Sorare
Sorare is a fantasy sport cryptocurrency-based video game. It was developed in 2018 by Nicolas Julia and Adrien Montfort. There are 3 sports in Sorare: football, basketball, and baseball. It is available for Android, iOS and web browsers.
Players compose and manage virtual teams of five players with digital player cards based on the cryptocurrency "Ethereum".
Some of the cards are digital collectibles (limited, rare, super-rare, and unique cards). These cards are Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) so they cannot be duplicated.
Teams are ranked based on the performance of their players in the real world, as it is common in traditional fantasy sports. These points are calculated utilizing a scoring matrix taking third-party data from Opta, where each player can score up to a maximum of 100 points depending on how they perform. This is also very similar to other fantasy football leagues where users keep the same players on their team every season, unless they choose to trade, drop, or sign new ones. [citation needed]
Sorare operates on the Ethereum blockchain network, and each player card is represented as a non-fungible token (NFT).[citation needed] Sorare has signed licensing deals with leagues, such as the K League and clubs such as Real Madrid, to allow the cards to have official branding, and to use player photos and names.[non-primary source needed]
In May 2019, the company announced a pre-seed round of €550,000, including the technology entrepreneur Xavier Niel.
In July 2020, the company raised $4 million with German football World Cup champion André Schürrle, among others. In December 2020, the company raised another €3.5 million with World Cup champion Gerard Piqué, among others.
In September 2021, the company raised $680 million Series B round, which valued the company at $4.3 billion. Also in September, Sorare formalized an agreement with the Spanish football league for a multi-year partnership. The agreement covers the edition of virtual cards for players playing in La Liga and Liga.
