FIFA to Build Its Own Blockchain on Avalanche

The World Football Association will build its own Level 1 blockchain on Avalanche technology. This is a continuation of the development that began in 2022 with the FIFA World Cup Qatar $NFT collection on Algorand. The new Avalanche L1 blockchain is being developed as an independent, powerful, and customizable blockchain based on the Avalanche ecosystem.

Avalanche is known for its high speed, low fees, and modular scalability — qualities that are critical for large organizations like FIFA. Avalanche has just completed the “Avalanche9000” upgrade, which is designed to attract new developers and make it easier to create custom blockchains.

FIFA has not announced any specific projects beyond NFTs, but the move to its own blockchain offers hope for further development. In addition to digital collectibles, the new platform could in the future directly display tickets, fan rewards systems, real-time statistics, or even fantasy leagues, all in a Web3 environment that provides users with true digital property rights.
