The 10,101 Metaverse-Agnostic Wearables Already Have 6,000+ Users Mintlisted for Pre-Sale
NEW YORK, Oct. 07, 2021 — Kollectiff’s The Metaverse Travel Agency (M.T.A), a non-fungible token (NFT), metaverse-agnostic project specializing in first-to-market NFT wearables, partnered with crypto’s largest virtual worlds, Decentraland and The Sandbox, to launch an exclusive collection of 10,101 MetaHelmets that will be available for public-minting on Friday at 12pm PST
The MetaHelmets, which will be among the first programmatically generated wearable collections, will bridge the gap between NFTs and the metaverse. When users acquire a MetaHelmet, they gain access to an exclusive community filled with events, challenges, and rewards.
Leading up to the launch, the M.T.A has been hosting scavenger hunts and quests, which have already attracted 6,000 users to be mintlisted for the pre-sale. Deep storylines, unlockable content, bounties and other exclusive activations will continue to be added for the exclusive community of MetaHelmet owners.
Each of the 10,101 helmets will be unique, and programmatically generated from over 120 custom 3D traits –visors, holographic projectors, outer shells, screens, and more. MetaHelmets’ “The Quantum Machine” feature allows users to display other NFTs they own directly on their MetaHelmet.
The M.T.A, Decentraland, and The Sandbox have worked closely together to allow users to wear their NFTs in the digital world. The MetaHelmet serves as an emblem of unity for metaverse projects, and a beacon of more collaborations to come.
Roberto Vivo, Founder of Kollectiff, the team behind The M.T.A., said, “The M.T.A. is the first metaverse-agnostic community that helps organize a multitude of rebels, dreamers, and builders that represent the future of the NFT space. Our goal is to support the growth of the metaverse and all the amazing projects that are taking shape within it. I am so excited to take the first steps alongside Decentraland and The Sandbox, the pioneers of the metaverse.”
When asked about the launch, Decentraland’s director Agustin Ferreira said, “We are very pleased to welcome the Kollectiff team and the M.T.A project to Decentraland. We anticipate that great experiences will be built in the metaverse around the MetaHelmets NFTs, as well as much more in the future.”
Sebastien Borget, Co-Founder and COO of The Sandbox shared Agustin’s excitement, saying, “The Kollectiff team has demonstrated a great creative vision on this project. We’re thrilled by the possibilities of interoperability and the many benefits that can be accessed with the launch of the MetaHelmet NFTs.“
In the near future, the M.T.A will announce an augmented reality (AR) platform partnership that allows owners to wear their MetaHelmets in the physical world. The M.T.A is continuing to grow its community to include more partners, more lore and more exclusive opportunities for token holders.
