Bit2Me's partnership with Axie Infinity has a clear objective: to enter the NFTs market and therefore, into the metaverse. Some companies seem to be seriously interested in being part of the new fashion term. With the first objective achieved, it was only a matter of time before the latter became a reality.
Now, the trading platform is partnering with the OVR metaverse to create a variety of Pokémon Go, or 'treasure hunt'.
According to Koh Onozawa, CEO of B2M, said in a statement: “The agreement with OVR reflects Bit2Me's commitment to the development of the metaverse and web 3.0. We want to contribute to the development of a decentralized digital world where users are at the center of everything. It takes place in this parallel universe.”
The goal is simple: to search for tokens in an augmented reality version of OVR; the company's own metaverse is based on virtual reality and already has 675,000 users throughout the world. The proposal is to look for the tokens that Exchange launched in September 2021 as an ICO to raise capital and grow without investors.
In this case, the connection to OVR is reduced to the search for the metaverse they created, with or without virtual reality glasses; in short, a version very similar to Pokémon Go. In the case of OVR, a total of 1.6 billion hexagons are available for sale or rent.
It really is a worthy clone of the video game developed by Niantic (bridging the distance, of course). The agreement between both parties consists of putting 150,000 B2M assets into play (today at a price of USD$0.032 on a bear market).
The Pokémon Go style metaverse game is now working for users with European citizenship and is available until March 24. Players who win a place in the top 10 will have an additional $500 prize pool in B2M, in addition to the tokens they manage to hunt in this real-world metaverse clone.
The latest movements of the company founded in 2014 specializing in financial technology, which just a few weeks ago received the green light from the Central Bank of Spain after months of tense relations, have immediately won a larger sector of people who use alliances based on gamification. The Metaverse cannot but be part of it.
The metaverse agreement represents a gamification of the crypto world, yes, but it is also a way to boost its different products. And the reason is simple: to manage the search for tokens in the Pokémon Go style, they will have to manage it through the company's own wallet.
The OVR, which works primarily with Ethereum, also allows easy conversion to a Bit2Me wallet. That is, more users for the Exchange and more options for the token to make a place in the market.
The same happens when it is linked to Axie Infinity, the popular winning game that has conquered half the world. Being an NFT and crypto asset management partner means opening the door to an entire group of potential users. Primarily aimed at Latin America, an important market for cryptocurrency companies.
