The Web3 world went through a major adjustment in 2022 for two big reasons:

1.  Significant growing pains due to fake accounts, bots, crypto scams and other nefarious strategies deployed by digital predators, fraudsters, spammers, hackers and other bad actors.  Nowhere was this more evident than in the case of Twitter where new owner Elon Musk has embarked on a mission to rid the platform of a bot plague that threatened the very existence of the platform 

2.  Overhyped and mass promoted NFT “projects” that attracted billions of dollars yet turned out to be nothing more than empty plans or, even worse, “rug pulls” in which the project creators simply absconded with people’s money  

We have seen this before in the dot-com to dot-bomb days when “internet stocks” boomed and busted, leading many people to say the sector was dead.  As we now know that was the farthest from the truth as the industry catharsis created Web2 driven by real companies with real products and real business models.

So logic now dictates that investors start looking for the real Metaverse and NFT projects that have survived the catharsis and are actually thriving.

LIQUID AVATAR USERS HAVE COLLECTED 1.2 BILLION+ RESOURCES AND CREATED 1.5 MILLION+ NFTS 

The Company’s flagship Aftermath Islands Metaverse and NFT project is an open-world massively multi-player game environment built with stunning graphics on the Unreal Engine and supported by Free-to-Play and Earn Gaming, the highlights of which are as follows: 

• Has already generated ~ $CDN 2M in net sales
• Players can interact with non-player characters
• First ever Metaverse to deploy Blockchain Proof Of Humanity from $LQID to create safety, trust, privacy
• Users have collected over 1.2 BILLION resources 
• Created over 1.5 MILLION Resource Pack NFTs
• Users engaging for upwards of 70 minutes per day on the platform

It is fair to say that $LQID is delivering a real metaverse with real digital assets and a real business model.

“PROOF OF HUMANITY” IS A GROUNDBREAKING BOT BREAKER 

A big part of the success behind the previous announcement is $LQID “Proof Of Humanity technology that can be summarized as follows: 

• Allows Users To Remain Anonymous
• But Still Verify They Are A Real Person, Through Blockchain Based Verifiable Credentials
• Eliminates Fraudulent Activities, Fake Accounts, Duplicate Accounts And Bots.

More than just lip service $LQID put its money where its mouth is by deploying the technology into its own metaverse in late 2022:

Liquid Avatar Technologies and Aftermath Islands Metaverse Deploy Blockchain Proof of Humanity to Create a Safer, Private Online Experience and Eliminate Usernames and Passwords.  

This “Proof Of Humanity is a Web3 and Metaverse first - to the best of everyone’s knowledge - and can best be best described by the following quote excerpts from $LQID:

“With Web3 and the Metaverse, we have an opportunity to change the failures of previous iterations of the Internet that failed to provide protection for privacy and data and assurances that only real people exist in an online space. We would never accept this kind of behavior in the real world and we now have the opportunity to create safe and unique spaces.”

“the deployment of blockchain-based verifiable credentials for Proof of Humanity - available via the Liquid Avatar Mobile App - provides assurances that allows Aftermath Islands Metaverse and other websites, eCommerce, social platform and other Metaverse users to establish a digital footprint that proves they are genuine individuals without having to divulge sensitive government issued identity or proof of address, creating a high degree of trust or privacy in the Web3 world by establishing one-user, one-account verification.”

But wait, that’s not all…

Today the company announced: Liquid Avatar Technologies and Aftermath Islands set to launch Artificial Intelligence powered Avatars in the Metaverse.

What exactly does this mean?

AI enabled virtual brand ambassadors will provide 24/7/365 service, education, information, and eCommerce subject matter expertise creating new engagement and revenue opportunities.  

Having completed initial development, training and testing, AI avatars are already starting to emerge in the Aftermath Metaverse, with a fully interactive rollout this quarter inside the Aftermath Islands Metaverse, which provides high fidelity graphics and a no download experience.  

What does David Lucatch, CEO of Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc. and Managing Director of Aftermath Islands Metaverse have to say?

“Artificial Intelligence applications like ChatGPT provide the opportunity for brands, retailers, educators, governments, and other types of organizations to move from static based information push models to truly interactive capabilities in the Metaverse, creating new and innovative ways to create awareness, engagement, activation and conversion. We are already seeing strong commercial interest, as AI powered avatars can naturally interact with users and can recommend solutions that can be “clicked” within the Aftermath Islands to instantly launch access to a host of web activities including eCommerce sites to support revenue-based activities.”
