Boröff programming club Dortmund introduces NFT player cards in FIFA Rivals - partnership in Web3 begins
In a bold move that signals the convergence of football and blockchain technology, FIFA Rivals, a popular mobile game, has partnered with German football powerhouse Borussia Dortmund (BVB). This collaboration is set to bring players, jerseys, and other club content directly into the game, providing an immersive experience for football fans worldwide.
The partnership, viewed by BVB's management as an important step into the digital future, has caught the attention of Mythical Games, the company behind FIFA Rivals. They see potential for FIFA Rivals to surpass their previous game, NFL Rivals, due to the massive football fan base. Mythical Games' founders, with extensive experience in gaming and technology, are excited about this opportunity, highlighting BVB as a strong brand with a rich history.
With the integration, users can now collect digital player cards of BVB pros like Karim Adeyemi, Serhou Guirassy, Nico Schlotterbeck, and Gregor Kobel. Additionally, the official BVB jerseys can be unlocked as collectibles in the game.
FIFA Rivals, published in June 2025, has already surpassed one million downloads, a testament to its growing popularity. The game uses Mythos Chain, a blockchain based on Polkadot, and all contents in the game, like player cards, jerseys, or emblems, are stored as NFTs (non-fungible tokens).
The Bitcoin Hyper token is currently in presale and has raised over 10 million dollars. It costs 0.012755 dollars on the official website and is being touted as an investment theme that builds on Bitcoin but uses the fast Solana technology, aiming to make transactions cheaper and faster. Investors can achieve attractive yields through staking with Bitcoin Hyper, but it's important to note that investing is speculative and carries risk.
A giveaway event is running until August 24, rewarding daily logins with free Borussia Dortmund player cards, emblems, and special bonuses. The community's feedback for FIFA Rivals is positive, with many players appreciating the ability to own and trade digital content. Mythical Games also announces big giveaways with both digital and physical prizes like merchandise or stadium tickets.
Special in-game events, tournaments, rewards, and exclusive content related to Borussia Dortmund are planned for FIFA Rivals. These additions promise to further enhance the gaming experience for football fans and collectors alike. As cryptocurrencies move into the mainstream, with the GENIUS Act providing stablecoins with a solid legal framework, it's clear that the intersection of sports, gaming, and blockchain technology is an exciting frontier to watch.
