Türkiye's MetaAge platform received nearly $1 million in early stage investment

Staples - (Business Wire) - MetaAge is a metaverse platform based on the Solana blockchain, and the project leader announced this week that the platform has received nearly $1 million in early-stage investment. The platform is currently under full development in Türkiye and has just entered the alpha test phase. During this period, the platform plans to work closely with 50 non homogenous token (NFT) projects around the world.

MetaAge platform creator and co-founder Mustafa Ekinci said, "We plan to expand globally in a relatively short period of time." He added, "The platform has aroused great interest in the international market," and pointed out that the platform's community on Discord has developed rapidly, with over 10000 members from around the world, including 4000 on the whitelist.

The all encompassing virtual world

MetaAge is an augmented reality platform where users can engage in almost all activities in real life - socializing, playing games, buying a house, making money, and more. Ekinci said, "The MetaAge world is open to everyone, and we will bring users almost unlimited online experiences. ”

The platform will eventually launch its own currency, $AGE, which users can use to purchase goods and invest in virtual world real estate. On May 25th, MetaAge will sell its first batch of 5000 plots of land at a price of 2 Solanas per plot.

After the project development is completed, users will be able to explore the MetaAge world through virtual reality (VR) helmets and other types of wearable VR technology. Ekinci stated, "We are currently developing VR technology and will fully transition to it by the first half of 2023. ”

He added, "Our platform is an all encompassing virtual world where users can explore clubs, parks, NFT art galleries, and various virtual entertainment venues with friends, and also make new friends

"Reinventing the Internet"

Citigroup predicted earlier this year that the metaverse economy will grow by $8 to $13 trillion by 2030. According to Ekinci, the business community is closely monitoring metaverse technology.

Trem Global, headquartered in Istanbul, is one of the investors in MetaAge and recently held its first metaverse conference using the new MetaAge platform.

Ekinci said, "We are excited by the infinite potential of Web 3.0 technology, which represents the rebirth of the Internet."
