What is A0K1VERSE?
As defined by a0k1verse.xyz, the project is a new ecosystem that connects the metaverse with the real world. Members of this community are waiting for a unique experience in both the virtual and real worlds.
The project's mission is to help people just taking their first steps here navigate the Web3 space and create a welcoming environment for all community members.
We have a shared sense of purpose, have fun, and are committed to being a force for good in the worldsays a0k1verse.xyz.
The project is based on A0K1VERSE credits and passports. Credits are ERC-1155 tokens with a total supply of 50,000. 25,000 are intended for the initial public release, and the remaining 25,000 will be distributed among community members as rewards.
Purchased credits can be exchanged by community members for passports, and this is where the fun begins. The A0K1VERSE passport is a pass to the metaverse and a dynamic NFT that evolves according to the activity of its owner.
The project features six levels of passports: infrared, electric green, neon blue, ultraviolet, phantom, and prizm. You need to pay a different number of credits for each of them – from 1 to 1024. It is not necessary to lay out a fortune at once to receive higher-level passports. Users can upgrade passes by gradually adding credits or by combining multiple passports into a more advanced pass.
