How Megaverse Is Driving Mass Adoption of the Metaverse
The idea behind Megaverse is simple: they aim to bring the Metaverse to the masses, regardless of their socioeconomic status or actual knowledge about cryptocurrencies and blockchain tech. That’s why they are working on making it easy for users to:
Buy and sell virtual land
Build communities
Vote on changes to the metaverse thanks to the true DAO
Invest in financial services within the metaverse
Interact with other users that join the metaverse.
It’s important to mention that Megaverse has already included special zones for brands like Ferrari, clubs like Manchester United and even celebrities like Ariana Grande. It’s basically trying to transport our human experience in the real world to the metaverse.
Furthermore, Megaverse will also launch different products such as MegaFi (financial services such as swaps, staking, liquidity pools, launchpads and more) and Mega NFT (to buy, sell and commerce NFTs in the Megaverse’s Metaverse easily, with a very low entry barrier).
The idea sounds good, but we are yet to see the real development of the product. If the Megaverse sounds like a project you’d like to research and potential invest in, especially during the bear market, then you should check out their first public sale on Copper Launch, with a floor price of $0.025 USD.
The Rise of the Metaverse Council for the Esports Ecosystem
The CAGR for Esports enthusiasts by 2024 is projected to reach 7.70%, largely surpassing other industries. That’s why important entities want to fully integrate the Esports ecosystem with the metaverse, and that’s why the Global Esports Federation has launched the Metaverse Council.
As expressed by their own words, their goal is to focus on shaping tangible metaverse development initiatives for our global Esports community.
According to the CEO of the Global Esports Federation, Paul J. Foster, the goal of the Metaverse Council is to help the Esports ecosystem to take advantage of the limitless opportunities that the metaverse offers.
That’s why the council has recruited blockchain specialists and experts, Web3 engineers, NFT developers, marketing specialists and social media influencers, to help the Esports community to develop useful applications using blockchain and metaverse technology.
Therefore, the end goal of the council is to bring the Esports community new ways to monetize their time and skills, by bringing them opportunities in the metaverse and Web3 realms, just like what’s currently happening in GameFi projects.
The NBA Has Officially Joined the Metaverse
If Esports or technical metaverse products are not your thing, but you love traditional sports (especially basketball), then you will be interested to know that the NBA has finally joined the metaverse.
After successfully getting on the NFT train with NBA Top Shot, they have partnered up with [] to bring users the NBA Lane experience on the Horizon Worlds VR, which is a virtual universe dedicated to the NBA, where you will find exciting activities, games and much more to get immersed in the current events and history of the league, now that it’s celebrating its 75th Anniversary.
If you’d like to live this surreal NBA-themed metaverse universe, then these are the activities and games you will find:
Dunk Contest with Low Gravity
Take Selfies at the NBA Trophy Room
Exclusive Highlights on the Big Screen
Throw Shootout Against Other Players.
The Horizon Worlds is successfully recruiting top organizations and companies to join their metaverse, because even amongst the total crypto chaos, this collaboration is taking place.
The Upcoming QQS Metaverse Presale: A Good Buy Amidst the Bear?
While not probably the best timing, the QQS is still launching their presale amidst the crypto chaos. The presale will take place on May 15, 2022, and will last a total of 60 days. The main selling point of QQS is their VR technology, which would allow the users to fully interact and immerse themselves in the metaverse.
Users can create art, participate in events, win prizes, and pretty much live a normal life but in the metaverse. A brave project that wants to obtain attention from investors, and if you like what QQS offers, then it’d be a good coin to further analyze.
Axie Infinity: Origin NFT Finally Goes Live on Android - The Newest Addition to the Ecosystem
The Axie ecosystem has been one of the most damaged during this crypto chaos, and even from before to issues with the SLP price. Nonetheless, the team is adding more elements to the ecosystem, and the Axie Infinity: Origin NFT is finally available on Android. Even though you cannot download it from Google Play, you can do it from the official Axie Infinity website.
Even though the official launch on Google Play is yet to be known, the developers have hinted about interesting benefits that the official version will offer, such as big tokens rewards, NFT runes, NFT charms, and AXS prizes for the 1st Season of Origin Leaderboard.
If you want to test Axie Infinity: Origin NFT before the official launch, then go ahead and download it. The announcement barely made the AXS price raise a 5%, but we believe that this implementation will help the AXS and SLP prices to grow exponentially in the next bullish run, because the ecosystem keeps growing and getting stronger.
New GameFi Opportunity: The Battle of Haku on AVAX Blockchain
If you are up for exploring a new GameFi despite the blood on the streets, then check out The Battle of Haku, the newest P2E on AVAX blockchain.
