BERLIN, GERMANY. August 27th, 2024 – A new era of soccer is here: ONEPLAYR is pioneering a digital revolution that redefines the digital soccer experience through blockchain, NFTs, and artificial intelligence. This platform pushes the boundaries of the game by inviting fans and players alike to actively participate in the global community—and benefit from it.

 “ONEPLAYR isn’t just a platform; it’s a movement that connects soccer lovers everywhere—whether you’re a player, a weekend warrior, or a fan. We’re linking up soccer enthusiasts worldwide and using cutting-edge technology to create a dynamic, interactive community,” says Fabio Murolo, Founder and CEO of ONEPLAYR. As a seasoned cybersecurity expert and successful startup entrepreneur, Murolo is driven by his mission to digitally democratize the sport.

ONEPLAYR uses an AI-powered analysis system where players can upload soccer videos during the registration process, which are then analyzed by the AI. Based on this analysis, the player receives a limited series of custom NFTs representing their unique abilities (a digital player card). These NFTs can be traded on ONEPLAYR’s marketplace. A TikTok-like feed and advanced search features help the community discover players.

 

“With ONEPLAYR, we’ve created a platform where the community doesn’t just watch—members can actually invest in players directly”, Murolo explains. “By purchasing a player’s NFT early on, our users can essentially secure a stake in that player’s career. As the player gains popularity within the community, the value of the NFT increases. Not only do the players benefit, but for the first time, fans who’ve invested in these NFTs do too.”

In-app ad revenue, transaction fees, and challenge royalties are fairly split between players and NFT holders. Unlike other social media platforms, this approach gives fans an active role in a player’s success.

 

At its core, ONEPLAYR isn’t just about tech innovation but creating a vibrant, global soccer community where competition and fun are front and center. Players of all skill levels compete in various challenges, while the community decides who wins. Winners earn exclusive rewards or unique experiences. In-game incentives and an active NFT marketplace offer even more engagement.

 

 

ONEPLAYR runs on a transparent token model that ensures fair distribution of rewards:

 

•        $PLAYR Token: This token allows users to purchase NFTs, earn rewards, unlock exclusive promotions, and take part in special events. It’s the primary currency for all activities within the platform.

 $PLAYR will be listed on both centralized and decentralized exchanges (CEXs and DEXs) to provide maximum accessibility and liquidity for token holders. 

•        $FAN Token: Generated by staking $PLAYR, $FAN tokens unlock access to premium perks like exclusive app features, discounts, and special in-game rewards.

 ONEPLAYR is also deeply committed to social causes: 10% of all transaction fees are donated to national and international education and youth development programs. The distribution of these donations is decided by a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO).

 

Since August 15, the first airdrop phase of ONEPLAYR has been live. Soccer fans can earn free $PLAYR tokens by joining the ONEPLAYR Discord, participating in the “Refer a Friend” campaign, and following ONEPLAYR on various social networks. A total of 500 million coins are being distributed for free during this airdrop phase.

Starting September 15, the official presale phase of the $PLAYR Token will begin, giving fans the chance to purchase tokens at a discounted price. The Initial Coin Offering (ICO) is scheduled for Q1 2025. The beta launch of the app is planned for late October, with 10,000 users getting early access. The official app launch will coincide with the ICO. 

ONEPLAYR’s actions are fully transparent, with every step available to the public. Murolo states, “With this transparent approach, we aim to keep our users involved from the beginning and allow them to actively track the progress of our project.”

 

ONEPLAYR is backed by strong support and partnerships. More than 40 professional soccer players have already pledged their support, with four featured on the website. Additional well-known pros, including international stars, will be introduced soon. ONEPLAYR’s partners include the renowned creative agency Zum goldenen Hirschen, digital service provider Up Solutions, and prominent crypto lawyer Michael Kissler.

