Trading Meets the Dérbi: How Fans Can Engage in the Paulista Rivalry On-Chain

One of Brazil’s most historic football rivalries, O Dérbi Paulista, is set to play out on both the pitch and the blockchain. This time, it’s not just about pride, goals, and bragging rights; it’s also about Fan Token trading volume. Ahead of kick-off on the 31st of August, explore how you can boss the Dérbi.

A new initiative on FANX, a decentralised exchange built on the Chiliz Chain,  introduces a Derby Trading Volume Competition, centered around the official Fan Tokens of Corinthians ($SCCP) and Palmeiras ($VERDAO). 

During the build-up to the next Dérbi Paulista, fans will be competing by trading $SCCP and $VERDAO Fan Tokens on FANX to generate the most trading volume for their team’s Fan Token.

Here’s how it works:

• The Fan Token with the highest trading volume during the campaign period will win on-chain.
  
• If that same team wins on the pitch, the rewards for its top traders will increase.
  
  
• A live leaderboard on FANX will keep things transparent and competitive. This leaderboard will show competitors’ wallet address, total trades, total trade volume in $, and their rank. Read the full terms & conditions from FanX here. 

What can you win?

A prize pool equivalent to $10,000  will be distributed to the top 20 traders per Fan Token, based on individual trading volume. Payouts will be made in the same Fan Token traded.

The breakdown is simple: the more you trade, the higher your rank, the larger your share. First place gets the biggest share.

Reward Structure

• Highest Volume Reward:
  $5,000 in Fan Tokens will be shared among the top 20 traders of the Fan Token with the highest total trading volume during the campaign period. Rewards are based on each trader’s individual cumulative volume.
  
• Match Result Reward:
  Another $5,000 worth of Fan Tokens will be shared among the top 20 traders of the Fan Token belonging to the team that wins the match between S.C. Corinthians and Palmeiras. Again, rewards are based on individual cumulative volume.
  
• Minimum Rewards:
  Regardless of the outcome, at least $2,000 in Fan Tokens will be distributed among qualifying participants, even if their traded Fan Token didn’t have the highest volume or win the match.
  

At its core, this campaign is an example of how digital assets can create new dimensions of fan participation. It ties on-chain action to real-world football outcomes, turning a classic match into an interactive financial and emotional event.

Importantly, it’s not just for traders, it’s also a way for you to support your club in a modern, measurable way. Based on trading volume and match results, the dual-reward structure adds a layer of strategy to the rivalry. Football matches are now also played on chain and you are in control of who wins.

Just like the historic Dérbi, the competition on FANX promises to be fast-paced, passionate, and unpredictable.
