[Brazio]

The Italian football team Rimini F.C. 1912 has announced that it has ceded 25% of its property that has been acquired by a company using cryptocurrencies, which makes it the first club in history to be bought in this way, as reported by Forbes. The purchase of the equipment is done by Heritage Sports Holdings (HSH) using the cryptocurrency of a platform that uses the blockchain technology called Quantocoin (QTC).

The club, which in the current season will play in Serie C (third division), is scheduled to hold a press conference next week where they will present new partners, including Pablo Victor Dana, managing partner of the Heritage Group, owner of HSH and co-founder/CEO of Quantocoin. Quantocoin proposes a new payment system using blockchain technology to register each payment instance.

Pablo Dana is not a rookie in terms of associating the cryptocurrency industry with the world of football since the HSH Company owns 80% of the Gibraltar United club that took the initiative to pay its players in cryptocurrency. Dana hopes that the purchase is the first of many in this sporting scene and believes that the cryptocurrency that she founded can help fight corruption within this sport.

Pablo believes that the ideals behind QTC are exactly the same as those that UEFA wants to put into practice, to avoid upcoming corruption situations as in which several football associations that sold their votes were involved so that Qatar will organize the next World Cup. football. Dana concludes with "this is transparency in football and we seek to reduce corruption through our Quantocoin platform".

The Quantocoin platform is a partner of Heritage Sports Holding, which in turn is a majority partner of the football teams Gibraltar United, U.D. Los Barrios and Mantova and counts among its ambassadors ex-footballers Roberto Carlos, Patrick Kluivert and Michel Salgado.
