Metapolis, whose suffix means ‘city’ in Greek, is designed as a cutting-edge extended reality (XR metaverse)- an amalgamation of AR and VR — and is powered by Zilliqa’s scalable and secure blockchain platform. Metapolis will allow conceptually-rich and custom-designed domes as part of cities that can house brands, artists, concepts, games, e-stores, real estate or other digital experiences — offering a new layer of engagement for both the physical and digital worlds. Metapolis looks to be self-sustaining and includes engagement layers such as NFTs, e-commerce, play-to-earn, digital mannequins, advertising billboards and more! Metapolis has been built for all and to accommodate a range of user-friendly functionalities for those in and outside the crypto domain — with a special focus on intuitive onboarding for the latter group. Accessible through personalized handles like social media platforms, it will be able to integrate social media, e-commerce, mobile and web.

At Zilliqa, we leverage on our silicon-smooth, speedy and cost-effective blockchain platform to catalyze and transform digital infrastructure across all global communities and industries. We're committed to delivering a scalable and secure platform for developers and enterprises who wish to build decentralized applications. Our unique application of sharding allows the blockchain to scale in a linear fashion. This ensures that the Zilliqa platform can scale to meet the needs of a growing ecosystem of miners and applications. Zilliqa is powered by the first peer- reviewed and safe-by-design smart contract language called Scilla. Using functional programming design principles (as in OCaml) allows it to be more friendly towards static checks and formal verification. Thanks to Zilliqa's consensus mechanism, the ecological footprint of mining has considerably been reduced. Only 1 minute out of every 2-3 hours is needed to mine ZIL, allowing one to dual-mine other chains at the same time.
