Only less than three months left until the summer World Cup frenzy kicks off! ⚽️ The related concepts are already starting to stir, prediction markets are gearing up, and fan tokens have even quietly surged once already… After all, as the sport with the largest fan base in the world, grabbing a slice of the pie means explosive traffic. For reference: the 2022 World Cup final between Argentina and France had an estimated 1.5 billion live viewers for a single match, and the entire tournament attracted over 5 billion viewers. Truly massive pump. The interesting part? FIFA officially announced today a partnership with ADI Chain. Who’s that? ▶︎ FIFA 2026 has designated ADI PredictStreet as the official prediction market partner. ▶︎ ADI PredictStreet is powered by ADI Chain and will debut at the 2026 World Cup. ▶︎ ADI Chain is an institutional-grade L2 blockchain. ▶︎ All transactions on ADI PredictStreet will consume ADI. In other words, aside from the prediction market leader Polymarket, this World Cup now has another option. Let’s see how much market share ADI PredictStreet and ADI Chain can grab with FIFA’s official endorsement. At this point, you might be wondering, @ADIChain_ how did they manage to land FIFA? —— Compliance, compliance, compliance. Here are a few keywords to make it clear: ADI Chain is designed specifically for institutional-grade compliant applications, backed by Sirius International under Abu Dhabi’s $240 billion publicly listed IHC, and operates under the regulatory framework of Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM). Lastly, this isn’t FIFA’s first foray into Web3. Back in the 2022 Qatar World Cup, FIFA announced partnerships with several crypto projects and even launched official NFTs. This time, they’re keeping up with the times by choosing a partner from the "prediction market" angle, which is a more fitting approach.