The story of the game takes place at the Mountain Haku, where black valley ninjas and monks will battle each other to win valuable prizes of $HAKU, the token of the game.
Currently there are 10,000 NFTS, from which 9,500 are Monks and barely 500 are dark valley ninjas, making the latter a lot more valuable in terms of rarity and scarcity. With minting available now, it’s a good idea to check this project, especially if you have spare funds.
Even though the current link between TERRA (Luna) and AVAX does not look favorable at all, especially if the stablecoin UST gets officially shut down, it’s worth it to look into this project. Nonetheless, be careful!
Lord of Dragons: A Superb Collaboration between OnFace Sotem & Binance NFT
OnFace Sotem is already a big name in the gaming scene, thanks to popular and successful titles like Dragonica, Dragonraja, and East Legend. Now it wants to join the GameFi sector with the Lord of Dragons game, which is already backed up by Binance NFT.
Lord of Dragons is a 3D MMORPG game that allows you to earn money while playing, which to be honest is a high quality title, just like Dragonica or Dragonraja.
The game has been deployed on Unity 3D engine, to make it even more realistic, and hence, make it truly immersive. A fresh proposal, especially since many GameFi projects are lazy when it comes to graphics and gaming experience.
The current features of the game allow you to join Boss Raids and battle in PVE-PVP duels, but the company is already working to introduce the amazing function of siege battles, where you will be able to join a war of 500 vs. 500 players.
When it comes to tokenomics, the utility token is LORT, while the LOGT token remains as an utility to preserve the ecosystem.
If you like what you are reading, then go ahead and play Lord of Dragons, which in the next bull run might become another leader in the industry, especially since it’s backed by Binance NFT.
Anito Legends Launches on Android, iOS, Window & MAC
The NFT game Anito Legends is finally available (beta version) on Android, iOS, Windows and Mac. The goal is to get over 1,200 testers, in order to detect bugs, fix them and work on improving the gaming experience, according to James Chua, the Chief Executive Officer of Anito Legends.
If you want to join this new NFT game early, then become a tester to bring the team the feedback they need to make Anito Legends another success in the GameFi sector.
Zombie Zoo: The First Anime NFT Game Sees the Light
Zombie Zoo is the first anime NFT game to launch in May, inspired by Zombie Zoo Keeper’s NFT collection, a 9-year artist from Japan. If you want to check out the characters, then head over to the metaverse at NFT Fest 2022 Spring.
There are not many details available right now, but it’s worth it to keep this project under the radar, in case the hype picks it up. Not likely given the current circumstances of the market, but perhaps the team is waiting for a better market cycle to release more details and important upgrades.
The Rising Volume of Ninneko: How a Gamer Invested 50 BNB in the Game (Amidst the Luna Disaster)
Even though a 50 BNB investment is no rival to what gamers have invested at top games like Axiet Infinity, it’s still a good achievement for new projects like Ninneko. The Ninneko gamer known as “Midway”, has invested nearly $15,000 at the current price (May 13, 2022). This investment allowed the gamer to obtain 3 cats full of the Wild gen lineup.
At the moment of writing this article, Midway’s inventory is worth over $200,000 USD - which speaks about the rising volume at Ninneko. Therefore, it’s a good project to keep under the radar, especially when the market conditions get better.
Legends of Aria Tests Its New NFT System - Regardless of the Current Luna Disaster
Just like Axie Infinity released Origin NFT, and new projects like QQS run their private sales, Legends of Aria also decided to join the club of brave crypto projects, by testing its brand-new NFT system.
The alpha test of the P2E model started on May 11, 2022, in preparation for the upcoming beta tests that will take place in June and July 2022. To implement the necessary blockchain systems, Legends of Aria is collaborating with Eva Codes.
The implementation of the P2E system will be the cornerstone of the upcoming rebrand and relaunch of Legends of Aria this year. Therefore, this is a project worth checking out, since it’s already gaining traction and the hype that’s essential to make the game economy thrive.
The Major League Baseball Embraces NFTs thanks to Sorare
The NBA has already joined the Metaverse after successfully launching NFT products, and other sports leagues like the Major League Baseball (MLB) are following the same steps. Thanks to Sorare, they are now launching their own P2E NFT game, which will successfully introduce the MLB to two of the hottest crypto sectors this decade, GameFi and NFTs.
The GameFi project will be a fantasy baseball P2E, which will allow the players to get NFTs, build winning lineups and compete against other baseball fans, from all the countries around the world.
The launch of the game will take place this summer, and if you like baseball and see this as the new Top Shot but of the GameFi scene, then look into it.
