FAQ - your questions, our answers.
What exactly is a "Sports Performance Asset"?
A Sports Performance Asset (SPA) is a digital asset whose value is directly linked to the real-life performance of a sports team.
Instead of betting on match outcomes or odds, an SPA allows you to trade a team’s performance over time, similar to how financial markets price companies based on their real-world results.
Each asset reflects:
- Match performance
- Team prestige
- Competition prestige
- Token supply and demand
When a team performs well, the asset tends to increase in value.
When performance declines, the team price may adjust accordingly.
In short terms:
A Sports Performance Asset turns real sports performance into a tradable, data-driven asset. Without bets, odds, or a “house” profiting when you lose.
It’s a completely new way to engage with sports:
not gambling, not fantasy but a performance-based market you can trade in real time.
How does the price of a club asset move?
The price of a Sports Performance Asset (SPA) changes dynamically based on a combination of real-world sports performance and market activity.
Four key factors drive the value:
– Match Performance
Live match events influence the clubs asset´s value.
Strong performance (like a win or even a draw angainst a stronger opponent) can increase the value, while poor performance may reduce it.
– Team Prestige
Clubs with a strong historical success tend to attract more interest.
This creates a baseline valuation similar to how well-known companies often have higher market capitalization.
– Competition Prestige
Performance in higher-level competitions (e.g., Bundesliga vs cup matches) carries more weight.
Strong results in prestigious competitions can have a greater positive impact on club value.
– Market Supply & Demand
Like any traded asset, asset prices also react to trader behavior:
- If more people buy a club asset → price tends to increase
- If more people sell → price may decrease
This makes SPAs real markets, driven by both sports data and user sentiment.
In short terms:
An SPA’s price reflects a blend of real match performance, team and competition prestige, and the supply and-demand dynamics of the market.
It is not based on betting odds, the value moves continuously as performance and market behavior change.
How is Minotoro different from betting?
Sports Performance Asstes (SPAs) function fundamentally differently from wagers or odds-based gambling.
Here are the key differences:
– No odds. No bets. No fixed outcomes.
Betting is based on predicting a single outcome (win/lose/draw).
With SPAs, you are not betting on a result, you are trading a performance-based asset whose value moves continuously over time.
– You can trade anytime not just before a match
In betting, once a match starts, your bet is locked.
With SPAs, you can:
- Buy before the match
- Buy during the match
- Sell mid-match
- Hold long-term
It behaves like a dynamic market, not a wager.
– You don’t lose because “the house” wins
Bookmakers make money when bettors lose.
Minotoro does not take a position against users, you trade directly in a market driven by supply and demand.
There is no house edge.
– Value is based on performance and market activity, not bookmaker odds
SPA prices reflect:
- Match performance
- Team and competition prestige
- User buying and selling activity
There are no odds setting, no handicaps, and no hidden margins.
– You can exit your position anytime
In betting, once the outcome is decided, the bet is either lost or won.
With SPAs:
- You can sell anytime
- You can secure profits early
- You can cut losses early
- You can hold long-term if you believe in a team’s future performance
This flexibility makes it closer to trading than gambling.
– Designed as a new asset class, not a gambling product
Minotoro is built to operate under German Financial Regulator (BaFin) acceptance, not gambling law.
SPAs are performance-based digital assets, not wagers.
In short terms:
Betting is predicting a result once.
SPAs are trading team performance over time.
This shift removes the house advantage and creates a transparent, data-driven way to engage with sports.
Are Sports Performance Assets legal?
Yes. Sports Performance Assets (SPAs) are legal digital assets, and Minotoro is designing them to operate fully within the regulatory frameworks and approval of German Financial Authorities (BaFin).
SPAs are not wagers, not bets, and not gambling products.
Their value is based on performance and market activity, not odds or chance.
