NBA 76ers joins fan token platform Socios
Socios, the blockchain-based platform responsible for tokenizing many popular sports franchises, has said the Philadelphia 76ers basketball team will be joining its roster.
Socios said as part of the partnership the 76ers, will integrate branding from the fan token site across the physical and digital space. The platform will appear on screens in the team’s home venue, the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, as well as on its website and social media.
Alexandre Dreyfus, CEO of Socios and blockchain-based sports platform Chiliz, said this was the first time the platform had partnered with a National Basketball Association franchise. He hinted basketball fans might see fan tokens for the Sixers as part of the firm’s goal of “transitioning passive fans into active fans.”
