April1st — Head of Business Development at Meta Merge

Q: Can you briefly introduce Meta Merge to our audience?

April1st: Meta Merge is a game changer in the world of Web3, taking the form of a unique, immersive metaverse. It combines gaming, Artificial Intelligence and Game Chain (AIGC), Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) in a groundbreaking way. The concept resembles a digital wildlife reserve where users can cultivate, evolve, and interact with diverse digital pets. These digital creatures are more than just game elements - they have a life of their own, telling a story and adding a deep layer of emotional engagement to the game.

Q: How does Meta Merge plan to attract and maintain a strong user base, and what makes it stand out among other GameFi projects?

April1st: User engagement is paramount for us at Meta Merge. We aspire to build a community-driven platform where users aren't simply players but also contributors to the game's evolution. This involves hosting regular community events and collaborations, like the recent Match3 event with Linea and continuously introducing fresh content.

A notable example was the inclusion of Pepe in our pet ecosystem during the peak of PepeCoin. We're persistently developing a variety of digital pets, new game modes, and rewards to keep our users engaged.

What sets Meta Merge apart is its immersive universe and user-driven economy. Our approach blends DeFi, NFTs, and gaming elements to craft a unique experience where users are integral to the game's economy. They own digital assets and have a voice in the game's progression.

For instance, Meta Merge users can breed pets to generate unique offspring that can be traded or sold in the marketplace. This interactivity allows users to participate in and influence the in-game economy actively.

We also have significant experience in user acquisition from Web 2.0 platforms such as TikTok and Facebook, with Daily Active Users (DAU) ranging from 20 million to 100 million. We are quite familiar with achieving cost efficiency in this process. Join our Discord!

Q: Can you talk about the tokenomics of the project? How does the token fit into the Meta Merge ecosystem?

April1st: The Meta Merge project employs its native token, Meta Merge Mana ($MMM), as the heart of its ecosystem. Issued as a BEP-20 token with a total supply of 10 billion, $MMM is a multi-utility token facilitating decentralized exchanges within Meta Merge. $MMM incentivizes users to participate and contribute to the ecosystem, establishing a fair compensation system.

Players can earn $MMM through active game participation and various in-game activities, tying the token's distribution to compelling gameplay. Additionally, the token's creation rate is adjustable to optimize user adoption.

$MMM is also integral to gameplay and various aspects of the metaverse ecosystem, with players spending $MMM to access content, products, and services. This creates a healthy, circulating economy for $MMM. Thus, $MMM enables transactions within Meta Merge and stimulates user participation and ecosystem growth. Further details can be found in Meta Merge’s Litepaper.

Q: How can players earn rewards in Meta Merge?

April1st: Players can earn rewards by participating in battles, completing quests, or participating in the community. Rewards can come in various forms, such as pet eggs, unique NFTs, or even special privileges within the game world. For example, our recent Match3 event with Linea offered players a chance to win unique NFTs that could enhance their gameplay experience.

The game's native token, Meta Merge Mana ($MMM), is the primary reward and is highly integrated into compelling gameplay. This ensures that the distribution and rate of creation of $MMM are designed to be dynamically controllable to maximize user adoption and enjoyment of the game.

Also, active participation in the game and completing various in-game activities are the primary ways to acquire rewards. Here are some specifics:

● Defeating opponents in tournaments and completing challenges.

● Achieving Milestone Rewards for reaching certain progress points within the game.

● Forming teams or alliances can also yield rewards.

● Dispatching pets on specific missions or tasks.

● Participating in time-limited in-game events.

Q: Can you share some details about the Meta Merge roadmap? What are some major milestones we should be looking forward to?

April1st: We have an exciting journey ahead. Our focus for the next few months is to introduce more engaging game modes and launch the full version of the game; more features will be introduced that involve battling and AIGC-related aspects. We are planning to collaborate with our community to build these together.

We will also strengthen our partnerships with other platforms for greater exposure and to attract new users. For instance, we've recently collaborated with Manta Network to enhance our platform's privacy and security features. As we progress, we'll unveil new partnerships and features that will enrich the Meta Merge universe.

