<h4><strong>Paris Saint Germain (PSG,) a French football team, is deepening its ties in SportFi following its latest role as a validator for the Chiliz blockchain. </strong></h4>
<p>The football team and blockchain platform have an existing partnership where the Chiliz chain hosts Paris Saint-Germain’s fan tokens.</p>
<h5><strong>PSG: Soccer’s First Chiliz Validator</strong></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Their new partnership makes PSG the first top professional football team to serve as a blockchain protocol validator. The club plans to reinvest funds generated from validating the <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=chiliz" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Chiliz chain</a> in buying back its tokens from public marketplaces.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A club official, Pär Helgosson, noted that the buyback would be automated and executed by smart contracts. Helgosson serves as PSG head of Web3.
