The launch of the ASD ecosystem was incubated with GDA Capital, a vertically integrated financial services firm that helps bridge the gaps between innovative blockchain and cryptocurrency projects and institutional finance players, as well as with several other strategic partners, investors and advisors.
According to Youssef Mechahouri, the CEO of AllStars Digital: “The launch of AllStars Digital is a significant step forward for the tokenization of alternative assets. It is perfectly positioned to combine real-time player data and sports asset tokenization to create new, exciting, and fun blockchain-based investment opportunities and entertainment for people all around the world. The new ASD ecosystem gives participants access to all AllStars products including AllStars Trader (CFDs) and AllStars Play, a first-of-its-kind real-time sports performance scoring and weighting system, targeting the thriving, multi-billion-dollar fantasy sports market in the Indian subcontinent.”
Marc Aspinall, the Co-Founder & Chief Operating Officer of Adrix, shared similar sentiments saying: “AllStars Digital is the perfect example of user-focused utility meeting blockchain-based transparency and efficiency. AllStars Trader already supports daily trade and perpetual futures for 4,000+ players on the AllStars platform, primarily footballers and cricketers, but many other sports and players are in development. At Adrix, with our deep expertise in data benchmarking, tokenization, and the financial markets, we are excited about the launch of this new initiative and look forward to leveraging our expertise, networks, and partnerships to bring safe, secure, and open sports-based tokenization and asset trading to new and growing markets.”