Q: How can newcomers best get involved with the Meta Merge?

April1st: For individuals seeking to engage with Meta Merge, I strongly recommend participating in our 'Box of Fate' event, accessible via our official website. The 'Box of Fate' feature is available to all users who can engage with it daily by simply connecting their Binance Smart Chain wallet and selecting the corresponding button. Possible rewards encompass Coins, Experience Points (Exps), Capture Boxes, and Pet Eggs, which will be highly beneficial post-game launch.

A thorough examination of our comprehensive whitepaper would also be advantageous for newcomers. The whitepaper provides extensive insight into Meta Merge's game mechanics, token economy, and the function of NFTs within our platform. Staying updated through our official social media channels and engaging with our burgeoning community will also aid your immersion into the Meta Merge universe. Kindly join our Discord server, which will offer additional support during your onboarding process.

Q: Please discuss the key upcoming plans for Meta Merge and any potential collaborations or crossovers with other games or platforms.

April1st: Meta Merge has a vision of constantly expanding and enhancing the user experience in the gaming metaverse. In the upcoming period, we are focused on introducing several new features and updates to enrich the gameplay and provide a more immersive environment.

Furthermore, on the collaboration front, we continue to forge alliances that drive growth and enrich our offerings. Our historical partnerships with Manta Network and Linea Build have positively influenced our platform. As we progress, we plan to expand our horizon and partner with more games and platforms that align with our vision. These partnerships aim to ensure a diverse, seamless, and exciting experience for our users.

Rest assured that our focus remains on empowering users by letting them actively participate in the game's economy, which truly sets Meta Merge apart in the GameFi landscape.

Please stay tuned for more updates!

Q: Looking ahead to the rest of 2023, what are your expectations for the game-fi market? How could Meta Merge bring to the Metaverse as part of the Ultiverse platform?

April1st: As we look ahead to the rest of 2023, we're incredibly optimistic about the game-fi market. The convergence of gaming and DeFi will continue accelerating, opening up new opportunities for developers and players. Meta Merge, born from the Ultiverse platform, is perfectly positioned to exploit these trends. Ultiverse's commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive community using MetaFi and cutting-edge Dapps underlines the promise of tangible rewards for in-game activities, a pioneering concept in the Metaverse. Meta Merge's aspiration goes beyond the traditional scope of gaming. The trend of players earning real-world value for their in-game activities is just the beginning.

Our vision for Meta Merge extends beyond it merely being a mobile game. We aim to create an immersive metaverse where players can have unique experiences and form genuine connections. Lowering the entry barriers for different types of players with various gaming skill sets is a goal of Ultiverse. Meta Merge can contribute significantly to the Metaverse by introducing a casual and fun way to engage and interact. The comprehensive solutions that Ultiverse provides can greatly boost the development of Metamerge. As a platform, from traffic explorers to social engagement to more future games, these assets can partly be inherited from one game to another. There are limitless possibilities.

Q: I've read about various Metaverses, but they need to show how the interactions within the Metaverse will be. How can users interact in your Metaverse? What is the process that must be passed before entering the Metaverse?

Jimbol: We believe everyone has their definition of the Metaverse. We utilize our infrastructure as the entry point, offering seamless access into this ecosystem. From watching our live stream shows to buying our dynamic NFTs, such as METAGF, or playing our casual mobile game, Metamerge, we provide a range of engaging experiences. You can spend time with our products, have fun, and earn rewards. There are different steps to help people discover their understanding of the Metaverse. And time is the first one.

Q: Could you elaborate on the concept of the digital wildlife reserve in MetaMerge? How does it work, and what makes it immersive and engaging for users?

Jimbol: Multiverse offers various products, including Metaverse city, Terminus, and dynamic NFTs like MetaGF. You can see your pet not only within the Metamerge game but appearing in different locations in the future. It might even play different roles in upcoming games.

Q: Truly, you've done AMAs in many telegram groups, so what next? What other way will you make your project more popular?

