Global football federation FIFA announced today that it has teamed up with Avalanche to build its own blockchain.
The Federation Internationale de Football Association’s FIFA Blockchain will be an Avalanche L1 blockchain – previously called subnets – built using the Avalanche network’s scalability-focused technology. The blockchain will host FIFA’s existing NFT collection, which will be ported over from Algorand and Polygon. It will also be dedicated to providing fan experiences.
In a blog post, Avalanche said that its technology would allow the FIFA blockchain to function even under the weight of a World Cup, when the sport’s five billion fans tune in.
