Yeah, basically ICO, subsidiary of CashBet buys a few million coins, photo of new Arsenal

shirt with the coin splashed across it. Everybody racing to buy it because of the legitimacy offered by Arsenal and the actual intended use of the coin in games, value shoots up about 1000% in a couple of days, CashBet subsidiary sells off coins to the value of the entire sponsorship deal, so Arsenal's sponsorship is covered. "Late" investors come flying in after reading it in the paper for a couple of days and finally get their accounts set up. They buy high, then some exchanges refuse to support the coins and it crashes dramatically, leaving CashBet loaded, Arsenal loaded and the punters financially ruined (if they were stupid enough to make large investments of course),

Or something like that
