Today London-based startup Fantastec announced that Real Madrid has joined the
Fantastec SWAP digital collectibles blockchain platform. The SWAP app aims to enable fans to trade licensed collectible cards.
Arsenal and
Borussia Dortmund were already signed up to the platform.
Blockchain is mainly used to authenticate player autographs and content. The app also includes exclusive football videos. The company spent just over a million pounds ($1.3m) buying OTT video on demand company Colony.
“Fantastec has developed a new approach for fans to engage in more valuable relationships with the teams and players they love, rewarding their activity in the app, and empowering them to own a genuine share of a club’s history – timestamped and safely protected on the blockchain,” said Simon Woollard Fantastec Product Partner.
