The sports-centric blockchain platform Chiliz is broadening its reach by introducing its extensive range of fan tokens to Solana and Base, an Ethereum layer-2 network developed by Coinbase. Initially, Chiliz launched its own layer-1 network in 2023 for token trading but is now adopting an omnichain distribution strategy. This approach, as announced on X, enables fan tokens to exist uniformly across supported chains, eliminating the need for token wrapping or fragmented liquidity.
As a result, fan engagement is expected to increase, particularly with the upcoming FIFA World Cup, where tokens representing various teams, including Argentina and Portugal, will be available for trading, offering fans exclusive rewards and voting privileges.
