Here’s some more information about the tokens:
Sui (SUI) is a scalable, low-latency smart contract platform powered by a permissionless set of validators. Sui allows transactions to be processed in parallel thanks to its unique data model and approach to consensus. The SUI token allows network users to pay gas fees, while also helping to ensure smooth transaction execution and reliable storage of operations on the network.
Polygon Ecosystem Token (POL) is a multi-chain scaling solution for the Ethereum blockchain. Polygon is a Layer 2 (L2) scaling solution for Ethereum that aims to improve the speed and reduce the cost of executing transactions on Ethereum. Polygon uses sidechains to help with off-chain computation while maintaining security and uses a decentralized network of proof-of-stake (PoS) validators. POL is an upgrade and renaming of the MATIC token. Switching to POL token is expected to enhance tokenomics and governance rights, allowing stakeholders greater involvement in decision-making process of Polygon through community initiatives.
Chiliz (CHZ) is the cryptocurrency used by sports fans to purchase “fan tokens” on the socios.com platform. These tokens allow participants to influence their favorite teams by voting on decisions while also earning engagement-based rewards. Chiliz also operates a cryptocurrency exchange platform where fan tokens can be purchased and traded.
Starknet Token (STRK) is the cryptocurrency of Starknet, an L2 rollup on the Ethereum network. Starknet leverages STARK, its unique zero-knowledge proof (ZK-proof) technology, for processing and authenticating transactions. The native cryptocurrency of Starknet is referred to as STRK, which is integral to the Starknet L2 ecosystem.
