching the surface here! The close relationship between sports and crypto is only getting stronger, as leading sports celebrities enter the world of NFTs, promote their own decentralized projects, and become a part of the crypto revolution powered by Web3.
