In addition to the two main drops, a special limited collection of 7 SSR NFTs will be available later in June. Designed by local artist Mr. Dheo, these NFTs pay homage to Ronaldo’s dedication to Portugal. They will be sold via an online auction from June 14 to 18. Super fans who collect all NFTs in the Drop 2 collection can win one of the SSR NFTs for free by participating in a quiz starting on June 11.

The NFTs are priced at $35 (USD) each, except for the limited SSR NFTs. The collection introduces a ‘Collect to Earn’ mechanism, allowing collectors to earn rewards from their first purchase. Rewards include vintage jerseys, football tickets, signed posters, and the chance to ask Ronaldo questions in a special video.

Holders of the SSR Portugal NFTs will get an exclusive experience with Ronaldo. This includes a trip to Riyadh, a football game ticket, and a personalized goal celebration moment with Ronaldo. Collectors can join the auction on June 14 to bid for this SSR NFT. Users who collect all six other NFT locations and win the SSR Portugal NFT in the quiz will also be part of this experience.
