The Dérbi Paulista has always been one of Brazil’s fiercest football rivalries, and this month it spilt onto the blockchain. On FanX, supporters of Corinthians and Palmeiras are not only preparing for the clash on the pitch on Sunday August 31st, but are also battling through a $10,000 Fan Token trading competition.

The trading data

So far, during the week before the big kick off, the numbers tell the story of an intense on-chain derby. Nearly $110,000 in total trading volume has already been recorded, with 173 traders executing 1,565 trades in the race to push their club’s Fan Token ahead.

At the top of the leaderboard, one trader has already moved more than $20,600 in volume across over a hundred trades, with close challengers posting tallies of $10,835 and $7,622. It is a leaderboard every bit as competitive as the fixture itself.

Two contrasting stories: a true rivalry on-chain

On the markets, the two Fan Tokens ($SCCP and $VERDAO) are showing very different profiles. Palmeiras’ $VERDAO is trading at around $0.07, with roughly $1,500 in daily volume, while Corinthians’ $SCCP is priced lower at $0.04 but is generating much stronger liquidity, recording over $27,000 in daily trades. The contrast captures the essence of this rivalry: one side carries a higher Fan Token value, the other surges ahead on sheer trading numbers.

The deep prize pool

What makes the competition especially compelling is the prize structure. A total of $10,000 worth of Fan Tokens will be distributed to the most active traders. The top 20 traders of the token with the highest overall volume share $5,000, while another $5,000 is reserved for the top 20 traders of the token belonging to the team that wins the derby on the pitch. Even for those backing the losing side, there are guaranteed rewards, with a minimum of $2,000 to be shared among participants.

You’re not too late to join!

With days still to go before the ball is kicked, there is plenty of time to join the competition. Every trade not only helps build your own ranking but also strengthens your club’s chances of winning on-chain glory. Just like on matchday, momentum can swing in an instant, and in this unique crossover of football passion and blockchain trading, victory will be measured in both goals and volume.
