Miami-based entrepreneur Antonio Trincao, a.k.a. Lyfe, has unveiled the imminent release of his music album and the most innovative entertainment experiences and concerts in his own unique medium: The Odyssey Metaverse.

Introducing Lyfe from The Odyssey

After turning his career from being a tech entrepreneur to a full time music artist, Antonio Trincao a.ka. Lyfe shares how he got to do this transition in his career:

“My dream is to create music that becomes the bridge for anyone to start pursuing their own dreams. I believe that we live in a period in time that we are going through a global spiritual awakening, where people will actually want to break free. My generation wants to eat well, exercise, study, learn, dream and celebrate life in the most meaningful manner.

We want to make money and live our life by doing what we love.

I came to terms that I want to pursue what I love. And I found that one of the main pillars of this revolution of “pursuing what you love” will be the Metaverse. I think if done right, it will become the foundation that allows people to ideate, create and pursue their dreams, and develop their own businesses in a transparent and truly engaging online world.

The thing I’m proud, is that we actually have a Metaverse platform that works, has beautiful 3D graphics that provides a pleasant experience for fans, has engaging features that as an example allows fans to meet me virtually and see me, and works in any smartphone or laptop. No headsets needed.

On the other hand I also love real life. I love people. I love performing, but the power that a virtual world platform gives to you is unbelievable, because there is no limit of what you can do.

So I want to revolutionize the entertainment industry by co-ideating with my fans the most spectacular worlds, and perform the most unique concert experiences first in The Odyssey and then replicating in real life.”

Lyfe shared that he gained this knowledge after producing a virtual concert back in 2020 with super stars Farina and Toosii that had more than 40,000 attendees and 1,000,000 views across social media platforms.

The former tech entrepreneur shares also shared that the first step to be part embark on this journey is getting the Lyfe book.

“I decided to create a book with 6 chapters, with a strong focus on my life journey until now as an entrepreneur. Not from a place of ego, but more from a place of vulnerability so that people understand why I am doing this.

In 2020 I had one of the most turbulent years of my life after pivoting my first company (events marketplace) to a virtual events platform, face rapid growth and fail to deliver product to customers.

This led to a huge financial crisis and debt and something that was the catalyst to really ask what do I want to do with my life!

Building something out of nothing, and tell a story with true purpose, it’s probably one of the best feelings in life. You really feel like a pirate on the discovery of the unknown. Although my problem is that I never truly pursued the purpose I believed in, in the way that I’m truly made to pursue. In the way that I truly love, and in the way that I know I’m gifted. Through music.”

The Lyfe NFT Book

On June 20th, 2022, Lyfe unveils the real-life NFT book with a limited edition of 50,000 copies, that contains the journey for Lyfe fans including his story, the why of his music, and citizenship passes to access The Odyssey Metaverse entertainment experiences.

Lyfe journey to The Odyssey shared in the Book

Lyfe and his team have created a journey that serves the purpose of his music.

Empowering humans to bring their dreams to life.

Lyfe states “I feel that the world has lost its soul, and at the same time we are looking to feel more spiritually connected. My music and the type of concert experiences that I will create for my fans will help them discover their passions, and what they truly love. This book, the music and experiences that I create it’s all about helping you get there.”

The First Step

Lyfe is dropping the first song from his album, with the sole purpose of empowering his fans to pursue what they love in life.

Those holding Lyfe’s NFT book will also have a partial royalty on the song launch.

Lyfe shared “My dream is that the song translates the messaging behind the Lyfe Revolution, which serves has a daily ignitor and catalyst to help humans pursue the very best version of themselves.

On top of that, I believe this is the first time of the history of our civilization that we can actually break free, achieve the financial freedom that we always dreamed about and truly pursue what our heart and dreams wants. Therefore all the holders of the book should have a partial royalty, because this song was made for them. To support them. To empower them.” 

The Second Step

Lyfe is challenging all its community members to get the Galatian NFT a collection of 7,777 characters with the sole goal of doing the #lyfexercise a 5-day tech detox.

Galatians will have to turn off their smartphones, laptops, and hardware devices during this period. Instead of using their devices, they will have to connect with their inner spiritual soul by writing and thinking about various questions such as:

●  What makes them happy?

●  What are their fears?

●  What are their dreams?

●  What have they accomplished in the last 2, 3, 5, or 10 years?

●  What are they ashamed of?

After completing the challenge, members will be rewarded with an exclusive Lyfe metaverse video concert airdrop and special merch members only sale.

Lyfe shared “I want my fans to feel empowered from day one. I want them to think about what they truly love in life. And let my music be their daily friend that comes and says hi while they go on that journey.”

The Third Step

Lyfe will launch the y-Chains, a 2,000 edition in real life, and Metaverse chains, giving Lyfe fans “The Galatians” a citizenship pass in The Odyssey Metaverse. The citizenship pass will feature two elements:

●  Full features that come with the citizenship, including video calls, shopping in-world, events, so that Lyfe Fans “The Galatians” can meet Lyfe and other members, and participate in experiences

●  Access to the all areas of The Odyssey and discovery Lyfe’s most unique entertainment experiences.


Lyfe quotes:

“My vision is actually to create entertainment experiences designed by the fans. I want to co-build concerts with my fans and community. I want them to ideate experiences, create products, organize event experiences so we can build the most unique entertainment experiences that the world has ever seen.”

Lyfe shared with our team that, more chapters will be unlocked after the Chapter 3 y-Chains but as of right now remain in secrecy and will be only revealed upon completion.

Lyfe also states his wish to help shift from the culture of “addiction” and overuse of online platforms like Facebook or Instagram:

“One of the very first things I want to achieve with our community that we are creating is that my fans have a limit of 4 hours a day of usage in The Odyssey. My team and I think 4 hours will allow fans to experience the best entertainment experiences online, meeting other like-minded fans and still enjoy the outside world and spend time in real life.”

About Lyfe

Antonio Trincao, a.k.a. Lyfe, is an artist and entrepreneur based in Miami, Florida. 

“I see myself more as a Steward of the message: Pursue what you love. I want to create music that endures the purpose of this community. Now, I am actively recruiting to fill all executive positions, including CEO and COO to help operate The Odyssey which will be the playground for my fans and my concert experiences, while I focus on what I love… Music!”

The Odyssey aims to become a defining project in crypto, NFTs, and the Metaverse. Lyfe and his project will launch a summer tour of events, starting with the official launch during NFT NYC, where fans can meet Lyfe and get to learn more about his vision in person.