 -3 Kingdoms Group pioneering Premier League contract negotiations backed by data analytics-

LONDON  (May 10, 2021) — 3 Kingdoms Group, founded by preeminent US Record Promoter, Singer and Songwriter James Worthy (3x Grammy nominated, collaborations with Whitney Houston, Fetty Wap, Bobby Brown, T-Pain and many more) and ‘best connected men in London’ technology & entertainment entrepreneurs Steve Sharpe and Tansel Adacan (both recently seen on ITV1’s Million Pound Pawn) have engaged in a historic collaboration to form the 3 Kingdoms Group, enrolling Premier League & International soccer talent for intermediary representation with data insights-backed commercial negotiations.

The 3 Kingdoms team brings together expertise and experience from a broad range of backgrounds including Data Science, Software Engineering, Data Analytics as well as Managers of global entertainment talent including major US hip hop and R&B stars. 

The company prepares performance analysis reporting prior to negotiations, looking at a range of relevant metrics and discerning the player’s true market value by comparing that data to other similar players across comparable leagues. The agency also advises its players with one-to-one analytics consultancy so that they can pinpoint areas to incrementally improve their game, ultimately raising their market value.

“Soccer is an extremely data-rich game because of the number of actions each player makes. However, taking that data and interpreting it completely accurately, then democratising those findings to make them accessible beyond the understanding of statisticians and analysts, is where the value really comes into its own,” said Tansel Adacan, President of Data and Operations at 3 Kingdoms Group. “Once you really understand and distil down your data, you can start to cut through the emotional anchors and confirmation biases often present in human decision-making to the objective truth. With this approach, we help players to achieve stronger bargaining positions by either supporting or challenging any presuppositions or assumptions about the player within the commercial negotiation.” 

Located in London, the 3 Kingdoms Group Sports Agency looks also to build its players off-the-field business and life skills, providing education for players in finance, legal and media. “Our players will finish their playing careers with a defined wealth and career plan beyond their playing days and receive individualised support and mentorship which can set them up for a wide range of second careers after soccer in performance, technology, entrepreneurship, all aspects of music, and sports business management,” said Chief Executive Steve Sharpe. “Our players will engage with the Board regularly, alongside visiting guest consultants and established former professionals, while participating in immersive education and mentorship programmes, ensuring they finish their soccer playing days with both hands-on experience and a network of professional contacts.”

“Our proximity and heritage in and around the global technology, music and entertainment industries positions us to offer unparalleled experiential off-the-field learning, and our data and analytics expertise strengthens our players’ bargaining position in the negotiation room in a way that’s fit for the modern era of the game.” said President of International Sports, 3x Grammy nominee James Worthy. “We are proud to be pioneering an unprecedented commercial resource for the modern generation of soccer players.”

 

3 Kingdoms, founded in 2021 in response to the general outcry from players, media and fans alike for more commercial fairness and ethics in European soccer, is uniquely borne out of the ideas of preeminent entertainment, music and technology entrepreneurs with a passion for the beautiful game. 3 Kingdoms services every aspect of modern soccer players’ lives, with commercial protection and education at its core. 3 Kingdoms is a full-service organisation, uniquely supporting a diverse roster of talent via player management, performance analytics, mentorship &. education, strategic brand development, and beyond.

As a club, we have always wanted to be a force of positivity and constantly want to find new ways to engage and improve our ties to our community. The raffle allowed our local and soccer community to collaborate with our club and suggest businesses and charities that would benefit from a sponsorship relationship with a sports club, at no cost to the business/charities.
“In the midst of a global pandemic, businesses and charities are finding it incredibly hard to stay afloat. We wanted to find ways to support our community and felt that offering sponsorship at no cost to the selected businesses/charities was a small gesture to help give some deserved promotion and also strengthen ties to our community.” Says Nick Platt, Club President.
We are thrilled to announce the three businesses we are partnering with:

We are delighted to partner with a distinguished local soccer club that captures and celebrates the diversity of NYC in addition to sharing our passion of making a difference in the lives of New Yorkers. Thank you to NY International FC for working with us and putting as much effort into doing good work off the field as you do on it!”

PRINCETON, US 19th December 2022 – Football fans have taken to social media to react to the news that popular streaming website Hesgoal & Score808 amongst many other sites have been banished by United States law enforcement authorities with the FIFA World Cup 2022 finals approaching. 

