79 Switzerland’s gambling authority, Gespa, has opened an inquiry into FIFA’s non-fungible token (NFT) program for the 2026 World Cup, examining whether it may conflict with national gambling laws. At the center of the review are FIFA’s “Right-to-Buy” (RTB) tokens — NFTs that grant holders the conditional right to purchase match tickets if specific teams qualify.
