As we mark the 6th anniversary of Chiliz, it’s a celebration of more than just a milestone; it’s a testament to the amazing community that we’ve built along the way.

A journey of impact

Six years ago, Chiliz embarked on a mission to transform fan engagement by bridging the gap between sports enthusiasts and their favorite teams through blockchain.

Today, we stand at the forefront of the SportFi movement, having cultivated a vibrant ecosystem with more than 75 of the world’s major sports teams engage their fans via Fan Tokens. There are over 1.9 million wallet addresses on the Chiliz Chain, 11+ million transactions, and users from 225 countries.

This global embrace of our platform is a testament to our utility, official partnerships, and the collective adoption of our vision, culminating in a SportFi market cap exceeding 1 billion dollars.

Fan Tokens: The transformative tool at Chiliz’s core

Fan Tokens have been the force behind Chiliz’s mission, marking the beginning of our journey to increase fan engagement. These digital assets have empowered fans by offering them a plethora of sports-related rewards.

They’ve also been a gateway for over 60.8% of our community to venture into crypto for the first time, breaking barriers and fostering widespread adoption.

Socios.com: The home of fandom

Socios.com stands as the number one sports Fan Rewards app worldwide. It’s not just a platform; it’s a global community where fans have received countless rewards and cast over 18 million votes in sports polls, showcasing the real-world impact and decision-making power vested in the hands of fans.
