GAL is the official fan token of Turkey’s Galatasaray Sports Club. It was offered to fans via the Chiliz’s exchange, a sports tokenisation platform. Fan tokens are built on blockchain technology. Ownership is authenticated by a blockchain network.

GAL are ERC-20 utility tokens, which means they use the Ethereum blockchain for authentication, ownership, transaction and voting records. This makes the GAL token secure and verifiable. 

Although fan tokens may not be used to purchase goods, they can be exchanged with Socios fan token holders on the publicly-accessible crypto-token market.

Students of Galatasaray Lycee in Istanbul’s Beyoglu area founded the Galatasaray Sports Club in 1905. In 2020, the club launched GAL in partnership with blockchain sports fan start-up Socios. It’s based on the Chiliz exchange.

The difference between trading assets and CFDs
The main difference between CFD trading and trading assets, such as commodities and stocks, is that you don’t own the underlying asset when you trade on a CFD.
You can still benefit if the market moves in your favour, or make a loss if it moves against you. However, with traditional trading you enter a contract to exchange the legal ownership of the individual shares or the commodities for money, and you own this until you sell it again.
CFDs are leveraged products, which means that you only need to deposit a percentage of the full value of the CFD trade in order to open a position. But with traditional trading, you buy the assets for the full amount. In the UK, there is no stamp duty on CFD trading, but there is when you buy stocks, for example.
CFDs attract overnight costs to hold the trades (unless you use 1-1 leverage), which makes them more suited to short-term trading opportunities. Stocks and commodities are more normally bought and held for longer. You might also pay a broker commission or fees when buying and selling assets direct and you’d need somewhere to store them safely.
