NFT Tech and Run It Wild partner with The Sandbox, Decentraland, Vegas City, DAPPCRAFT, Voxel Architects, and The Metakey to expand Elvis On-Chain metaverse strategy

NFT Tech Inc. (NEO: NFT) (“NFT Tech”), the leading technology company to mainstream decentralized ownership, NFTs and the metaverse for public markets, announced today it is a strategic partner in the launch of the first fully on-chain Elvis NFT from the Estate of Elvis Presley. Ramping up for the genesis launch on June 1st, the dream team of partners and collaborators includes leading decentralized gaming virtual worlds The Sandbox and Decentraland, digital creator Voxel Architects, wearables designer DAPPCRAFT, and renowned Web3 utility creator The Metakey.

NFT Tech’s involvement as a strategic advisor of the rock legend’s first-ever NFT is spearheaded by NFT Tech Advisor Adam De Cata, the founder and Director of Run It Wild and Head of Partnerships at Decentraland, the world’s first fully decentralized, 3D virtual reality platform built on the Ethereum blockchain.

The next phase of Elvis On-Chain is a digital key that will give fans an all-access pass to the Elvis metaverse, play-to-earn games, Elvis avatars, exclusive wearables, and iconic collections procured by the community wallet.

These new partnerships enable Elvis On-Chain to establish a one-of-a-kind meeting place for Elvis fan culture within the metaverse. Part time capsule and part amusement park, this celebration of the icon leverages Web3 rails to transcend boundaries.

“These incredible partners, all leaders in the craft, help us build a one-of-a-kind meeting place for Elvis fans. The Elvis metaverse will host an array of ground-breaking experiences, generative collections, showcase of rare concerts, fan experiences, and real events,” said Adam De Cata, Advisor to NFT Tech and Director of Run it Wild.

“Elvis On-Chain expands the opportunities for fans to come together in new ways. In a huge commemorative year for Elvis with the launch of Warner Bros. Pictures’ epic big-screen drama, ELVIS, from filmmaker Baz Luhrmann, catapulting his legacy into the future,” said Marc Rosen, President, Entertainment at Authentic Brands Group (ABG), owner of Elvis Presley Enterprises and Iconoverse.

Each of the partners within the expanded Elvis metaverse has committed to building a variety of experiences including:

  • The Sandbox plans to create the Elvis avatars for use in their native game, enabling users to turn into Elvis Presley, while also building an immersive and gamified world of Elvis in the metaverse. “Elvis Presley is one of the most iconic singers and performers of all time and this partnership will extend his legacy into the metaverse,” said Sébastien Borget, COO and co-founder of The Sandbox. “We want to empower his fans to express themselves and become their very own Elvis, creating an exciting way to experience his likeness across generations and keep him forever in the limelight thanks to technology.”
  • Digital creators Voxel Architects will lead the Sandbox build ensuring Elvis avatars are hand-crafted in meticulous detail, and the game leverages the most engaging aspects of his legacy.
  • Following the genesis NFT mint, Decentraland will host The Elvis Block Party, the first Guinness World Record in the metaverse for most Elvis impersonators in one place. The Elvis Block Party will welcome Elvis fans from around the world to honor the music, dance moves, outfits, cars, movies, and enduring legacy of The King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. The party will be held in Decentraland. Attendees will be able to access Elvis wearables including an Elvis jumpsuit and an iconic Elvis-styled wig. Elvis Genesis Key holders will be gifted officially licensed Elvis Decentraland wearables. The collection will include his iconic jumpsuits, outfits, shoes, wigs, and sunglasses. An Official GWR Adjudicator will attend and announce the record against key guidelines set for the world-first.
  • Vegas City, primary landowner of the largest entertainment district in Decentraland, will be supporting the build of the unique Elvis Block Party experience in the largest and best known social casino in the Metaverse.
  • Alongside Run it Wild, DAPPCRAFT will be designing all the officially licensed wearables for The Elvis Block Party, reimagined for the digital age from Elvis’ iconic jumpsuit and wardrobe collection. “We’ve brought history to life, in a new reality – the Metaverse. Every fan can feel like a rock star in these wearables, just like their idol,” said Demian G, CEO & Co-founder of DAPPCRAFT.
  • On the back of a $3.5m raise led by Animoca Brands, The Metakey will serve as a hallmark partner project, inspiring their community and setting the tone for Elvis’ future interoperability. Matty, the founder of The Metakey, added: “Elvis ‘shook up’ the music industry in the 1950s and it is that sort of cultural impact that we at The Metakey like to champion. I look forward to sharing his historic legacy to our community and introducing him to the Web3 space.”

The fan-controlled NFT offers unprecedented access, as buyers of the one-of-a-kind Elvis Genesis NFTs have the opportunity to vote on future releases from the vault and shape the future of Elvis on the blockchain. The Elvis On-Chain Litepaper hints at an upgrade to an Elvis DAO to govern the project.

Marvion™️ Metaverse, Working Apes, and Digital Ownership Tokens took Hong Kong by storm at the Hong Kong Computer & Communications Festival (HKCCF) 2022

Bonanza Goldfields Corp. (OTC:BONZ) is pleased to announce that Marvion™️ was invited to be the metaverse partner in one of the largest and major exhibitions in Asia for computer communications and electronic products, the Hong Kong Computer & Communications Festival (“HKCCF”), that took place August 19, 2022 to August 22, 2022.

