MetaSolare is a new Web3 startup for “MusicFi”, “AnimeFi”, and “GameFi” whose co-founders include DJ Steve Aoki and Masato Matsuura, chairman of Japanese Entertainment Company Avex. Today the company made its official launch, releasing details of its upcoming Web3 project, which are available on its official website. The world is on the verge of a paradigm shift from Web2 to Web3, and new genres of entertainment that make full use of NFTs and tokens are beginning to see wide adoption. But this new era needs a new type of thinking, and a new open architecture where users have the power, and are involved in making the decisions. To adapt to this revolution requires more than just knowledge of the entertainment industry: it requires knowledge from the blockchain and financial worlds as well. MetaSolare has brought together experts from all these industries to form an entirely new type of Web3 entertainment project. These experts include co-founder DJ Steve Aoki, one of the most well known members of the crypto community, as well as Masato Matsuura, the chairman of Avex, one of Japan’s biggest media and entertainment companies. Together, they are proud to work on the MetaSolare Blockchain Ecosystem. Project Vision Building a new entertainment ecosystem takes three things: blockchain technology that allows users to own digital content, financial elements to allow for a sustainable content-centered economy, and game technology that allows for large-scale interactive communication. MetaSolare isn’t a project that uses content and IP simply as instruments for financial investment. Instead, it fuses these three elements in a way that allows for entirely new entertainment experiences in the fields of anime, gaming, and music, where everyone involved can create them together. ■Game Fi The words “Play to Earn” and “Play and Earn” are commonly used when talking about Blockchain games. MetaSolare looks to go a step further, to a society where games are part of everyday life. In this world, everyone around the world can become a “co-creator”, helping to build a new future for gaming in any number of ways and from any number of places. Their passion for the game can become assets both tangible and intangible. To make this possible, MetaSolare is working with a team of developers who have experience making some of the biggest video gaming titles in the world. Together, they’ll build a better world empowered by gaming, a dream that everyone can work towards together. ■Anime Fi Combining anime and blockchain opens up new possibilities for users to get involved with animation in any number of ways. The MetaSolare project combined NFTs, tokens, and technology to create an entirely new form of animation in tandem with users and creators. The experience of digitally owning part of your favorite anime can offer any number of new experiences and open the door to an entirely new funding model. And Metasolare will be there to offer you that world. ■Music Fi NFTs and tokens are a powerful tool to connect artists and fans, which allow for new types of ownership and ways to support creators. These new tools will change how music is made, and how stars are born. MetaSolare will be creating crypto-native music artists, backed by DAOs and NFTs. MetaSolare token and NFT holders will be given the opportunity to be directly involved in the artists future: for example, token and NFT holders will help hold auditions to pick new artists and talents and help them get ready for their big debut, with livestreams being held at regular intervals to help show how far they’ve come. MetaSolare’s team has deep connections in the global music scene, and in Asia particularly.  MetaSolare Co-Founder Steve Aoki is one of the most well-known DJs in the world, and Co-Founder Masato Matsuura is the chairman of Avex, one of Asia’s largest entertainment companies. These deep connections make them uniquely positioned to make the next generation of crypto-native music a reality.
