Fandom Sports Teams with Polygon to Allow Fans Real-Time NFT Creation

By: Newsfile

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 14, 2021) - Fandom Sports Media Corp. (CSE: FDM) (OTCQB: FDMSF) (FSE: TQ43) ("Fandom Sports" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that it has entered into a technology partnership with cryptocurrency platform Polygon, with the aim of supporting efficient and scalable NFT minting on Fandom Sports' www.fandomart.com ("FANDOMART") NFT marketplace.

Launching in Q1 2022, FANDOMART will reside as a module within the Company’s fan engagement and wagering ecosystem (“UIA Platform''). Players on the Fandom UIA Platform will be able to watch their favorite streamed content, make predictions and wagers against their friends or the global community as well as to create NFTs on the fly. Players can capture multiple moments from their favourite event to create an NFT from all the while continuing to watching their stream or broadcasted content while enjoying new levels of fan engagement.

FANDOMART will be a branch of the Fandom UIA platform, a place where users can mint, buy and sell their own NFTs. The service intends to support numerous minting protocols, as well as interoperability with other exchanges. In order to see this vision become a reality, Fandom needed to leverage a blockchain that was at the same time fast, inexpensive and of course secure. Many existing NFT platforms use Ethereum, but the reality is that Ethereum is too costly and slow in its current form for mass adoption. This is why Fandom Sports decided to launch its NFT Marketplace on Polygon's layer 2 ethereum scaling protocol.

Polygon, formerly known as Matic, is a blockchain framework, known as a "side chain," that builds and connects Ethereum-compatible blockchain networks. It is designed to regulate an environment where a whole ecosystem of blockchains no longer function as closed-off silos but instead as part of a wider interconnected spectrum. The Polygon network is much, much faster than Ethereum, and network fees are generally just pennies.

It also doesn't hurt that Polygon already works with most of today's top blockchain-based Web 3.0 games and NFT projects, including Decentraland, Opensea and The Sandbox, and has 6x more gaming and NFT Dapps than any other blockchain outside of Ethereum. This means that Fandom's vision for real-time NFT creation, and trade, becomes very possible through this partnership.

David Vinokurov, CEO and President Fandom Sports, said: "Our timely connection with the team at Polygon satisfies numerous ongoing initiatives for Fandom Sports. Having an industry leading blockchain protocol partner with the technical reach and marketing scope of Polygon will give the Company the ability to capitalize on the Company's NFT on the Fly solution by deploying with top tier esports and sports organizations. Our goal to facilitate the mass creation of NFT from players' favourite streamed content providers will provide for new revenue streams for our partners, increased engagement for our players and new opportunities to interact with fans globally."
