Podcasts about fanchain

For his regular weekly brief, Jonathan Keim, Director of Communications at CryptoCurrencyWire, had another trio of fascinating developments to report. He started with the news that ‘FanWide Brings FanChain Crypto to 10,000 Sports Bars Across the United States'. SportsCastr, the live streaming company backed by the NFL Players Association, recently announced the launch of its FanChain cryptocurrency on FanWide, a platform that helps fans find local game-watch parties for their favorite teams. As part of the launch, sports fans can now earn FanChain tokens, known as ‘FANZ', for checking into viewing parties at thousands of sports bars across the U.S. The tokens can be redeemed for cash through SportsCastr's FanWallet (http://ccw.fm/R6uvZ). In other news, Grayscale has reported another record year. Grayscale, the world's largest crypto management firm, took in a record $607 million of investment in 2019, more than its total inflows over the past six years (http://ccw.fm/0k0QG). Finally, the news that ‘Bakkt's consumer app is coming in 2020, and it'll look more like PayPal than Coinbase' should bring cheer to the crypto community. Bakkt's consumer app will consider any form of value that is digital as digital assets, including cryptocurrencies like bitcoin. This means that the app could also support virtual goods such as loyalty reward points and equities. The possible inclusion of equity trading, a portal for merchants and a wide array of other assets would make the app closer in nature to a traditional fintech product like PayPal than a crypto-native offering that allows retailers to accept bitcoin, like Flexa (http://ccw.fm/C2d1G).

On today's podcast, Mark sits down with Nick Schupak from Sportcastr, a tokenized live-action streaming service that uses FANCHAIN to reward fans for sports consumption. In June 2018, SportsCastr announced FanChain: Its cryptocurrency and decentralized sports entertainment ecosystem developed to meet the unique needs of SportsCastr users and the global sports market. The FanChain token is ERC20-compliant while harnessing ERC-721-style characteristics. This innovation allows team-affinity to be embedded within individual tokens when used within the FanChain ecosystem, while maintaining its fungibility within the broader cryptocurrency landscape. SportsCastr is the first platform to support FanChain, but its decentralized architecture allows for third-parties (such as teams, leagues and sports-media) to join and grow the FanChain ecosystem. https://sportscastr.com http://fanchain.com Check out our miners on Indiegogo! http://bit.ly/49ERIndiegogo --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cryptoconomy/message

The digital transformation of sports continues to take shape As NFL embraces blockchain with the latest SportsCastr and FanChain deal.  SportsCastr, a live-streaming platform that allows anyone to become a color commentator, announced today that the NFL Players Association (NFLPA), via its athlete-driven accelerator the OneTeam Collective, has acquired a minority stake in the company to power live, interactive video content for fans. Through this partnership, active and former NFL players will use SportsCastr to provide live commentary across a wide range of professional and collegiate sports, share personal insights, and more. ACE Media, the NFLPA’s content, and production arm, will collaborate with SportsCastr to produce NFL player and other athlete-driven content featured on the SportsCastr platform. In June, SportsCastr announced FanChain, a cryptocurrency developed for the multi-billion-dollar global sports market. FanChain allows SportsCastr users to earn tokens for participating on the platform, and those tokens can then be used to unlock premium NFL player content (such as backstage access), purchase sports tickets or merchandise, and send virtual gifts to NFL players. Although SportsCastr is the first platform to support FanChain, the Company is working with teams, media publishers and leagues to add FanChain support, with the aim of making it the ubiquitous token within the sports industry. Nick Schupak is the Co-Founder and Vice President of Community at SportsCastr and shares more about information about the interactive live-streaming app; and FanChain, the cryptocurrency developed to connect the fragmented sports industry on today's tech podcast.
