Today, the Turkish Super League's champion is being decided, and the winner is clear based on current match scores. Galatasaray has secured their championship by leading 3-0 up to the 75th minute, leaving Fenerbahçe with little chance. This victory has sparked increased interest in certain altcoins among Turkish investors.

Galatasaray Fan Token Soars

With Galatasaray on the verge of winning the Super League, the value of the Galatasaray Fan Token (GALF) has surged. The token, representing the team’s 24th championship, reached a high of $7.85 today, a level last seen in late November 2021. However, this peak was short-lived, with the price dropping below the critical $5 mark as investors took profits once the championship was certain.

In Turkish Lira (TRY), the Galatasaray Fan Token traded at 123 liras, showing an 18% gain over 24 hours. Over the past 30 days, the token has risen by 44%. Turkish crypto enthusiasts preferred GALF Coin over Bitcoin and Tether on local exchanges, driving its trading volume to 4.8 billion TL, surpassing the combined volumes of TETHER and PEPE.

Altcoins Favored by Turkish Investors

Turkish crypto investors often follow local trends closely, resulting in different rankings compared to global volume charts. According to the site 21milyon.com, which tracks local exchange volumes, Galatasaray’s championship bid has propelled the token to the top spot. The total trading volume on local exchanges reached 25 billion TL, comparable to Turkey’s traditional stock market, BIST100.

The list of popular cryptocurrencies shows Bitcoin not even making the top three due to its lack of weekend volatility. Instead, fan tokens, particularly CHZ, dominate the list, with PEPE Coin in second place due to its frequent new all-time high attempts.

In conclusion, Galatasaray’s championship win has not only thrilled fans but also significantly boosted the interest and trading volume of the Galatasaray Fan Token and other altcoins among Turkish investors. This event underscores the strong connection between local sports achievements and the crypto market in Turkey.
