FIFA shifts NFT platform to new Ethereum-compatible blockchain
Summary
FIFA plans to launch a new blockchain network, "FIFA Blockchain," compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) to enhance performance, features, and scalability. FIFA Collect, its NFT collection, will migrate from the Algorand blockchain to this new platform, starting no earlier than May 20, 2025. Users will receive detailed instructions for the migration process. Post-migration, Algorand-based wallets like Pera and Defly will be unsupported; users can connect via MetaMask or other EVM-compatible wallets. Existing collectibles will automatically transfer unless delisted by users before migration. Further updates will follow as the situation develops.
