Elon Musk’s ex-girlfriend Grimes has signed on with a popular altcoin project to start a children’s metaverse book project. The project, announced during the Avalanche Summit on Friday, is part of the Avalanche Foundation and OP3N’s $100 million Culture Catalyst initiative to get creators to build projects on Avalanche.
Metaverse book will be the first project funded in the Culture Catalyst initiative
Grimes’ book project is the first specifically funded project in the Culture Catalyst fund. Dubbed the “intergalactic children’s metaverse book,” the book consists of a series of educational arts for babies and toddlers. Through this project, Grimes aims to create “a profound experience for babies that has profound meaning for adults as well.” “When I first got into Web 3, it was the kind of project I expected to see,” Grimes said in a statement. He also hopes that the project can follow in the footsteps of My Neighbor Totoro, a famous Studio Ghibli movie.
Active in the NFT space, Grimes sold approximately $6 million worth of WarNymph collections last year. In addition, the artist was also included in TikTok’s NFT collection. OP3N describes itself as a launchpad to empower developers on Web 3 and is partnering with the Avalanche Foundation to launch the $100 million initiative. The project, called “Culture Catalyst”, will also include Grimes’ book project.
