CyberConnect is Web3’s earliest and biggest decentralized social network; it enables developers to create social applications empowering users to own their digital identity, content, connections, and monetization channels. CyberConnect consists of two user-focused features: CyberProfile, a decentralized identity standard that provides access to Web3; and CyberConnect Social Graph, which links your digital identity, data, content, and friends. 

 

Mocaverse is the PFP NFT collection of the Animoca Brands ecosystem. The project aims to drive the exchange of ideas and learning opportunities, connect people and projects, support builders, and cultivate a resilient Web3 culture. The collection comprises 8,888 NFTs of characters called Mocas, each belonging to one of five tribes: Dreamers, Builders, Angels, Connectors, and Neo-Capitalists.

 

Through this strategic partnership, Mocaverse and CyberConnect will empower Mocaverse NFT holders to build their Web3 social reputation, establish meaningful connections, and co-create value through the various aspects of Mocaverse, including Moca XP, Realm Tickets, and NFTs. 

 

Alan Lau, chief business officer of Animoca Brands, commented: “CyberConnect’s scalable and composable cross-chain infrastructure is going to play an instrumental role in scaling Mocaverse’s growth across applications, creating endless social experiences for the Mocaverse community. With our shared vision on enabling true digital asset ownership, and by seeding the platform with Animoca Brands’ ecosystem partners, we believe that this partnership will bring net positive value not only to Mocaverse and Realm Ticket holders, but also to the wider Web3 industry.”

 

“We are incredibly excited to collaborate with Animoca Brands and its groundbreaking Mocaverse project,” said Wilson Wei, CEO of CyberConnect. “This partnership represents a monumental step forward in redefining social networking and community-building in the Web3 era. Together, we are empowering individuals by prioritizing their ownership, privacy, and creative freedom, fostering a truly decentralized and social digital world. Our collective vision is to unleash the untapped potential of the Internet, where individuals can seamlessly connect, collaborate, and co-create the future of the decentralized web.”

 

To kickstart the partnership, Mocaverse will leverage CyberConnect’s protocol to tokenize the content of Mocaverse and Mocaverse NFT holders on to the Link3 platform, a Web3-native social network built on the CyberConnect protocol. This will be the first step to put content ownership and engagement on-chain, as it will enable Mocaverse NFT holders to own the content they create, and their engagement with each other will generate Moca XP, the points and rewards system of Mocaverse.
