As football fever mounts ahead of the Dérbi Paulista this Sunday, August 31, the fiercest rivalry in São Paulo is making waves not just on the pitch but also on-chain. Fans of Palmeiras and Corinthians are trading their respective fan tokens, $VERDAO and $SCCP, in a heated competition that mirrors the intensity of the match day itself.

On-Chain Momentum: Trading Numbers Tell the Tale

In the week leading up to kickoff, the trading battle has already racked up nearly $110,000 in volume, with 1,565 trades executed by 107 different traders. It’s a leaderboard war: one trader alone has moved a staggering $20,600, while others follow close behind with volumes of $10,835 and $7,622. We’ve already seen more than 1320 total trades in the buildup to the highly anticipated Derbi.

$VERDAO v $SCCP: Two Fan Token Stories

The two Fan Tokens offer a study in contrasts:

$VERDAO (Palmeiras’ Fan Token) trades higher, at around $0.07, but sees relatively modest daily volume, about $1,500.
$SCCP (Corinthians’ Fan Token), on the other hand, has more momentum. It is priced at roughly $0.04 but commands a much larger daily trading volume of $27,000.

So while Palmeiras fans hold the edge in valuation, Corinthians supporters are surging ahead through sheer trading activity.

Stakes Beyond the Scoreboard

What elevates this on-chain duel is the $10,000 prize pool: a twist to the typical derby drama.

$5,000 is allocated to the top 20 traders of the Fan Token with the highest volume, regardless of which club’s token it is.
The remaining $5,000 is earmarked for the top 20 traders of the token belonging to the club that wins the derby on August 31.
Even if their team doesn’t prevail, participants tied to the losing side still stand to share at least $2,000.

Every trade counts: on the leaderboard and in the hearts of supporters.

Derby Outlook: Digital Duel Echoes on the Pitch

Just as the Fan Tokens clash on FanX, Palmeiras and Corinthians are set to renew their fiercest rivalry on the field this Sunday. Here’s how the parallel narratives unfold:

Palmeiras: Their $VERDAO may be riding the value wave, but will that translate into momentum when the whistle blows?
Corinthians: Backed by fierce trading volume, the $SCCP camp has been active and aggressive. Can that energy carry them to victory at the stadium?

If trades are any indicator, this derby is gearing up to be one of the most electric encounters in recent memory, both online and on the pitch.

With trading still underway, there’s time for late movers to make their mark and shift the balance, both in ranking and team morale. At kickoff on Sunday, August 31, 2025, this matchup promises to deliver double duty: goals, glory, and blockchain bragging rights.
