Web3 in France: Emmanuel Macron rolls out the red carpet in Sorare?

Emmanuel Macron’s last trip to the United States has paid off, according to Nicolas Julia, CEO and co-founder of Sorare. ” It was striking to see the image of France which changed in the eyes of American investors. “, he commented. However, the crypto and Web3 community believes that France is lagging far behind in terms of technological innovation. To make up for lost time, Sorare reaches out to the Élysée.

Sorare wins the favor of the Elysée

France is preparing the technology giants of tomorrow. Our President, our government have changed the rules of the game to trigger a wave that will promote the creation of 100,000 jobs and tremendous value creation. Web3 and sports will lead the way. I had the honor of discussing it with Emmanuel Macron. »

Emmanuel Macron’s state visit to the country of Uncle Sam saw three successes, reports Le Figaro. It was probably with the aim of perpetuating the positive vibes of the trip that he agreed to meet Nicolas Julia at the Élysée.

However, 4 months ago, France, through the National Gaming Authority, saw this NFT seller as a financial offender. Why this sudden reversal? Sorare’s performance in the middle of the bear market, its global notoriety and its loyalty policy based on cryptocurrencies must certainly have something to do with it.

In any case, the description of the meeting by the CEO of Sorare refers to new perspectives for Web3 in France. For him, the road seems already drawn, and this with the support of the leaders. There is no doubt that the Web 3.0 boom will come with the help of athletes and sports enthusiasts.

Below is a (slightly ironic) transcript of the 2-hour exchange between Emmanuel Macron and Nicolas Julia shared by Sorare Stats. Inside, there is nothing very striking apart from the ignorance of the President of Sorare and his activities.

In fact, this week, the EU is planning to issue guidelines regarding the cryptocurrency regulatory vacuum across its territory. If Emmanuel Macron discussed this aspect with Nicolas Julia, no one knows. However, with the financial windfall represented by taxes on cryptos, the President of the Republic would have asked one or two questions to the CEO of Sorare.
