In partnership with Bloktopia, high-end global sneaker marketplace The Edit Ldn is venturing into the metaverse. The premium virtual store is the place where the next generation of sneakerheads will find digital wearables, including the Edit LDN sneaker NFT, which can be used to outfit an avatar in the metaverse. In fact, these digital wearables can be worn in many metaverses beyond this one.
"We're finding our audience is more digitally focussed, has an interest in Crypto and NFTs, and has an increasing desire to attain products in different ways," said Moses Rashid, founder of The Edit Ldn.
Bloktopia is a VR Skyscraper made up of 21 levels and it's a place where people can explore the future of shopping, fashion and self-expression.
