Top Footballer Thompson: Will Not Issue Tokens, Predicts Bitcoin Will Reach $150,000 by Year End

BlockBeats News, September 25th, NBA star Tristan Thompson stated in an interview that he will not issue personal tokens or any other cryptocurrency, and will instead focus on long-term development in the cryptocurrency field. He is currently building a personal cryptocurrency investment portfolio and predicts that the price of Bitcoin will reach $150,000 by the end of the year.

BlockBeats previously reported that on September 19th, Thompson was collaborating with Improbable CEO Herman Narula and co-founder Hadi Teherany to launch a player tokenization platform called basketball.fun on the Layer 1 blockchain Somnia, which went live earlier this month. This platform aims to tokenize player value in real time. The application will not have a native token at launch to differentiate itself from projects like Socios that rely on token prices. Instead, players will have in-app value reflecting fan sentiment and game outcomes.
