Problem Statement:

The Cardano community is growing significantly around the world, and such significant growth requires adequate communication tools that technological innovation offers us. Current communications are done through static and impersonal interfaces with limited capabilities media, such as Zoom, Youtube, Telegram, Twitter, Reddit, Discord, etc...There is currently no space that would provide an immersive and interactive experience of communication and networking for Cardano community meetings. The Cardano community doesn't have any interactive community center, where people could join, meet and network. Everyone has seen the success of the Cardano Summit, an event that provides opportunities to bound communities all around the world and creates a space for networking and connecting members. Such a networking event should not occur only once a year.

Describe your solution to the problem:

We believe that a solution could be provided by the Metaverse. We plan to call it a "MetaCenter", a representative virtual space where all members would feel proud to be part of the Cardano Community. The MetaCenter would be the right space for a superior and innovative experience for Cardano community meetings in the Metaverse. We believe that bringing Cardano Community to the Metaverse can provide a novel kind of experience that could create opportunities to bound members, build new friendships, share know-how and share the overall vision of the Cardano ecosystem by building a new metaverse society of web 3.0. 

MetaCenter

The multifunctional building provides space for the community to organize from small events to large-scale events.

- Congress hall

- Small community hubs

- VIP lounge

- Networking zone

Catalyst Program

MetaCenter could be the perfect space for the Catalyst program to be deployed. Bringing Catalyst to the Metaverse could provide more entertainment and a more immersive experience of feeling to be part of the community.

- Catalyst Weekly Townhall

- Important Announcements

- Workshops

- Community hubs

- Ceremony for winners of Catalyst funds

Just the fact that Cardano would be one of the first crypto communities functioning in Metaverse could bring attention and increase adoption. It could accelerate and spread its vision to become a truly decentralized society.

Somnium Space

The most technologically advanced decentralised metaverse with a fully functional ecosystem of parcels and ownerships all build in a truly wonderful giant decentralised and virtual land. We believe that Somnium space metaverse is the right place to have the first Cardano MetaCenter.

Why Somnium Space metaverse?

- full VR (virtual reality) support

- decentralized metaverse

- Technologically the most advanced

- Mature community

- Not overcrowded yet

Somnium space supports only Ethereum (OpenSea) and Solana (Solanart) at this moment.
