La Liga football club Atletico Madrid has secured a partnership with Socios.com, a blockchain-based platform that gives supporters voting rights.

According to a press release, fans will be given the chance to participate in engaging polls later this year.

Atletico Madrid is the latest in a long line of football clubs to team up with Socios.com, following the likes of Premier League side West Ham United and Italian champions Juventus.

Native club tokens will be sold via the Socios.com platform for €2 each and they will be tradable against Socios’ digital currency, $CHZ.
