Will FIFA pay World Cup prize money in Bitcoin by 2026?

Prize money was $440M last World Cup. All fiat.

If FIFA put even 10% in BTC like MicroStrategy, that’s $44M of buy pressure.

Imagine France wins and has to hold BTC on their books. Every other FA would have to follow.

Questions:

  1. Too early or inevitable that FIFA adds BTC?
  2. Which country would be first to demand BTC payouts?
  3. Would this make countries "HODL" their prize money instead of spending it?
