The football season has started some time ago, and along with this also the side competitions, such as the Esports championships and fantasy football.
There are dozens of platforms for fantasy football, but Sorare has also been online for about 1 year, a unique platform of its kind.
Sorare is an Ethereum blockchain-based NFT trading card marketplace where they can buy and sell players from various world leagues and earn rewards based on your score on the leaderboard.
The user can create different formations with the cards owned, participating in different competitions such as the Global Under 23, the Champions League or the one dedicated only to rare cards.
The player's performance in the real world, which influences the scores in the platform, is that provided by Opta, the sports data provider that has also recently acquired the Italian startup Wyscout.
Sorare today has thousands of users and has generated millions of euros in turnover.
"Most of our users are football managers or fantasy football players, so most of them buy [the cards] with a credit card",
comments Nicolas Julia, founder of Sorare.
The cards can also be purchased with cryptocurrencies, by connecting Coinbase, METAMASK or other compatible wallets.
The transactions of the trades in the market of the players and the characteristics of the cards are registered on the Ethereum network, and this guarantees the uniqueness and transparency of the operations and the history of each card.
"One of the ambitions of this game is to create a mass product that plus the advantages offered by the blockchain, without naming the functionalities used",
continues Nicolas.
One of Sorare's strengths is the quantity of clubs and players it offers under license, with original coats of arms and faces: as regards the Italian clubs, Juventus, Lazio, Napoli, Inter, Milan etc ... but some are announced. new every week.
You don't need to use a money deposit to get started, because basic team composition only requires community cards that don't come with a price.
In addition to earning based on performance influencing team scores, users can also sell improving player cards at a higher price, in either currency (euro) or cryptocurrency (Ether).
I leave my report in the description to receive 5 additional free cards!
