Chiliz Inks Strategic Partnership with SBI Digital Asset Holdings to Introduce Fan Tokens in Japanese Market

by

As an analyst with a background in blockchain technology and experience in analyzing partnerships between traditional finance and Web3 companies, I see this strategic collaboration between Chiliz (CHZ) and SBI Digital Asset Holdings Co Ltd (SBI DAH) as a significant growth opportunity for both parties.

I, as an observer of the blockchain industry, can confirm that Chiliz, a prominent player in the field of sports and entertainment blockchain solutions, have recently unveiled a strategic alliance with SBI Digital Asset Holdings Co Ltd (SBI DAH). Based on the official statement, Chiliz and SBI DAH aim to set up a new joint venture in Japan. Their primary objective is to introduce fan tokens into the Japanese market.

Following this development, SBI Digital Asset Holdings (SBI DAH) will mark a first for Japanese enterprises as it takes on the role of a node operator on the Chiliz Chain. The ultimate objective for SBI DAH is to secure a share in the Chiliz Japan Joint Venture. Previously reported by Coinspeaker, SBI Japan has been collaborating with other blockchain companies, spearheaded by Ripple Labs.

Based on the statement made by Fernando Luis Vázquez Cao, the CEO of SBI DAH, this partnership with Chiliz signifies their dedication towards integrating web3 technology into their future endeavors.

As a crypto investor, I’m thrilled to be part of this technological revolution, and I’m excited to share new offerings with our Japanese community through our collaboration with Chiliz. This partnership between SBI DAH and Chiliz will merge the top-tier expertise of traditional finance and Web3 worlds. We’ll harness fintech innovations to redefine sports and entertainment experiences for our passionate communities.

As a researcher studying the latest developments in the world of blockchain and sports industry collaborations, I came across Alexandre Dreyfus’s perspective as the CEO of Chiliz. He expressed his belief that our partnership would significantly broaden the reach of fan tokens, with a particular focus on expanding their usage in Japan.

“Dreyfus noted, ‘Japan boasts a highly innovative and cutting-edge developer community that we’re thrilled to collaborate with SBI in supporting. Our goal is to equip these developers with the necessary Web3 infrastructure and tools to spearhead the next wave of sports entertainment innovations.'”

Market Picture of Chiliz and SBI DAH’s Partnership

As a researcher, I’ve uncovered an exciting development in the crypto space: the collaboration between SBI Digital Asset Holdings (SBI DAH) and Chiliz. Based on current market figures, CHZ, the altcoin and fan tokens issued by Chiliz, held a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of approximately $1 billion and an average daily trading volume of around $92 million when I last checked. This partnership is expected to bring significant growth opportunities for CHZ and its associated fan tokens.

Over 70 sports teams, including Manchester City, Arsenal, UFC, Juventus, AC Milan, and PSG, have joined Socios. Consequently, the fan tokens based on Chiliz recorded a total trading volume exceeding $300 million.

As a crypto investor, I can tell you that Chiliz fan tokens have expanded their reach and are now tradable on over 20 different cryptocurrency exchanges outside of the Chiliz platform itself.

According to Coinspeaker’s report, the Japanese government has implemented stringent regulations to foster a secure environment for the use of digital assets and web3 technologies. This regulatory climate has attracted an increasing number of global Web3 companies to develop crypto-centric projects in Japan, responding to growing interest from both individual investors and institutional backers.

An additional factor fueling the surge in interest for digital assets among Asian investors is the recent authorization of Bitcoin and Ethereum Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) in Hong Kong.