April1st: We are exploring collaborations with games and platforms that align with our vision. Our objective is consistently providing our players with a richer, more seamless, and exciting experience. We also plan for contests, AMA sessions, and community events. It's all about encouraging active participation and rewarding our dedicated community members. Kindly follow us on Twitter and stay tuned for more upcoming updates.

Q: What are the benefits of holding the MMM token as a long-term investment? Can you tell us the motivation and benefits for investors to keep your token in the long run?

Jimbol: We have a clear roadmap, and the game can expand and upgrade. Our ecosystem is committed to continuously attracting different user groups. More importantly, tokens have value and are an important part of governance rights. Our game tokens may be linked with more platform games in the future. NFA

Q: I want to support your project. Tell us more about the Ambassador Program and in what ways we can participate.

Jimbol: MCN is an important aspect of the Ultiverse ecosystem. We strongly encourage players to become a part of the game and take on the role of ambassadors. More updates will be coming soon.

Q: What is your favorite aspect of the Binance Smart Chain, and why did you choose it for your NFT and Memecoin projects?

April1st: The BNB Chain (BSC) is our platform of choice due to its numerous advantages. BSC offers high-speed, secure, and scalable blockchain technology. It also provides lower transaction costs than other chains, a feature that greatly benefits our users. In addition, BSC's burgeoning DeFi and NFT ecosystems open up a vast array of collaborative opportunities, thus enriching our game environment. For instance, the compatibility with various wallets and DeFi platforms on BSC makes it easier for our users to engage with Meta Merge.

Q: Many games today set high costs to start the game & therefore start with a small player base. Does Meta Merge require an entrance fee or starting conditions, and if so, what are they? Do I need to hold an NFT or a certain amount of tokens to enjoy & play the game?

Jimbol: We offer free boxes to claim (only gas fee needed) every day to ensure the entry-level to play is as low as possible so that as many people as possible can enjoy the game. You don't need to hold an NFT to play the game, as we've maintained web 2.0 features. However, it would help if you held NFTs to unlock the Web 3.0 play-to-earn functions.

Q: As we know, "The nature of MetaMerge is a GameFi hybrid, " but what do you mean by that? Will they combine two blockchains in this game? or is that joining two different types of GameFi? And really, what benefits does this union offer?

Jimbol: Ultiverse provides a mission distribution platform called "Mission Runner", which allows players to complete certain tasks to earn Soul Tokens and gain experience to level up. These tasks could include collecting a particular pet or achieving a top position on the leaderboard. The rewards from these tasks, which differ from those of MMM, have future utility across the entire Ultiverse ecosystem

Q: Marketing is a central element for every project, so everyone knows the potential a project can bring is vital to achieving the goals set. What is your strategy to attract new users and investors to your platform and keep them long-term?

April1st: Meta Merge's marketing strategy is multifaceted and focused on creating a sustainable, engaged, growing community:

Engagement and Education

We are dedicated to offering a unique gaming experience that encourages interaction and offers real-world value. We aim to consistently educate our audience about the potential of Meta Merge through various platforms such as social media and AMAs.

Partnerships

By collaborating with strategic partners, we can tap into new user bases and extend our reach.

Reward System

We have designed a reward system that incentivizes in-game activities. Players can earn $MMM tokens by participating in the game, which provides a tangible benefit and motivates them to continue engaging with our platform.

Expanding Use Cases

We are consistently working on expanding the use cases of $MMM within our ecosystem, providing more value to holders and attracting investors interested in utility-driven projects.

Our overall aim is to create a friendly environment that satisfies both gamers and investors alike, securing their commitment to Meta Merge in the long term.

Q: What strategy will you implement to bring non-crypto-natives into your ecosystem? How do you keep a balance between developing the technology and also improving the value of your token?

Jimbol: As mentioned earlier, we have significant experience in user acquisition from Web 2.0 platforms such as TikTok and Facebook, with Daily Active Users (DAU) ranging from 20 million to 100 million. We are very familiar with achieving cost efficiency in this process for mobile games.
