TORONTO --(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Tokens.com Corp. (NEO Exchange Canada: COIN)(Frankfurt Stock Exchange: 76M) (OTCQB US: SMURF) (“Tokens.com” or the “Company”), a publicly-traded company that builds web3 businesses and owns an inventory of digital assets, is pleased to report its financial results for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2023 (“Q3-2023 ”). All dollar figures are in United States dollars (“USD ”), unless otherwise stated.
Q3-2023 Operation Highlights:
The Company completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares from the minority ownership of Metaverse Group Ltd (“MGL ”), effectively owning 100% of MGL.
Metaverse Group Ltd added the team behind Startup Slang to its workforce and obtained exclusive access to its “Shoppable” technology, which links in-game purchase transactions to Shopify Plus storefronts.
Hulk Labs (“Hulk ”) announced the advanced development phase of creating a proprietary mobile phone-based web3 video game titled Astraeus Defense.
Management is focused on further growth of its businesses, Metaverse Group and Hulk Labs. Those businesses are focused on innovation in the web3 sector in ways that are not tied to the performance of cryptocurrencies. Both businesses have made great strides in providing corporate and brand partners with new ways to engage their customers. We are focused on developing new ecommerce platforms to assist our business clients in shifting from web2 to web3.
“During Q3, we have focused on investing in building IP in our platforms for future growth,” said Andrew Kiguel, CEO. “We have seen the sector developing quickly and believe that to succeed we need to stay ahead of the technology. Management is also actively seeking ways to scale, examining potential acquisitions, and preparing to aggressively pursue growth for the remainder of 2023 and beyond.”
Metaverse Group Update
In the face of prevailing economic headwinds, many Metaverse Group customers paused or scaled back their marketing budgets, leading to tempered Q3-2023 revenue. However, management remains optimistic by the growth of its pipeline, coupled with heightened interest from potential clients.
Metaverse Group’s dedication to staying at the forefront of technological advancements is evident as MGL harnesses capabilities like Apple's Vision Pro for Mixed Reality. Additionally, MGL announces its applications to development programs with both Apple and Unity, marking a significant stride in its journey.
As Metaverse Group builds its intellectual property, it is also paving the way for its inaugural e-commerce product designed to foster seamless transactions within 3D virtual environments.
Another highlight of MGL’s innovations is the development of its branded game portfolio. By collaborating with platforms such as Roblox and the Fortnite Create series, MGL is carving out a distinctive space for its brand in the gaming universe. These endeavors allow MGL not only to enhance its engagement with a wider audience but also to showcase the commitment to building emerging entertainment with state-of-the-art technology.
Hulk Labs Update
After the end of Q2-2023, Hulk Labs underwent a change in management and an operational review. The decision was made to no longer operate a player network. Hulk Labs still intends to use the Playte software to integrate third party players in its reviewed business plan. Going forward, Hulk will focus on gaming software and web3 game development.
During Q3-2023, Hulk Labs has made significant progress on its core focus of developing gaming software and announced development of a web3 game called Astraeus Defense. Hulk Labs has focused its business on three core areas 1) Analytics dashboards for web3 gamers 2) Web3 game development, with the first title called Astraeus Defense and 3) Service delivery partner of branded games for clients.
Hulk Labs is using the latest AI assistive tools in the game development process for Astraeus Defense. Hulk Labs uses AI tools in video development, character animation, art development, 3D asset development, voice acting and more areas to increase efficiency. Hulk Labs is constantly evaluating new tools and has received beta access to test new assistive AI technologies. Hulk sees a future where game development will be heavily influenced by the positive benefits of efficiency, cost reduction and creativity that assistive AI tools offer game designers. Another significant development in the web3 gaming space is Google enabling NFT’s in gaming apps in the Google Play Store.
Hulk Labs in partnership with Metaverse Group is building a branded game for a company in the furniture industry, being developed in Unreal Engine and will launch in the Epic Games Store for Back To School. The game will be used as a marketing tool by the client to promote their back-to-school offerings.
