Nashville SC News Release


NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Nashville Soccer Club announced today the addition of Valkyrie Investments, a Nashville-based investment manager focused on digital assets, as a Founding Partner. The groundbreaking partnership makes Nashville SC the first Major League Soccer club to accept its full partnership fee in bitcoin.

"As a club we want to be pioneers both on and off the pitch while also being Authentically Nashville," said Dan Farrell, Vice President of Corporate Partnerships with Nashville SC. "Partnering with Valkyrie provides both a local tie and a platform to connect sports and entertainment to cryptocurrency in the hottest city in the United States."

"Our industry is all about community, and soccer is very much a community-driven sport," said Valkyrie Investments CEO Leah Wald. "This partnership with Nashville SC is such a natural fit for both of us, and is only part of our broader efforts to help establish Music City as a global hub for blockchain and digital assets."

As part of the partnership, the Premier Club, an 850-seat premium club located in Nashville SC's new stadium, will be renamed the Valkyrie Premier Club. The Valkyrie Premier Club has been sold out for nearly a year. In addition to the naming rights to this premium space, Valkyrie's logo will be featured on the sleeve of the team's training top.
