The gate to the metaverse world is opening up
Why are major global brands experimenting with nfts in the metaverse?
The main reason why global companies are interested in the integration of nfts in the metaverse is to seek new ways to attract customers for their respected brands. Since the pandemic started, people are spending more time at home, companies like Coca Cola and Gucci have recognized this opportunity to reach out new consumers through the connection of NFT and metaverse.
Gucci has done so with the Roblox game. The strategy used is to sell NFTs for avatars of the limited edition “Gucci Collection” in the Roblox game which includes bags, glasses and hats.
Coca-Cola launched branded virtual clothing as nonfungible tokens, including a “wearable” jacket to be worn on avatars within the virtual world of Decentraland, even hosting a Rooftop Party on the platform to celebrate the launch.

Project Quantum – high quality shooting blockchain gaming
Description: Project Quantum is an AAA blockchain game where the player is dropped onto a map — either alone or with a squad — and then fighting players and NPCs for equipment, mining and materials, which is the main game's philosophy. Therefore, the participant must extract before dying and losing everything.
Dropping into a map, looting, and escaping before dying while holding valuable NFTs has the potential to be thrilling in ways we haven't seen outside of eSports events.
The graphics engine is Unreal Engine 5, being essentially the top of gaming graphics.
On the Binance Smartchain, Project Quantum has its own token, $QBIT (BEP-20). All purchase, sell, and move transactions at Quantum Works will be subject to a 10% tax. "3.5 percent is switched and liquidated to BNB after that." In-game rewards, item value, and competition prizes all contribute 3.5 percent to the game economy. All players and holders of QBIT get 3% of their money back."
