FAIM Selects QIE Blockchain to Power Its FAIM Ink Digital Signing Platform

Strategic partnership positions FAIM Ink as a flagship application on the high-performance QIE Blockchain, delivering seamless, verified digital autographs and collectibles for fans and celebrities worldwide

NEW YORK, NY – August 10, 2026 – FAIM, the premier commerce portal uniting fans with celebrities, influencers, and cultural icons through personalized digital assets and experiences, today announced that it has selected the QIE Blockchain as the foundational infrastructure for its groundbreaking FAIM Ink digital signing platform.

FAIM Ink enables fans to upload their own personal photos—selfies, concert shots, sideline moments, or cherished memories—and receive one-of-a-kind, cryptographically authenticated digital signatures directly from participating celebrities, athletes, and icons. These verified digital assets can be collected, traded, shared, or printed as high-resolution keepsakes, while creating new revenue streams and deeper engagement opportunities for talent.

The decision to build and launch the next-generation FAIM Ink platform on QIE Blockchain follows extensive evaluation of Layer-1 networks. FAIM cited QIE’s rapidly growing and highly focused ecosystem, full EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) & Cosmos ecosystem compatibility, near-zero transaction fees, high throughput (25,000+ TPS with sub-3-second finality), and strong co-marketing support as decisive factors. This allows FAIM to deliver a gasless, Web2-friendly user experience—complete with email/phone logins and smart wallets via Account Abstraction—while preserving its advanced technical architecture.

By anchoring FAIM Ink on QIE, FAIM aims to become a core pillar and commercial engine of the QIE community, similar to how Socios.com drives the Chiliz ecosystem, generating real-world utility, significant transaction volume, and mainstream adoption.

“Choosing the QIE Blockchain for FAIM Ink was a clear strategic decision driven by the need for a focused, supportive ecosystem that prioritizes real utility over noise,” said Dana Farbo, CEO and Founder of FAIM. “QIE’s EVM compatibility, ultra-low fees, and high performance enable us to offer fans a seamless, invisible Web3 experience—gasless checkouts, instant verified signatures, and true ownership of personalized digital collectibles—while positioning FAIM as a flagship application that brings millions of mainstream users and lasting value to the entire QIE network. This partnership accelerates our mission to turn fleeting moments into lifelong, verifiable connections between fans and their heroes.”

“The future of blockchain won’t be defined by more wallets or more tokens—it will be defined by applications that solve real problems for everyday users,” said Juan Engelbrecht of QIE. “FAIM’s innovative platform perfectly showcases what QIE was built for: high-speed, identity-centric, near-zero-cost infrastructure that makes Web3 accessible and useful for everyday people. By serving as a flagship consumer application, FAIM Ink will drive meaningful transaction volume, real-world adoption, and visibility for QIE as the identity layer of Web3, One ID for all your crypto payments and no more repetitive KYC to onboard to exchanges. We share FAIM’s vision of authentic connection and look forward to supporting their growth across entertainment, sports, and grassroots communities.”

The integration is already underway, with FAIM Ink leveraging QIE for secure, blockchain-verified digital autographs, dynamic collectibles, and scalable drops—initially expanding into celebrity experiences and U.S. high school sports memorabilia, where self-service signing of personal photos can create lasting digital legacies for student athletes and local communities.

FAIM continues to blend AI, blockchain, and real-world interaction to redefine fandom, offering personalized photos, digital trading cards, fractional art, branded merchandise, VIP experiences, and more.
