The upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup is projected to significantly increase global daily token consumption, with estimates suggesting it could reach 16 trillion tokens related to the event. This surge is part of a broader trend, as global daily token consumption is expected to rise to approximately 535 trillion during the tournament, compared to 200 trillion earlier this year. The tournament, starting in June, is anticipated to be the most AI-intensive World Cup to date, driving substantial demand for digital tokens.
