Penpenz: Vision & Roadmap
Leveraging the popularity of CryptoNinja, Rio created Penpenz to raise the profile of the Xana metaverse platform.
“With the release of Penpenz, I hope to attract new users to the XANA metaverse. Our metaverse project is still in its early stages, and we want more people to experience our platform to feel the potential of XANA and its ecosystem,” Rio said in his recent podcast show.
In return, XANA plans to support CryptoNinja’s IP development using its Metaverse platform in the future.
Although Rio hasn’t provided details of the roadmap yet, he plans to provide utilities related to the XANA ecosystem. So far, he has mentioned the following as possible utilities for Penpenz holders:
- AL for the NFTDUEL play-to-earn game.
- AL for future wearable NFT collections
- Perks for XANA metaverse events
“I am in discussion with the community regarding utilities and hope to make an announcement soon,” he said.
