MonkeyBall is a Solana-based Play-to-Earn eSports game blending FIFA Street and Final Fantasy elements. It's part of a growing trend of football-themed blockchain games like MetaFooty and GuardiansOfTheBallToken, offering immersive experiences with fantasy tournaments, player customization, and opportunities to earn rewards. These projects often feature NFTs, staking mechanisms, and connections with football figures or charities, like FootballBet Fair Launch's ties to Ronaldinho R10 and Instituto Neymar Jr. Many are audited for security and listed on platforms like CoinMarketCap.
