I've been keeping up with this project for quite some time! Basically, ChiliZ is set to disrupt the Gaming & Esports industry. They've already pretty much secured two partnership with two major Football Clubs, PSG & Juventus - These Clubs plan to have a tradeable Fan token ; by lauching their own Fan Token Offering (FTO).
Socios will be the main app to be powered by ChiliZ
ChiliZ project headquarters is located at the Blockchain Campus in Malta, this their main office however they've got more ambitious goals of establishing a startup-accelerator hub and are keen on collaborating with existing Blockchain companies & services.
What is interesting is that ChiliZ's team plan of dedicating part of their office for the incubator program focused on helping Blockchain startups. They envision a future where the Campus will in-house world-leading starupts, crypto exchanges, marketing agencies, and service providers.

There is a lot of development despite the current bear market, but it's good to see the ChiliZ's team busy at establishing real partnerships with existing Clubs that will help them along the way. By collaborating with professional Clubs, Socios will likely have millions of eager gamers & sports enthusiasts as their initial on-boarding fans (rather than just Cryptocurrency investors) once the platform goes live.
There is real potential use-case for utilizing this disruptive technology especially for the E-sports industry, for now I hope to see more big club joining in on this trend,of lauching their own Fan tokens to be used for community driven voting, its good to see Club caring about the audience & their biggest fans
