Hi, metaverse enthusiasts around the world, as you read this letter, you may have just woken up in the morning, or browsed Twitter in the quiet night, or coded on your computer in the afternoon. Wherever you may be, Metaverse Alliance, a team of metaverse enthusiasts and blockchain believers on an adventure to explore the infinite possibilities of the metaverse, would bring everyone together. We have all gone through the bulls and bears of the crypto market, and we know that good thing must stand the test of time through ups and downs. There’s been a lot of buzz about the metaverse lately, but unlike those who jumped on the bandwagon, we firmly believe that the metaverse will create long-term value. In the future, the real and virtual worlds will exist in parallel, with fewer boundaries. And now is the best time for us to build this world.

Metathon, is the best way we could think of to introduce ourselves for the first time, which is also the thing we will be committed to in the future. The word “metathon” is a portmanteau of metaverse and hackathon. We are willing to create a platform for amazing developers with imagination and vision of the future. Maybe you’ve been really into games since you were a kid. But here, no one will blame you for that anymore. Games are one of the fundamental components of the metaverse, so why not try to make a game that you love yourself? If you think that in terms of metaverse infrastructure, there are many protocols and WEB3.0 tools that are necessary for everyone, then the Metathon is just the thing for you; or you might be an artist and you have your understanding of the future directions of NFT, this is for you as well. Join us to see how the metaverse will become more exciting because of you as adventurers.

Now, let’s check out what we’ve got for you! We have onboarded top funds, active DAOs, top metaverse exchanges, renowned crypto experts, and project founders who have already made their marks in the crypto world. Of course, there’s a big prize and a steady stream of seed funding chances coming your way. We want to be there to support you, even if your idea has yet to take shape. We will be the summoners to summon wormholes connecting the real universe to the metaverse, escorting you, the brave adventurers, into it, and helping you along the way.

Also, for this Metathon, we will be joining forces with top artists to design super cool limited-edition identity NFTs for all summoners and adventurers! Ready for an adventure to the metaverse? Let’s GO!