About HKCCF

The Hong Kong Computer and Communications Festival is an annual event organized by The Chamber of Hong Kong Computer Industry to showcase the latest technologies in the tech sector in Hong Kong. As one of Asia’s leading Technology Innovation Hubs, the primary objective of this year’s festival was to feature the metaverse and unravel its mystery.

To achieve this goal, HKCCF introduced live demonstrations of on-site virtual platforms, a virtual Ocean Park, an AI (Artificial Intelligence) x AR (Augmented Reality) service platform to experience 3D online entertainment, and more importantly, the debut of the Marvion Metaverse!

Patrons were able to explore the possibilities in the metaverse showcased at HKCCF,  shop for a wide array of the latest tech products and experience firsthand the latest tech trends. This year, more than 200 exhibitors participated in this festival, occupying about 600 booths, and an estimated 500,000 visitors attended, with many such visitors being able to witness the debut of the Marvion Metaverse. The conference expects that this year’s sales will be the same as last year, maintained at HK$330 million.

In line with the development of the Digital Transformation Zone, the festival organized a summit exploring Web 3.0 development. The summit themes were “Digital Transformation” and “Emerging Technologies” respectively. The conference invited industry elites to share their unique insights, jointly explored the challenges faced by local enterprises in the transformation and used various types of cases to explore the trend of the future.

Showcasing the Marvion™️ Web 5.0 to the Public 

Of the various tech groups showcased at HKCCF this year, XBE is one of the leading Web 5.0 application technology groups globally. Its main operations include helping companies, both new as well as long-established traditional industries, to become one of the first movers into the Web 5.0 space. On the other end of the spectrum, HKCCF also showcased Marvion™️, a success case in the media and entertainment industry notable for the successful deployment of Digital Ownership Token (“DOT”) technology.

In HKCCF this year, Marvion™️ joined forces with XBE to debut for the first time the “Marvion Metaverse” to the public.  Visitors were able to indulge themselves in the metaverse to play games and interact with other live players. 

In order for participants to take their experience with the Marvion Metaverse beyond the exhibition, participants were able to obtain a “WAPE” DOT (Digital Ownership Token), which had a global perpetual commercial copyright license to the Working Ape (WAPE) PFP (profile picture) embedded into the metadata of the DOT. In addition, visitors were also able to interact with Marvion™️’s virtual KOL (Key Opinion Leader) character.

Through their experience with the Marvion™️ Metaverse and the distribution of “WAPE” DOTs, Marvion™️ and XBE successfully attracted a growing Gen Z community and facilitated their reconnection with Hong Kong after a trying past few years.

Our Vice Chairman of Marvion™️, One of the Line-Up of Speakers

Julian So, Vice Chairman of Marvion™️ and a speaker for the Web 3.0 Summit in HKCC noted that “incubating new and mature companies into Web 5 powerhouses is the right path in this digital era as Gen Z’ers are poised to be the single largest group of consumers worldwide and who will have a great impact on the world.”

Commenting on Web 5 as a Service (5aas), Kevin Tan, CEO of Marvion™️ stated that “Marvion™️ aims to gradually build a community around 5aas by initially releasing a small collection of WAPE DOTs. Owners of a WAPE receive a global perpetual private and commercial license to the PFP, documented and embedded within the metadata of the DOT. The holders of these DOTs can commercialize these rights. Each WAPE DOT can be expanded into merchandise, animation, short films, and the applications are both wide and diverse. We remain committed to adopting and implementing Web 5.0 technologies in a responsible manner to disrupt consumers’ experiences in the metaverse, enhance efficiency and productivity, and ultimately improve people’s lives. The possibilities are limitless.”

“Millennials are members of the first youngest generation more interested in gathering experiences than acquiring more material possessions. Gen Z’ers are even more interested in authentic experiences beyond the product or the brand. We see the DOT as a powerful tool to be used in the development of these strategies. The Marvion™️ Working Ape project seeks to provide a solution to the current NFT market to work with the community that embraces technology and experience. The WAPE DOT offers real-world value to its holders”, says Ms. Marsella Cheng, PR director of Marvion™️.

About BONZ

Bonanza Goldfields Corporation is a Nevada holding company that through its subsidiaries are engaged in the media distribution business. Specifically, we provide authentication, valuation and certification (“AVC”) service, sale and purchase, hire purchase, financing, custody, security and exhibition (“CSE”) services to buyers of movie and music media through traditional channels as well as through leveraging blockchain technology through the creation of digital ownership tokens (“DOTs”)

The group is building an ecosystem and a metaverse for the media and entertainment industry that implements and adopts blockchain and NFT technologies, through mergers and acquisitions.

About Marvion™️

Marvion™️ is a metaverse technology company in the media and entertainment industry, focusing on movies, drama, animation, comics, music, and games that provide content and entertainment to adults and children alike. Although most media and entertainment content are digital in nature today, they exist in the real world as intangible assets, such as intellectual property, licenses and contractual rights, with intrinsic value.

Marvion™️ applies blockchain and NFT technologies as tools to disrupt and improve the existing media and entertainment industry and its current practices. The technology underpinning NFTs (non-fungible tokens) has multiple functional use cases, some of which have the power to transform our societies, and some of which may be subject to regulations. Marvion™️ uses NFT technology solely to create a legally-binding digital ownership token (DOT) to both tangible and intangible media and entertainment assets, which our analysis suggests would functionally fall outside any regulatory perimeter.