As we prepare for launch in Germany, we are:
- Following BaFin guidelines for digital asset products
- Structuring SPAs in a transparent, non-gambling, performance-based way
- Building the operational processes expected for regulated services
This ensures Minotoro evolves in full compliance as the regulatory landscape continues to mature.
When you trade an SPA, you are trading a market-driven digital asset, not a gambling position.
You can buy, sell, or hold at any time unlike a bet that is locked until a match ends.
In short terms:
Sports Performance Assets are legal digital assets built to comply with German Financial Authorities regulations. Minotoro is not a gambling platform, and SPAs are not bets or wagers.
We take regulatory compliance seriously and will continue evolving the platform in alignment with European financial and digital asset standards.
Which teams are available on the platform?
For our Demo soft launch in alignment with the 2026/27 season, Minotoro will offer all German first division teams.
This allows us to test the market, refine the performance model, and gather user feedback with one of the world’s most data-rich football leagues.
We are starting here because:
- It provides high-quality data
- German fans are highly engaged
- It’s a strong foundation for regulatory clarity
- It allows us to scale the model in a controlled environment
Mid-term (Post-launch):
As the platform grows, we plan to expand to other major football leagues, with priority areas such as:
- Premier League
- La Liga
- Serie A
- Champions League
This expansion will depend on:
- Market demand
- Data availability
- Regulatory requirements
- Trading activity and liquidity
Long-term vision: All leagues. All brands. All sports.
Minotoro is built as a universal sports performance asset infrastructure.
Our long-term goal is to enable trading on:
All major football leagues worldwide
…and beyond football:
Tennis, Basketball, American Football, Formula 1, Esports, and more
If a team or brand generates performance data, it can become a tradable performance asset on Minotoro.
In short terms:
Demo App: All Bundesliga teams.
Future: Every major league.
Vision: All brands. All sports. Worldwide.
Do I have to invest real money for the demo app?
No. In demo mode users do not use their own money.
During this phase, all trading happens with virtual balances, not real funds.
This allows you to experience the platform exactly as it will function after launch, without any financial risk.
Why we use virtual balances during testing:
– Zero risk for testers
You can explore trading, try strategies, and learn the system without depositing any money.
– Pure product feedback
We want to understand how users interact with Minotoro — without real-money pressure affecting behavior.
– Fair and safe environment
Early versions are for testing, improving performance, and validating pricing logic, not for live financial results.
– Helps refine assets mechanics
By using virtual balances, we can simulate:
- Realistic price movements
- Market dynamics
- Team performance effects
- Different user trading styles
This helps us optimize the system before real assets are introduced.
What happens after testing?
When the platform leaves the demo phase and enters public launch:
- Real-money trading will be introduced
- Users will be able to deposit, trade, and withdraw funds
- Full regulatory alignment within BaFin requirements
In short terms:
Demo users only trade virtual money. No deposits. No real financial risk.
Your feedback, not your wallet, drives the demo phase.
When will the platform go live?
Our goal is to launch the full Minotoro platform for the start of the Bundesliga season 27/28.
This timing ensures we enter the market when fan engagement and team performance cycles naturally restart.
However, the exact launch date depends on regulatory and technical feasability.
Why the launch also depends on demo user feedback
We want Minotoro to be:
- Reliable
- Intuitive
- Fair
- Transparent
- Ready for real trading activity
To achieve that, we use the demo phase to validate and refine:
- Asset price mechanics
- User experience
- Performance data integration
- Market behavior under real conditions
- Regulatory alignment
- Platform stability
We will only launch the real-money version when the product meets the quality and safety standards required for a new financial asset class.
Target timeline
- Demo version: Start of season 26/27
- Platform refinements: Based on user insights
- Full launch: Planned for the start of the season 27/28
If user feedback shows the product is ready earlier, we may accelerate.
If additional refinement is needed, we will prioritize safety, transparency, and user protection before going live.
In short terms:
We aim to launch for the 27/28 season but only once authorities and users confirm the platform is ready for real-money trading.
This ensures we deliver the best possible experience from day one.
