This is the way we want to nurture new users on our platform,” said Haider Rafique, OKX’s Global Chief Marketing Officer. </p><p>“Our partnership with Man City has provided a great platform through which we have the opportunity to educate those curious about crypto and offer those already involved the training they need to participate responsibly.” </p>Another Major Sports Sponsorship Deal <p>Though none of the two parties officially revealed the deal's financial terms, Forbes reported that the extended sponsorship agreement is costing the crypto exchange more than $20 million this gaming season. </p><p>OKX first entered into a sponsorship deal with English football in March. Then they inked a multi-year deal, giving OKX the status of Manchester City’s official cryptocurrency partner. </p><p>“We are pleased to expand our relationship with OKX today,” said City Football Group’s Chief Operating Officer, Roel de Vries. “Since the initial partnership began in March 2022, we have worked together to ‘supercharge the fan experience’ through a number of exciting content activations ahead of high-profile fixtures during the culmination of the 2021/22 season, and we look forward to continuing to develop these opportunities over the coming year.” </p><p>The sponsorship came when the cryptocurrency market was witnessing a plunge, dragging Bitcoin’s price to $20,000.