Piracy is an issue prevalent in sport with sites such as Hesgoal attracting “millions” of monthly visitors looking to stream live content for free. That option was thought to be banished by US authorities. Instead, visitors were welcomed by a seizure banner, stating the US now owns the domain and restricts access. In only a few hours after the site was seized, the suspects launched a new website to stream sports under the name AJ Sports TV. They are accessible on https://www.ajsportstv.ch

 

Homeland security execs worked closely with FBI to track down owners of popular illegal streaming sites in the hopes of tackling major crimes of distributing copyright material without the owner’s consent. 

US Intelligence are led to believe that two twelve-year old Russian hackers were behind the streaming website Hesgoal and Score808, pin-pointing their location to Moscow, Russia. The ongoing conflict between Russia and US leaves authorities having no jurisdiction to detain suspected criminals. 

 

A few days ago Russia warns of ‘consequences’ if U.S. sends Patriot missiles to Ukraine KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russia’s Foreign Ministry warned Thursday that if the United States confirms reports that it plans to deliver sophisticated air defense missiles to Ukraine, it would be “another provocative move by the U.S.” that could prompt a response from Moscow. 

 

AJ Sports TV’s domain was registered in Russia’s origin which leaves the US intelligence having no control or influence over the court proceedings leaving FIFA Owner, Gianni Infantino infuriated at the US Government for not taking deem able action. 

CASABLANCA, MOROCCO 6th February 2023 – In an official correspondence addressed to Mourad Elajouti, president of the club of lawyers in Morocco , the authorities of FIFA confirmed the receipt of the complaint of the club of lawyers addressed to the sporting body of soccer on January 19, 2023 affirming that it received their full attention.

The lawyers’ association had denounced in this complaint the statements made by a South African politician during the opening ceremony of the African soccer competition CHAN 2022 making the apology of terrorism and hate speech.

In this correspondence FIFA stated that the lawyers’ club is entitled to refer to the judicial authorities in accordance with the provisions of Article 52 paragraph 2 of the FIFA disciplinary code provides that :”Any person or authority may bring to the attention of FIFA’s judicial bodies any conduct that he deems to be in breach of FIFA regulations. Such allegations must be made in writing.”

The Disciplinary Committee has opened a file under the number FDD-13973 which are the same references of the FIFA disciplinary decisions

Mourad Elajouti emphasized in his complaint to FIFA that “The promotion or announcement of political or religious messages, or any political or religious action in the enclosure or in the immediate vicinity of the stadium and by any means whatsoever, is strictly prohibited before, during and after the matches,” according to Article 60 of the FIFA Regulations on safety and security of stadiums.

According to the appeal lodged by the lawyers’ club, the Algerian Football Federation is entirely responsible for the actions of the fans and the political speech made by the guests at the opening ceremony.

Article 16 of the FIFA disciplinary code states that “The host associations are responsible for maintaining order and security before, during and after the matches in the stadium and its surroundings. Associations and clubs will be held responsible for the inappropriate behavior of their fans and may be subject to disciplinary measures including any gestures, words, objects or any other means to convey a message inappropriate to a sporting event, namely messages of a political, ideological, religious or offensive nature”.

The Casablanca lawyer specified in his complaint that the FIFA regulations on safety and security of stadiums condemn any provocative and aggressive action and any speech of racism.

Article 60 Paragraph 2 states that the organizer of the event must ensure, in cooperation with the local security authorities, that fans do not act in a provocative or aggressive manner in the stadium or in its immediate vicinity. This includes unacceptable verbal provocation or aggression towards players, match officials or fans of the opposing team, racist behavior, banners and flags with provocative or aggressive slogans.

Mourad Elajouti indicates that in the event that such provocations occur, the event organizer and/or security forces are required to intervene immediately. The organizers must report any serious acts of misconduct, including racist insults, to the police so that any troublemakers can be expelled from the stadium. This has not been observed by the Algerian authorities who have encouraged these abhorrent actions.

The association of Moroccan lawyers has denounced in its correspondence to FIFA the odious behavior of the South African mercenary paid to promote hatred and terrorism.
