The sponsors of the FIFA World Cup are Visa and Crypto.com. The two entities have partnered to offer digital art NFTs as part of the Visa Masters of Movement, an interactive LED soccer pitch experience for fans in Qatar.

Argentine Football Association Fan Token (ARG), Levante U.D. Fan Token (LEV), Portugal National Team Fan Token (POR), Atlas FC Fan Token (ATLAS) and Davis Cup Fan Token (DAVIS). Each of these five tokens have offered upwards of 20% gains to holders over the past week. 

Analysts believe Chiliz could lead a crypto rally, eye $0.38 target

Ustatrader, crypto analyst and trader evaluated the Chiliz (CHZ) price trend and noted that the $0.26 level presents serious resistance from a major trend line. If successful in crossing this key resistance level, CHZ price will next eye the $0.38 level target in its uptrend.

A decline below resistance at $0.26 could invalidate the bullish thesis and CHZ price could nosedive to the $0.19 level.
