<a href="https://x.com/Chiliz" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Chiliz</a> Group, the world's leading blockchain provider for the sports and entertainment industry, has announced that Fan Tokens™ will launch on Solana and Base. As the first step in that rollout, <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24CHZ&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$CHZ</a> and <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24PEPPER&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$PEPPER</a> are now initially available on Solana via Meteora and <a href="https://x.com/JupiterExchange" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@JupiterExchange</a>, with <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24CHZ&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$CHZ</a> arriving through <a href="https://x.com/Sunrisedefi" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Sunrisedefi</a> as its day-one asset gateway.
The move, made possible through LayerZero's technology, brings Fan Tokens™ to the platforms and communities where a large proportion of crypto users are already active, expanding liquidity, distribution, and DeFi opportunities for the asset class. Users interacting with the integration on Solana can access <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24CHZ&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$CHZ</a> across platforms including <a href="https://x.com/JupiterExchange" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@JupiterExchange</a>, <a href="https://x.com/Phantom" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Phantom</a>, and <a href="https://x.com/Kamino_Swap" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Kamino_Swap</a>.

<a href="https://x.com/Chiliz" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Chiliz</a> Chain remains the purpose-built home of Fan Tokens™ — where governance happens and the underlying logic of the asset lives — while Solana and Base serve as the distribution layer, extending that infrastructure into the broader crypto economy via DeFi and multi-chain access. The two layers are designed to work in tandem rather than in competition.
The omnichain expansion is a cornerstone of Chiliz 2030, the company's recently published manifesto outlining a path to a $1 trillion opportunity at the intersection of sports and decentralised finance, under which Fan Tokens™ are entering a new phase of growth — one that goes beyond engagement and toward financial infrastructure for global sport.
<h2 id="buy-back-mechanic-and-world-cup-timing">Buy-Back Mechanic and World Cup Timing</h2>
Chiliz has confirmed that 10% of revenue generated from Fan Token™ sales across all supported chains will be allocated to <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24CHZ&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$CHZ</a> buy-back, permanently removing it from circulating supply. Rather than a one-time event, this burn mechanic is a structural commitment tied directly to activity generated by the omnichain expansion — meaning the more Fan Tokens trade across Solana and Base, the more <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24CHZ&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$CHZ</a> is removed from the market.
Ahead of the planned Fan Token™ launch in the United States, and in the lead-up to the FIFA World Cup, this expansion marks a strategic step toward broader distribution. It will give users access to both existing Fan Tokens™ from leading global sports brands across Europe, LATAM, and Asia, as well as upcoming U.S.-based Fan Tokens™ the company plans to announce later this year.
When <a href="https://x.com/Chiliz" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Chiliz</a> launched the first Fan Tokens™ in 2019, the concept was novel — blockchain-based digital assets giving sports fans a stake in club decisions. Over 70 Fan Token™ launches followed, and sports organisations received more than $700M in new income from a product category that simply didn't exist before. The Solana expansion marks the most significant structural shift in that history.
