Frequently asked questions
What is GALO and how is it different from a regular cryptocurrency?
GALO is a fan token, not a general-purpose currency like Bitcoin. Its main value comes from connecting holders with Atlético Mineiro through voting rights, rewards, and fan experiences, rather than serving as a means of payment or store of value. You can still trade it on exchanges, but its purpose is fan engagement.
How does the technology behind GALO work?
Fan tokens like GALO are typically issued on established blockchains, often as side-chain assets built on platforms like Chiliz, which specializes in sports fan tokens. Ownership is recorded on-chain, so tokens can be held, transferred, or traded like any crypto asset. The club and the platform then use apps to let holders participate in polls and access perks.
How is the supply of GALO structured?
GALO has a hard cap of 10,000,000 coins, meaning no more than that can ever be created. This fixed maximum supply is written into the token's design and can't be changed casually. Some fan tokens are released gradually through sales and rewards, but the total can never exceed the cap.
How can you store and use GALO tokens?
You can keep GALO in a crypto wallet that supports its underlying blockchain, or in the official fan token app where engagement features live. Holding tokens usually unlocks voting rights on club polls, exclusive content, merchandise discounts, and other supporter perks. You can also trade GALO on exchanges that list it.
