Bitget, one of the world’s fastest growing cryptocurrency exchange platforms for crypto derivatives trading, has announced a collaboration with Argentine soccer star and seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Andres Messi at a news article.

Through this collaboration, Bitget will provide Messi fans with a special opportunity to learn more about Web 3.0 and the possibilities of trading cryptocurrencies on the exchange. Additionally, it is agreed that the collaboration will allow both parties to pursue more meaningful initiatives that go beyond cryptocurrencies and football.

“I wanted to express my gratitude to Bitget for inspiring me to get involved in the cryptocurrency community. I have faith that both parties will launch valuable initiatives and bring web 3 to sports enthusiasts”, says Leo Messi.

“The associations we choose try to represent the richness and diversity of our platform community. They let crypto traders into the field and we let sports fans into Web 3,” says Bitget managing director Gracy Chen.

Bitget is a leading cryptocurrency exchange that was founded in 2018. With over 55,000 professional traders and nearly 1.1 million followers, One-Click Copy Trade, Bitget’s premier social trading tool, demonstrates the substantial work and success of the company in the social trading of cryptocurrencies.

While many cryptocurrency platforms are struggling with the uncertainty caused by the recent collapse of the digital currency ecosystem. Bitget claimed that it is in a good position to increase its workforce by 100% before the end of the year.

The association of Lionel Messi is not the first that occurs in the digital space. In related news, Usain Bolt, an 11-time world champion and eight-time Olympic gold winner, has associated with the Step app to improve fitness and exercise using Web3 and the metaverse.

In 2020, the Italian soccer giant Juventus Football Club enters a License agreementt with Sorare, a blockchain-based fantasy football company. As part of the partnership, Juventus will provide extremely rare digital trading cards of some of the team’s most famous superstars, including five-time Ballon d’Or winner Christiano Ronaldo, while Sorare will provide digital cards created using Ethereum technology.
