The much-anticipated PAC token backed by boxing champion Manny Pacquiao will be available on the GCOX crypto exchange starting from Nov. 12. "The token has a variety of uses, as stated by Pacquaio in an email conversation with Cointelegraph: “PAC token can be used for several purposes, the token will enable fans of the politician and sports star to connect through the Acclaim! social app. Users will receive loyalty points that can then be redeemed for autographed merchandise, complimentary tickets to meet-and-greet events with Pacquiao, as well as multimedia content such as access to live streams and motivational videos." https://ct.com/80gn

No, I won't be buying any of this token. Despite what that press release says, there's no reason for it to exist and if its value as an investment depends on the continuing popularity of a boxer, you pretty much know it isn't going to hold any value in the long term.
There are way too many coins and tokens on the market, all of them being hyped extensively in the beginning, and the vast majority of them end up being worthless. This PAC token won't be any different, you'll see.

I’m a fan Manny but I will not buy this token, it sounds only like a vanity token to me and thats all. I’m just not fond of investing in crypto labelled by famous celebrities etc. There are a lot of good tokens aside from this one so I’ll skip it.

Just like the Dogecoin, I'll just trade it (buy low, sell high) if the trading volume is real and high enough, but I wouldn't consider this token for a long term hold because it's just riding on hype.

Alot of these dudes were told its a gold mine : / I agree with Pearls when he says longevity will be the real hurdle, whats a boxers career last, maybe 20 years? and how many could MANNY have left, MAYBE 10? What this might do tho is just make cryptocurrency more popularized, mass adoption helps all of us already in the scene imo

For cryptocurrency to be accepted properly and be adopted by the bigger population, it should be offering a product that solves a certain problem in the world, an innovative product that will give convenience and ease to people, or something that will disrupt the old way of doing things. With this token, there is none. I don't think the potential of this coin is great.

based on the article, the token purpose are: Among other things, the token will enable fans of the politician and sports star to connect through the Acclaim! social app. Users will receive loyalty points that can then be redeemed for autographed merchandise, complimentary tickets to meet-and-greet events with Pacquiao, as well as multimedia content such as access to live streams and motivational videos. those purpose are generic similiar with other projects, i know many project which have those purpose i think this token just makes Manny Pacquiao as a selling point, i think it wouldnt get attention from cryptocoiner

as long as this token is not stable tokens like the others, it will be nice to buy this at the early stage of its token sales. considering this tokens comes from trusted developers, they will not just dump it. I agree that this will not become like the other tokens that you can hold for long, If you know how to deal with this kind of tokens, you better buy it. Just don't forget to subscribe to know its price every day or weekly.

What is the use case of this coin then? I believe that they are going to run an IEO at gcox and they are offering 50% bonus on the first round and it is very hard to decide if this coin would be worth it cause you know it is like going to be hyped but not good for long term thing

Maybe the first thing that becomes my question is when Pacquiao has retired from boxing or even died, then what about the fate of the PAC token? Pacquiao's support will be hype for the PAC token, but this will have a time limit that will run out of popularity. I assume only Pacquiao fans and the local community will be attracted to this token.
I really appreciate Pacquiao's actions, because indirectly his support for PAC tokens has made many people know about crypto and blockchain, also using it.

May not really good for long term since it's purpose is for a community based celebrity fan platform which can be done now thru social media. I don't know why it's integrated to be in crypto space however since it can help them to support manny's foundations but in terms of trading or investing purposes it may not good.I'll just join the hype for trading if really gets some hype but not for long term. Let's see what that hype brings for all us and I don't think they won't put huge funds on this project if that won't prosper in the long run. Manny's foundation has been backed wih his wealthy friends whose anonymous for now, and I guess he's the number one in demand guy in terms of popularity. Not just with his humbleness as a sports oriented guy, but also for his well being as a reformed christian attitude. Right now, I am not yet planning to purchase on that coin, maybe after the month of November will be better due to good forecast in December.

I will not buy it because we are not in 2015 anymore this kind of token will not survive, what is the point of buying something that relies on hype instead of utility(utility in here is something that solves our problem in real life, not for an autograph)? even a utility token does not get much attention from the investors right now because of our current market.

It's a fan culture type of coin, and since Manny Pacquiao is not going to be a boxer and cannot sustain his popularity for a long time, I doubt it, it cannot sustain its long term goal or sustainability, it's good for a pump and dump coin but I have second thought on celebrity back coin, if the celebrity is on their peak but Manny cannot sustain within 5 years.

thats also my concern since Pacquiao is Getting older as days passed by,so what will happen when he died?this will be a commemorative currency?this is the question that must be answer i guess. There are way too many coins and tokens on the market, all of them being hyped extensively in the beginning, and the vast majority of them end up being worthless. This PAC token won't be any different, you'll see.
those are good points since this is just a celebrity tokens and will only be popular in a short span of time and after it will become like other currency that is being pumped before release and days after.

I'm a fan of Pacquiao but not with this coin. I don't think that we really need more of these personal coins that these celebrities are making. I see that the use case is all about the rewarding system just like any convenience store has.
I won't buy this coin, sorry.

Yes, we can just ride the hype specially it has the backing of Pacquiao. So after the hype, maybe this coins will just be another shitcoin in the market for all we know. But I'm not buying this coin either, even if I'm a fan of Manny here. I don't understand it's purpose in the first place, but then again as I have mentioned there could be hype, so for those who wanted to ride, good for you but you should be exiting on time because you don't want yourself to be trap.

But I don't know if there will be a good back up to maintain the phase but let see on how things go since I'm little bit excited for the news about the Pac token launching.

I thought that it was already released, anyways, as per their website: PAC Token (PAC) rides on the advantage of blockchain by transforming the popularity and brand of Manny Pacquiao into crypto tokens which are quantifiable and exchangeable. Millions of fans will now be able to get closer to their idol Manny Pacquiao by having access to his bespoke fan-celebrity programmes powered by GCOX. https://pactoken.io/I don't know how can you get closer with Manny here? And it's obviously the use case is center on Manny Pacquiao, but what will happen if he retires? Will his fans still support his tokens? I'm also a big fan of Manny Pacquiao but I don't know what the real purpose of him getting into crypto in the first place. I would love to see how will things turn out after the release and maybe if I get to understand it more, chances are I'm might join the bandwagon, just saying.

After seeing those benefits of this coin then i do already lost up my interest yet it isnt really that innovative but rather a useful thing for die hard fans of Pacquiao other than that i dont see any relevance or important uses but it isnt actually a bad option or risk to take yet this would give out some hype which is good for you to enter on earlier phase then dump after such price increase and dont ever come back.lol

Personally, it's hard to invest into something that only matters is the name that it's carrying, the main use case of the token is not yet been seen though the target fans who do understand crypto might be willing to take some risk but not the majorities. It will take time for this coin to build interest from wider communities, there's something unique that needs to offer for investors to follow and support this project.
