Introduction

Welcome to the future of the internet: The Metaverse

THE OZONE METAVERSE is a blockchain agnostic, cross chain, metaverse as a service platform powered by NFT and DeFi.

Some of us have already been spending 20-30 hours a week on the computer at work. The new generations are easily consuming 10 hours + of screen time outside of work-related computer needs. (https://edition.cnn.com/2016/06/30/health/americans-screen-time-nielsen/index. html)

The 2 iconic books “Snow Crash” in 1992, and “Ready Player One” in 2011 described a parallel virtual reality world which would be the epiphany of immersive computing. The term Virtual Reality was “first used in the mid-1980s when Jaron Lanier, founder of VPL Research, began to develop the gear, including goggles and gloves, needed to experience what he called “virtual reality.”’ (https://www.fi.edu/virtual-reality/history-of-virtual-reality)

The web and the internet powers most of our value exchange, social life, and overall society. Now the web and Virtual Reality are merging.

Thanks to new 3D Web technologies, the web page as we know it is evolving. It is becoming a web scene. With a combination of these scenes, we can create a world. An immersive Virtual World. A combination of these virtual worlds will become the METAVERSE

The OZONE METAVERSE features a powerful NFT marketplace that enables to bring NFTs to life, explore worlds in augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), mint NFTS for any type of assets, including social tokens which will provide access and governance mechanisms throughout the metaverse, get an NFT vehicle, pet, or mansion for your virtual world.

The OZONE METAVERSE boasts a highly scalable live audio & video streaming to interconnect.

Unlike other metaverses using Unity, Unreal, or other open-source game engines, the OZONE ENGINE is a proprietary METAVERSE NATIVE, custom-built, and high-performance cloud which will enable users to build fully customized and powerful metaverse experiences in the worlds they own.

The ZONE token, a cross-chain token, is used as the primary utility token within the OZONE METAVERSE. To build the ultimate METAVERSE ECOSYSTEM, we’ve partnered and will continue to partner with the best projects and technology teams in the industry to offer the best options to our expanding userbase

The Web Meets Virtual Reality

This immersive world can be delivered to any device via the web browser. The great thing is that it is also accessible in VR, right through the same web browser, with no download or update ever needed.

It is 100% sure that the future of the Internet will be 3D and immersive. It enables a better way to see our content, be together, and engage in a more natural way. “After all, the real world we live in is a 3D world” (Tony Parisi, Father of 3D WEB, VRML author 1994)

The OZONE METAVERSE team has spent the past 4 years developing a strategy to enable a WEB-BASED METAVERSE that would benefit and work for all, secured and powered by the blockchain and a new decentralized economy enabled by Blockchain technologies.

This project aspires at creating a new immersive human web interface, new applications, marketplaces for real and digital goods, and new ways of coming together for business and social encounters.

We dedicate this paper to the world before the Blockchain and to the children waiting for the future. Thank you to Tony Parisi and all the core creators of the technologies that enable us to build the metaverse for humanity

A new chance for the internet. A new Era where we can recreate the spirit of the free internet. The Web3 Decentralized Metaverse

Learning from all the shortfalls of the current internet, we can build a new paradigm. A decentralized 3D web that is focused on the user experience, and gives back the control to the user and community to have a custom experience, full privacy, better security, powered by the blockchain.

Most of all we see these new technologies as an opportunity to bring them together and establish a ubiquitous web-based virtual community and a new society in the metaverse.

Equal opportunity for all in the new virtual economy is made possible by the Blockchain, NFT’S, and cryptocurrency.

Everyone gets the opportunity to be an owner and participate.
