Each dimension is explained on the directory page, and the reasoning behind it is taught in the Academy research process.

Supply and value capture

A hard maximum supply that cannot be raised without the agreement of essentially every participant. The token captures no protocol revenue. Any value rests on governance rights, speculation, or future changes that have not happened yet.

The founding team retains control over upgrades or parameters. Ownership is heavily concentrated. A small number of wallets hold enough to determine the price on their own.

Where it is strong and where it is not

✓ Strengths
  • Has operated for around 6 years and through at least one full bear market
  • Supply is capped, so holders are not diluted indefinitely
  • Audited, with published reports
  • Fully open source, so the code can be independently reviewed
✗ Weaknesses
  • Heavily concentrated ownership means a few wallets control the outcome
  • The token captures no protocol revenue, so its value rests on sentiment
  • Upgrade control sits with a small group, so the rules can change
  • Thin liquidity. Check order book depth before assuming you can exit

Incident history

No major exploit, collapse or regulatory action on record against this asset.

Our read

The largest and most liquid fan token, and the clearest example of the category. The voting rights are genuinely trivial, typically covering things like a goal celebration song or a bus design, and the marketing has drawn criticism from supporter groups and advertising regulators in several countries for overstating what holders actually get.

The main risk

Voting rights are trivial, the price tracks club results and attention, and fan token marketing has drawn regulatory criticism.

Before you buy anything

Check the contract address against the project's own documentation rather than a search result or a screener link, since impersonation tokens with identical names and logos are listed constantly. Check the order book depth before assuming you can exit at the quoted price. And write down what would make you wrong before you buy, not after. The Academy thesis module covers why that single habit protects more capital than any indicator.
