介紹Metropolis，這是一個沉浸式虛擬平台，融合商業，遊戲，社會互動和文化

構建web3非常艱難，在元群中，這甚至更加艱難。在過去的幾年中，許多純粹的數字平台幾乎失敗了

People are naturally social creatures who enjoy immersing themselves in engaging experiences. In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, we are witnessing the convergence of several key trends, including the burgeoning Web3 revolution, the metaverse and the rapidly growing creator economy.

人們是自然的社會生物，他們喜歡沉浸在參與體驗中。在當今迅速發展的技術景觀中，我們目睹了幾種關鍵趨勢的融合，包括新興的Web3革命，元評估和迅速發展的創作者經濟。

At the forefront of this technological evolution stands Metropolis, an immersive virtual platform that seamlessly blends commerce, gaming, social interaction and culture.

這一技術進化的最前沿是大都市，這是一個沉浸式虛擬平台，無縫地融合了商業，遊戲，社會互動和文化。

To learn more about how the project is building a metaverse that creators and brands actually want to join, members of the community invited the founders of Metropolis, Rania Ajami and Rashid Ajami, for an exclusive session of Cointelegraph’s Ask Anything series.

為了更多地了解該項目是如何建立一個元評估的創作者和品牌實際想要加入的，社區成員邀請了Metropolis，Rania Ajami和Rashid Ajami的創始人，參加了Cointelegraph的“問賽”系列的獨家會議。

The siblings, who previously pursued careers in the entertainment, film and music industries before founding Metropolis, chatted with members of the community about the project’s journey so far.

兄弟姐妹在創立大都會之前以前從事娛樂，電影和音樂行業的職業，與社區成員聊了聊，迄今為止該項目的旅程。

As they explained, they were motivated by the shortcomings of purely digital platforms, most of which failed to gain lasting traction with users despite the efforts of capable teams and significant capital investment.

正如他們所解釋的那樣，他們的動機是純粹的數字平台的缺點，儘管有能力的團隊和巨大的資本投資，但其中大多數仍未與用戶獲得持久的吸引力。

In contrast, platforms that provide a hybrid vision of physical and digital experiences, such as Twitch and Discord, have managed to build strong communities and generate enduring interest among users. Metropolis was created to fill this gap.

相比之下，提供了諸如Twitch和Discord之類的物理和數字體驗的混合願景的平台已設法建立了強大的社區並引起了用戶之間的持久興趣。大都會是為了填補這一空白而創建的。

“From the beginning, we wanted to create a dynamic and vibrant world for people to connect with. We wanted to evoke emotions through storytelling while bridging physical and digital experiences,” said Rania.

“從一開始，我們想創建一個充滿活力，充滿活力的世界供人們建立聯繫。我們想通過講故事來喚起情緒，同時彌補身體和數字體驗。”拉尼亞說。

Adding to this thought, Rashid said that creators today are faced with a limited set of options.

拉希德（Rashid）表示，今天的創作者面臨著一套有限的選擇。

“On the one hand, we have Twitter and Instagram, where most creators spend their time and capital, and on the one hand, there are metaverses that have not yet been adopted. We’re filling the gap between them: you can easily customize, get in and out of our immersive world.”

“一方面，我們有Twitter和Instagram，大多數創作者在這里花費時間和資本，一方面，尚未採用元元素。我們正在填補它們之間的空白：您可以輕鬆自定義，進出我們的身臨其境的世界。”

This ability to easily customize and engage with the world of Metropolis is crucial for creators. As Rania explained, the project’s virtual city spans more than 500 unique locations — from jungles, residential homes and party houses to art galleries, exclusive clubs and DJ towers — each with its own lore, characters and storylines.

這種輕鬆自定義和與大都市世界互動的能力對於創造者至關重要。正如拉尼亞（Rania）所解釋的那樣，該項目的虛擬城市跨越了500多個獨特的地點，從叢林，住宅和派對房屋到美術館，獨傢俱樂部和DJ塔樓 - 每個都有自己的知識，角色和故事情節。

The virtual city allows anyone to host digital events, build and engage communities, stream content and sell artwork in their own customized spaces. To ensure variety and engagement, the project is hand-picking amazing creators and artists from fashion, film, music and more.

虛擬城市允許任何人在自己的定制空間中舉辦數字活動，建立和參與社區，流式傳輸內容並出售藝術品。為了確保多樣性和參與度，該項目正在挑選出來自時尚，電影，音樂等的驚人創作者和藝術家。

“We are also working closely with a select group of brands that align with our vision and values to create truly unique and meaningful experiences for our users,” said Rania, adding that the project has already signed over 400 partnerships with Yung Gravy, Steve Aoki, Christian Cowan, Blondish, Mike Shinoda and many more.

Rania說：“我們還與一組與我們的願景和價值觀相吻合的品牌緊密合作，為我們的用戶創造真正獨特而有意義的體驗。” Rania補充說，該項目已經與Yung Gravy，Steve Aoki，Christian Cowan，Christian Cowan，Blondish，Blondish，Mike Shinoda等簽署了400多個合作夥伴關係。

“They can get properties and AI agents that you can train to be your own character and create mini-games and chat groups that are segmented and token-gated. So you have your own world in one place as opposed to a more generic scroll feed that you get with an Instagram profile.”

“他們可以獲得您可以訓練成為自己角色的屬性和人工智能代理，並創建分割和令牌門控的迷你游戲和聊天組。因此，您在一個地方擁有自己的世界，而不是通過Instagram個人資料獲得的更通用的捲軸供稿。”

After obtaining a passport, gaining full access and choosing an avatar, users can visit Metropolis X — the platform’s gamified marketplace — to explore locations and experiences and create their own places.

在獲得護照，獲得完整的訪問權限並選擇頭像之後，用戶可以訪問該平台的遊戲市場大都市X（Metropolis X），以探索位置和體驗並創建自己的位置。

“Say you have a DJ mix, and you want it to be exclusive. You can turn it into your NFT in Metropolis X. It can also be used in an environment and further amplify your brand as a DJ or creator,” said Rashid.

“說您有DJ混合物，您希望它是獨家的。您可以將其變成Metropolis X中的NFT。它也可以在環境中使用，並進一步擴大您的品牌作為DJ或創作者，” Rashid說。

The speakers also noted that the project is focused on removing traditional Web3 barriers.

演講者還指出，該項目的重點是消除傳統的Web3障礙。

“While we support custodial wallets, you can only use your credit card within our marketplace.”

“儘管我們支持託管錢包，但您只能在我們的市場中使用信用卡。”

The project also launched a token, CLAY, to complement the project’s vision. As Rania explained, it’s not the kind of pump-and-dump memecoin or a token for trading, but to facilitate real experiences in the Metropolis world on multiple levels.

該項目還推出了一個令牌Clay，以補充項目的願景。正如拉尼亞（Rania）所解釋的那樣，它不是那種用於交易的泵送和降低的成員，而是促進大都市世界中多個層次的真實體驗。

“Yes, it’s very much like an ecosystem token that allows you to access and transact within the ecosystem. CLAY unlocks quests, early access to products, discounts, meeting groups with different creators and brands, leveling up in the games, ways to customize your property and so on,” said Rashid, adding that CLAY staking is available to Metropolis users now, with more options and governance features to be added in the future.

“是的，這非常像一個生態系統令牌，使您可以在生態系統中訪問和交易。粘土解鎖任務，早期訪問產品，折扣，與不同的創作者和品牌會面，在遊戲中升級，自定義您的財產等等。
