Fan token platform Chiliz validates the genesis block of its new layer-1 EVM-compatible blockchain to mark its five-year anniversary.

Five years from its inception, fan token platform Chiliz has launched its own layer-1 Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible blockchain ecosystem to support its growth.

Chiliz’s fan token ecosystem has long been powered by Ethereum-based ERC-20 tokens, but the validation of the Chiliz 2.0 blockchain genesis block sees the ecosystem shift to its own layer 1.

The new blockchain uses a system of 11 active validators with proof-of-stake authority consensus, which is touted to provide faster block times, lower fees and energy usage.

According to the project’s documentation, Chiliz Chain 2.0 is a hard fork of BNB Chain, a go-to Ethereum fork.

This means that the new layer-1 is EVM compatible, which is aimed to attract decentralized application developers to build within the environment.
