Per a blog post from Binance, Cristiano Ronaldo commented:

“My football journey has seen me travel around the world, and I’ve been honored to play for some of the most prestigious clubs out there. Now it’s your turn to join me on that journey too.”

The number of NFTs contained in the new collection won’t be announced until the series launches and there’s so far been no mention of price. However the post did state that the price will be the same for every “Normal NFT” while pricing for the “the final Super Rare NFT” in the collection the collection will differ.

Previous NFT events featuring Cristiano Ronaldo have come with perks outside of the digital realm including a premium experience whereholders were invited to play football with the legend himselfas part of the Binance promotion.

As Cointelegraph reported back in November of 2023, the football superstar wassued in a class action lawsuitin a United States district court in Florida over his previous participation in NFT collection sales with Binance.

The plaintiffs in the suit claimed Ronaldo “promoted, assisted in, and/or actively participated in the offer and sale of unregistered securities in coordination with Binance,” and that he should have known that Binance was involved in such activities.

The suit against Cristiano Renaldo stemmed fromBinance’s previous legal issuesculminating in founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao being found guilty in the U.S. of enabling fraud. He wassentenced in April of 2024 to serve four months in detention for his part in an alleged money laundering scheme.

Fuku-Shiva
The term “Fuku” refers to fortune or good luck. “Shiva” refers to the Hindu deity who represents strongly polar qualities, both severe and delicate. On a beach inspired by adventures on Phi Phi island in Thailand, three youths cavort. Two are representational figures and the third is psychologically rendered. A dynamic relationship ensues between the triad; a reciprocity of active and passive states. The boy on the right engages in maneuvers of evasion, defense, and is dressed in a speedo which reiterates the colors and symbolism of the caution tape on the left and upper right frame of the composition. In concurrent reaction the psychedelic figure shoots out a rocket powered paper airplane. The nude boy seated in the froth and sand approaches in passive repose, and is met with active attention but equal physical reserve by the psychedelic being. Perhaps the most naked figure is also the least representational. Looming large, dynamic, and active, it engages its companions playfully. Various symbols interject into the otherwise naturalistic scene, most notably a beach ball and two contaminated barrels nested in the sand. The upright barrel reads “FukuShima” in Kanji. The barrel laying down reads “Dharma”. To the left the scene is bounded by caution tape, reiterating the danger of the nuclear waste while also hosting alien archetypes, whose presence, as is the nature of these entities, runs up and just behind the consciousness of the psychedelic figure’s eggshell-like skull.
