Swedish esports organisation Team Alliance have announced plans to launch an $ALL Fan Token on fan voting and rewards app Socios.com.
Alliance will make esports fan engagement history when they launch their first poll on Socios.com, with fans to be asked which game the organisation pick up a team in next.
$ALL Fan Tokens will give owners many benefits, including the right to vote in Alliance polls. Fan Token owners can also connect with other fans in Socios Chat and look forward to VIP rewards and exclusive club and sponsor promotions.
Alliance will become the fourth esports organisation to join the Socios.com platform following OG, Team Heretics and Natus Vincere. Major sports clubs, including FC Barcelona, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain have all also launched Fan Tokens.

Team Alliance, in partnership with Chiliz, have announced plans to launch an $ALL Fan Token on blockchain-based fan voting and rewards app Socios.com.

Alliance is a world-renowned esports organization fielding competitive players across some of the most popular video games in the world including DOTA2, Apex Legends, Super Smash Bros, Fortnite and TrackMania. Their Dota 2 team, headed by Jonathan “Loda” Berg, won The International 2013.

Alliance has become one of the most recognizable brands in esports, with acclaimed players such as Adam “Armada” Lindgren leading Smash and a Dota 2 legacy that has created countless memories for fans and players alike. Since its foundation in 2013, Alliance has had a Nordic focus and is based in Sweden. In 2016 Alliance became an independent, player-owned organization.

$ALL Fan Tokens will give owners many benefits, including the right to vote in Alliance polls. For the historic first poll, fans will be asked to choose which game the organisation picks up a team in next. Fan Token owners can also connect with other fans in Socios Chat and look forward to VIP rewards and exclusive club and sponsor promotions.

The maximum supply of $ALL Fan Tokens will be 5 million with a limited number to be made available at a fixed price of $1 in an initial flash sale to take place in the coming months. The date of the sale will be revealed soon. $ALL Fan Tokens will be available after the flash sale, but price will then be determined by demand.

Socios.com Fan Token partners include esports organisations Natus Vincere ‘NAVI’, Team Heretics, and OG as well as 13 major soccer clubs including FC Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus. Socios.com also has a global fan engagement partnership with MMA giants UFC, while fellow MMA organisation the Professional Fighters League (PFL) will launch a Fan Token in early 2021. Additional partnership announcements from esports and other sports are expected before the end of the year.

Details on when the $ALL Fan Token and more information about the historic first poll will be revealed in the near future.

Jonathan ‘Loda’ Berg of Team Alliance said, “I am extremely excited to announce that we are partnering with Socios.com to launch $ALL Fan Tokens.

“We exist for our fans and we want to give them a direct say in key decisions, such as which games we pick up and what we feature on our team jerseys. $ALL Fan Token will also give Alliance fans the chance to win a tonne of rewards and unique VIP experiences.

“The first poll, which will open as soon as we launch the $ALL Fan Token on Socios.com, is going to set a new milestone for fan engagement in esports. There’s going to be more details about the launch date and that huge first poll soon. Make sure you’re ready to cast your vote!

Alexandre Dreyfus, CEO & Founder of Chiliz and Socios.com, said: “We are delighted to welcome Team Alliance on board as the latest esports organization to join Socios.com.

“$ALL Fan Tokens are going to give fans a big say in the future of the organisation and real decision making power starting with the incredible first poll to choose which game Alliance will pick up a team in next. Fans can look forward to connecting with each other in Socios Chat, amazing VIP rewards plus exclusive promotions linked to Alliance and their sponsors”

DeGaming has launched a Web3 iGaming platform and appointed Ulle Skottling as CEO, with the company positioning on-chain operations as a way to improve transparency across operators, affiliates and players.

The platform’s core product pitch is its proprietary “Glass Vault” technology, which DeGaming says provides real-time proof of funds and independently verifiable visibility of balances, transactions, and payouts.

DeGaming is also offering “Bankroll as a service,” routing transactions through its on-chain transaction engine to provide operators access to scalable liquidity for withdrawals and platform stability. The company said this is designed to reduce friction for operators trying to scale, while giving players visibility into the funds available on the platform.

The supplier said its unified platform combines game access, player account management (PAM) and reporting in a single blockchain-native operational engine. DeGaming added that operators can launch a customisable casino or sportsbook in “as little as two weeks,” including crypto and fiat deposits, automated payouts and a back-office.

Skottling joins as CEO to lead what DeGaming called its next phase. He has held senior roles at RAW iGaming, Videoslots and NetEnt. Skottling said: “The industry has evolved rapidly, but transparency and trust have not kept pace. It runs on what you can’t see, whereas we have built a platform that you can. We are challenging the model and defining the new standard for gaming infrastructure.

“Our Glass Vault technology gives operators, affiliates and players independently verifiable visibility into platform activity and funds in real time. The future of gaming will be built on openness, accountability and infrastructure that all participants genuinely trust.”

Emil Ahmed, co-founder of DeGaming, added: “Appointing Ulle as CEO is an important step in DeGaming’s next phase. We have built the platform around a clear belief that gaming needs more transparency, stronger infrastructure, and greater operational trust. Ulle brings the industry experience, commercial understanding, and leadership needed to take that vision to market and help operators launch with confidence.”
