Crawley crypto owners re-affirm pledge to build worldwide following for League Two club

WAGMI United LLC completed their takeover of the Red Devils in April, declaring they would "shake up the status quo, try out some new ideas, and build a worldwide community of fans". The company are to use non-fungible tokens (NFTs) as an ownership model, allowing people across the world to make decisions on the club, while also generating valuable revenue streams. NFTs have no physical form but can be bought or sold.
