Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and Inter Milan's (INTER) advancement to the UEFA Champions League final significantly boosted both clubs' fan token prices. Given the nature of fan tokens to react sensitively to match outcomes, additional price volatility following the final is also expected.

According to Finbold, PSG fan tokens have increased by approximately 61%, from a market cap of $16 million as of April 27 to the current $25.75 million, and the price has surged by over 35% to $2.80 during the same period. PSG advanced to the final stage by defeating Arsenal 3-1 in the semi-final, which directly catalyzed the rise in fan tokens. This final entry is the second since 2020, and the fans' anticipation is fully reflected in the price.

Inter Milan fan tokens are also showing a similar trend. INTER has risen by nearly 50% over the past month, currently trading at $1.31, with a market cap of approximately $12.15 million. The advancement of both teams to the Champions League final has led to global fandom interest spilling over into the token market.

The upcoming final will be held in Munich and is attracting international attention, as it is the first confrontation excluding English, Spanish, and German clubs since 2004. As a result, there is speculation that the transaction volume and demand for fan tokens may increase further in the short term.

However, fan tokens often experience sharp price adjustments depending on match outcomes. Especially if a team ends up as the runner-up after the final or if it coincides with a general downward trend in the cryptocurrency market, they may face downward pressure, necessitating cautious approaches from investors.
