Reports from the Sports Business Journal suggest that the deal is worth at least $100 million for a minimum 5-year period. The VeChain UFC deal also shows the long-term goal and feasibility of the project.
More about VeChain and UFC’s deal
VeChain’s current focus is on building a sustainable blockchain. Therefore, the Senior Vice President of UFC said that they are proud to support VeChain in using real-world applications to help private and public sectors achieve their carbon-neutral goals. At the same time, they are optimistic about using VeChain to promote the idea that blockchain can be used to protect the environment.
