Novatar: Defining Your Virtual Identity
We live in an increasingly digital world where many of our day-to-day interactions take place on an online medium. We talk through our smartphones, we chat through them and through our PCs, we even socialize via digital mediums like Facebook, Twitter, and whatnot.
This, along with many other things, fuels the concept of a metaverse. The first to make a considerable stride in this direction was Mark Zuckerberg – Facebook’s Founder and CEO, who revealed that the company will be renamed to Meta and further capitalize on the digital frontier.
The concept of a metaverse has grown to be one of the hottest topics in the cryptocurrency field and beyond. In this conversation, your digital identity matters – it’s the user’s digital extension and how people would approach them.
With this said, it’s absolutely no wonder that profile picture projects (PFP) and online avatars are skyrocketing in popularity. Novatar is an upcoming project that aims to capture this attention and become a force to be reckoned with.
What is Novatar?
Novatar is a limited-edition collection of 25,000 non-fungible token avatars. An interesting trait of these is that they can age from a baby to an adult – something that’s not commonly seen amongst a lot of other projects.
Every single one of the AI-generated avatars has unique facial traits, characters, expressions, and in certain cases – even a profession. An example of how an adult Novatar would like is given below:
Starting from the beginning, users will be able to choose from a set of unique avatars in the form of newborn babies, each one of which comes with different facial features, expressions, races, and colors.
The aging technology would allow the user to make a choice to launch the process on the blockchain and reveal the adult version of their avatar. Alternatively, they can choose to keep using the cute baby instead.
In general, the main idea is for the users to take advantage of Novatars and use them as their new identities across social media and metaverses.
How Does it Work?
Starting off, users would have to buy a Novatar to gain a unique passing ticket into virtual life. All of the 25,000 non-fungible tokens (NFTs) will be in the form of newborn babies, each one being absolutely unique.
This is how the babies look like:
Users will then have 30 days to decide whether or not to let their novatars to age into an adult or remain a baby. There is a corresponding aging button that should be available on their official website.
If they choose to transform the baby into an adult, they will be able to enjoy its exciting genetic development. This specific feature where the baby transforms into an adult is advertised as an industry-first.
In addition, these Novatars will also serve as tickets to online and even offline events for Novatar NFT holders as the team plans to organize four key events.
