Sorare’s NFT-based NBA fantasy sports game launched
A lot of basketball fans love playing NBA fantasy. With the new season just around the corner, many fans are preparing their fantasy rosters with the goal of winning the championship.
The classic NBA fantasy experience is entertaining, which is why it’s not surprising that so many fans play it. However, Sorare launched a new version of the sports game that uses blockchain technology.
The beta version of the sports game has been launched, and players from all around the world have a chance to try it out. What makes this version of the NBA fantasy unique is the fact that it’s NFT-based.
Sorare’s partnership with NBA
Since it launched in 2019, Sorare has become one of the most popular sports fantasy games. The game uses blockchain technology on Ethereum, which is what makes it different from any other sports fantasy game.
While there have been similar projects in the past, this is the first time that another company that makes blockchain-based games has partnered with the NBA. Due to this, Sorare has a licensing partnership with the basketball league.
In early September 2022, there have been talks about Sorare teaming up with the NBA. The goal of this partnership was for Sorare to become the official NFT fantasy partner of the NBA.
The announcement came after Sorare’s successful partnership with other sports leagues, including Major League Baseball (MLB), Bundesliga, and La Liga. With more than two million registered users, Sorare has established itself as the most popular NFT-based sports fantasy game.
The new NBA fantasy game is not the first time that the league has been involved in a blockchain-based project. The league has invested a lot of money into Top Shot, a popular marketplace that sells digital collectibles.
New NBA fantasy game looks amazing
To sign up for Sorare’s NBA fantasy game, you will need to visit the official website of the game and sign up for an account. After this, you will be able to pick your starting player and build a roster around him.
Right after this, your team will be ready, and you will be allowed to join different leagues. At the very start, you will be able to join the Common Champion league that offers Common and Limited cards as the prize.
The fantasy game looks amazing, and its interface is very easy to use. Despite being in the beta stage, Sorare’s basketball game doesn’t have a lot of problems, and it seems to be completely functional.
The game has 5,000 Limited cards, 1,000 Rares, 100 Super Rares, and one Unique card. By playing the game and ranking high in tournaments, you will be able to obtain new cards and improve your team.
You can also buy or sell your cards in the marketplace. As of October 18, the most expensive card on the market is the Rare LeBron James card that already costs a few thousand dollars.
