“Oasis TOKYO is a community platform of a metaverse and a Non-Fungible Token (NFT), showcasing the concept of the year 2035 near-future city.

Metaverse
The growing popularity of metaverse has changed the dynamics of the crypto and blockchain ecosystem. In November 2021, Barbados announced that the country is planning to establish the world’s first metaverse embassy. Leading players in the crypto market have also enhanced their efforts to increase the adoption of metaverse and blockchain gaming. Huobi recently launched a campaign worth $100 million to explore possibilities within the Metaverse ecosystem.
In the latest announcement, Kensuke Amo, Executive Director of Coincheck, said that the popularity of metaverse will accelerate in the near future. “We are committed to helping artists and companies connect with their fans and build communities in the metaverse. I am personally excited about the development of this project. I have no doubt that users will enjoy this joint project of Coincheck and The Sandbox,” Amo said.
