Key Takeaways:

  • FIFA leaves Algorand, develops own EVM blockchain.
  • Partnership ends May 2025.
  • Shift affects Algorand’s market activity.


FIFA to Launch Own Blockchain for NFTs

This event underscores FIFA’s pursuit of greater control over its digital ecosystem, aiming to enhance NFTs’ performance and scalability.

FIFA’s New Blockchain Strategy

FIFA is launching its own EVM-compatible blockchain for digital collectibles. Previously, Algorand hosted FIFA’s NFT activities under their partnership established in 2022. This marks a notable shift in FIFA’s blockchain strategy. The upcoming blockchain, dubbed “FIFA Blockchain”, aims to house FIFA Collect, increasing both performance and scalability.

The migration impacts holders of FIFA NFTs, who will see their assets moved to the new platform unless manually delisted. This transition represents a significant change for Algorand, potentially reducing its NFT transaction volume, given FIFA’s large-scale migration. By starting May 2025, wallet support will transition from Algorand-based Pera and Defly to EVM wallets like MetaMask.

The broader implications of this move include expected shifts in market activity within the Ethereum ecosystem. Since FIFA’s new blockchain is EVM-compatible, increased trading and integration opportunities could be anticipated for EVM-based assets. Historically, such migrations from lesser-known to EVM-compatible blockchains have led to shifts in transaction volumes.

The expected transition comes with minimal regulatory comment, with no public statements from financial watchdogs. Community sentiments are positive, supported by FIFA’s promises of guidance and a clear roadmap. “Easy, step-by-step instructions will be released nearer to the migration date to ensure smooth migration for all holders of NFTs,” FIFA stated. The introduction of EVM support comprises an essential development, with the potential for FIFA to launch its own utility token on the new platform.
