The upcoming token launched by Darewise will power a full ecosystem on Bitcoin for gaming, brands, and IRL experiences, and Life Beyond is the first gaming metaverse set to use the token for in-game assets, virtual lands, and more.

 

"We invested in Darewise and Life Beyond because we are drawn by its pioneering integration of the Bitcoin ecosystem and an immersive experience that promises to reshape the landscape of digital exploration and connectivity," said James Lim, founder of Blocore. 

 

A spokesperson of Citizen Capital, the official VC arm of NEO Tokyo, said: "Life Beyond is one of those projects you see and never forget. From the incredible artwork and aesthetics, to the robust lore detailed in the wiki, to the powerhouse team behind the scenes, every time you discover another layer of Life Beyond, you get more excited. We're thrilled to have been early investors alongside Animoca Brands, and cannot wait to see what the future holds for this project."

 

Benjamin Charbit, the CEO of Darewise, said: “For this round we are thrilled to welcome meaningful investors who not only believe in our project and values, but who also come from across the spectrum of gaming and Web3 culture. It’s a significant indicator of confidence in building on the Bitcoin ecosystem.”

 

The new Darewise ecosystem token is expected to be released in early 2024 with the support of Horizen Labs, a strategic technology provider who successfully launched ApeCoin.
