Chiliz plans to re-enter US
Chiliz, a leading SportsFi project known for its fan tokens tied to major sports clubs like FC Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain, is gearing up for a bold return to the U.S. market.
After exiting in 2022 due to regulatory uncertainty following the FTX collapse, the company met with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 22, 2025, to discuss its re-entry.
Spent last 24h in Washington DC to explore how we can invest in the US again and launch Fan Tokens. As it’s actually public (!), you can see on the SEC website what we are trying to achieve. Very early stage, but also very promising in the long term. Bringing #SportFi in the US.
