Chiliz ($CHZ) is riding a fan-fueled frenzy as the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaches, with its price rallying since mid-December 2025. The token’s sports-centric ecosystem, including platforms like Socios and Locker Room, is gaining traction as fan tokens go viral.
Socios—a MiCA-licensed SocialFi pioneer—just dropped its fourth national team fan token (after Argentina, Portugal, and Italy), turbocharging CHZ demand. Fans are snapping up tokens for exclusive perks, while Locker Room engagement metrics keep printing bullish.
History suggests CHZ could moon during major tournaments: the token pumped 380% during the 2022 World Cap. Current market cap ($565M+) and volume ($166M/24hr) confirm both degens and suits are paying attention—though on-chain data hints the market might need a breather.
Technically, CHZ smashed through $0.05 resistance and is hovering near $0.055. Next targets? $0.0588, then $0.0692 if momentum holds. But with RSI flashing overbought signals, a pullback to $0.0514 support wouldn’t surprise anyone. Below that, $0.0443 becomes the line in the sand.
Chiliz’s regulatory green light under MiCA gives it access to 450M+ EU users, while rumored $50-100M US market re-entry plans add more hopium. As the World Cup draws closer, CHZ looks poised for volatility—whether that means tendies or bag-holding depends on how well it defends its support levels.
