Metapolis recap & Zilliqa’s Vision

Hi all,

You might have noticed the recent excitement around Zilliqa, and that is not an accident.

Following an exclusive, early-access look into Metapolis at our Miami event over the weekend, there’s been a ton of buzz about what’s in store for Zilliqa as the layer 1 blockchain underpinning this highly anticipated metaverse project.

The fact is — what we saw recently regarding Metapolis is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of what is planned for Zilliqa. Tremendous work is underway as our dev teams build utility-focused elements of DeFi & Play-To-Earn that will actualise our vision around engagement and Web3-based commerce.

We’ve put together a virtual session to go over some of this, and our 2022 roadmap. On the agenda for this web-session: An address from our CEO Dr. Ben Livshits on what’s in store for Zilliqa; an introduction to some new team members who will be critical to our growth agenda.

Our new head of marketing, who has already been hard at work behind-the-scenes, aiding in Zilliqa’s resurgence to becoming the leading L1 network, will also be introduced.

Join us for “Zilliqa’s Vision: 2022 and Beyond” session on 14 April. RSVP here.

With our established ,emerging and incoming ecosystem projects, the future has never been brighter for Zilliqa!

Tune in to learn about how we’re bringing our vision to life, and how you can be part of it!

In the meantime, enjoy a quick recap of 2 April’s Metapolis early-access event:

Everyone was excited to be part of the experiential journey at the Frost Science Center. Crypto natives, brands, gamers, our partners, public officials, influencers, designers — everyone congregated to Metapolis’ first-look on Saturday night.

The journey began with an introduction to Metapolis delivered by none other than the Metapolis team’s avatars themselves!

This brilliantly done video gave insights into the platform’s central vision of bridging the physical and virtual worlds and the addition of a new XR-powered layer of engagement to our lives — one that benefits brands, businesses and individual users.

The audience were then shown to the planetarium, whose massive dome showcased the breadth and depth of the Metaverse-as-a-Service capabilities — and the myriad built environments it could support and feature.

You want hyper realistic? You got it. Want to show your audience something animated? That’s possible too! Seeing the Metapolis in a larger-than-life way definitely opened up our imaginations to what this world could do, what it could be, and what it could represent for the future.

Attendees then arrived at the dance floor, which featured more sneak peeks into partner cities being built on Metapolis — including Zilliqa City and Ninjas in Pyjamas, a lively dance floor and the best DJ’s!

The team behind Metapolis finally came into full view — Max Kantelia, Sandra Helou, Mohan Kuldeep Ponnada , Rama Krishna Kattekola addressed everybody on the promise of Metapolis, which already has a support team of 60 people (and counting!) working on the A-Z elements that bring it to life.

All in all, a brilliant night showcasing partners how much they could do with MaaS and custom-environments powered on the Zilliqa blockchain, which is just getting started!

So join us on April 14th at the Vision 2022 event to stay updated on what’s coming for Zilliqa!
