Chiliz

Summary:

  • The blockchain-powered sports fan token launched its own layer 1 decentralized network on Tuesday.
  • Chiliz’s L1 chain is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine program, allowing developers to broadcast smart contract codes on Ethereum’s blockchain.
  • The protocol’s token CHZ pumped as high as 20% on the news.

Blockchain sports coin Chiliz announced the launch of its brand new layer 1 decentralized chain aimed at driving growth around non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and on-chain gaming tied to reach world sports franchises.&

A blog post released on Tuesday noted that Chiliz validated the genesis block of its blockchain to mark the company’s fifth (5th) anniversary. The new chain functions as a layer 1 network using Proof of Stake Authority (PoSA) consensus. There are currently 11 validators on the blockchain and they are all allowed to deploy smart contracts on the network.&

Also, the PoSA blockchain from Chiliz supports a popular program known as the Ethereum Virtual Machine or EVM. EVM acts as a run-time development area that allows on-chain builders to design decentralized applications (dapps) and launch these dapps on Ethereum’s blockchain as smart contracts.&

This means that CHZ developers will able to build and run dapps on Ethereum since the Chiliz blockchain is EVM-compatible. The CHZ token will power interaction on the blockchain and provider holders with staking rewards via the Socios platform, the blog post said. 

Chiliz native token $CHZ will be the fuel for the entire Chiliz Blockchain ecosystem, including all the dApps that will be built on top of it. $CHZ token holders will also be able to receive rewards for staking (delegating) on the network.

CHZ’s market cap was over $1.1 billion when this report was written. The Chiliz token also had a daily trading volume above $683 million across available markets.&

Since launching in 2018, the blockchain-based company has sought to bridge the gap between on-chain technology and sports fan interaction. The CHZ token allows sports fans to hold assets linked to real-world teams across sports industries like the major European football leagues in Spain, France, and Italy to name a few.

As part of its latest rebrand and new blockchain, Chiliz will onboard as many as 10 start-ups. These entities will head ventures like NFT ticketing, Watch2Earn sports events, and Play2Earn games.&
