Lyfe, the first music artist to debut its own Metaverse
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.

WOM Protocol: Pioneering the Future of SocialFi with a Powerful Layer 1 Solution
WOM Protocol was early to the SocialFi space back in 2020 – when the path to revolutionizing marketing wasn’t easy. SocialFi faced hard times in recent years, with many “to-earn” models failing to match the user retention seen in Web2 social networks. But through relentless innovation, WOM has shown remarkable persistence. Thanks to its engaging daily reward mechanism, users didn’t just stick around – they grew. Now, with the numbers to prove its impact, WOM is making its boldest move yet: launching a powerful EVM Layer 1 blockchain infrastructure redefine authenticity, trust and community in a decentralized world.
And the Timing Couldn’t Be Better
Traditional ads are fading – and consumers are tuning out. People are tired of ads, and the numbers say it all. 70% of millennials and Gen Z have stopped watching TV ads, 65% skip YouTube ads, and 86% are blind to banners and pop-ups. Even influencers are losing credibility, with 43% of consumers finding their content fake. Traditional advertising isn’t just annoying; it’s ineffective. It’s time for a new approach that feels real, builds trust and actually connects with people.
The WOM Solution: Rewarding Authentic Advocacy
WOM Protocol leverages blockchain to reward genuine peer-to-peer recommendations, replacing intrusive ads with authentic user-generated content (UGC). The protocol’s ecosystem includes:
- Creators: Share authentic product recommendations and earn WOM Tokens .
- Authenticators: Verify content authenticity, creativity, and positivity .
- Platforms: Integrate the protocol and monetize through WOM rewards instead of ads .
- Brands: Access genuine, peer-validated recommendations to connect authentically with consumers .
This decentralized ecosystem ensures that everyone—from content creators to validators to platforms—has aligned incentives to maintain authenticity and quality.
The Power of Authentic Content in 2024
Recent statistics highlight the growing importance of authentic, user-generated content (UGC) in the marketing landscape:
- 60% of consumers trust UGC more than any other type of content when making purchasing decisions.
- 40% of shoppers say UGC is critical to their buying process.
- 93% of marketers report that UGC performs better than branded content.
- 90% of consumers are influenced by UGC when making a purchase.
These insights underscore the effectiveness of genuine peer-driven content in driving brand engagement and sales. In an age where consumers crave authenticity, WOM Protocol provides the infrastructure to capitalize on this behavior.
WOM Protocol’s Achievements
Since its launch, WOM Protocol has demonstrated consistent growth and sustainability:
- Over 281,000 Peer-Reviewed Videos
- Daily Transactions: The ecosystem handles between 50,000 to 200,000 daily transactions, including content creation, staking and reward distribution.
- Sustainable Rewards: WOM Protocol has distributed rewards daily over the past few years to a growing user base of creators, authenticators, and platforms who continuously contribute to the network.
- Powerful Tools: The WOM Campaign Manager allows advertisers to access authentic UGC and run targeted campaigns. The WOM Authenticator App enables users to validate content from the BULLZ app, ensuring no piece of content goes unreviewed. This validation process has led to an impressive +40% retention rate among users.
- BULLZ App Success: The BULLZ app, dedicated to web3 and crypto recommendations, has grown to over 158,000 users and generated more than 12 million views. The app also features a separate BULLZ campaign manager for web3 brands to request videos directly from the BULLZ creator community.
This sustained reward distribution and suite of innovative tools ensure that participants are consistently incentivized, reinforcing a thriving and collaborative ecosystem.
Why WOM Needs a Dedicated Layer 1 Blockchain
The success of WOM Protocol has shown the need for a scalable, efficient infrastructure to handle rising transaction volumes and to reduce fees for its growing user base. To achieve this, WOM has developed in 2024 its own EVM based Layer 1 infrastructure, capable of processing 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) with fees as low as $0.0001. This powerful EVM ensures fast and seamless interactions for creators, authenticators, platforms and advertisers. With a public testnet launching in Q1 2025 and a mainnet in Q2 2025, the WOM Chain will drive full decentralization, paving the way for community-driven governance and the transition to a DAO where users collectively shape the future. WOM Protocol is more than just a marketing tool – it’s the engine of a decentralized, authentic and user-driven economy.

0xFútbol Announces Exclusive $FUTBOL Presale to Celebrate XDC’s Strategic Investment
For decades, fútbol’s ecosystem has upheld a status quo that leaves fans disconnected—without a voice, a stake, or a meaningful way to be part of the game they love. Despite fútbol’s global popularity, there has been no unified platform that truly empowers fans or brings them closer to the sport in transformative ways.
Founded by visionary builders from Uruguay and Argentina, 0xFútbol is changing the game. By leveraging blockchain technology, they are creating a digital hub for the world’s 4 billion fútbol fans—a place where they can connect, compete, and even own a piece of fútbol’s future. 0xFútbol transforms watchers into owners, redefining what it means to be a fútbol fan in the modern era.
From watchers to owners
The fútbol community is vast, yet fragmented. 0xFútbol’s mission is to bring it together by delivering engaging experiences that resonate with every fan. From games to tools, every product is a step toward building a thriving, interconnected community.
0xFútbol recently acquired MetaSoccer, the first fútbol manager game, and has been actively working to improve and expand its features. Now in its private beta phase, MetaSoccer has already captivated over 40,000 fans with its innovative approach to managing teams and competing using blockchain-based assets. Alongside MetaSoccer, 0xFútbol is developing additional products like Fútbol PM, a prediction market where fans can showcase their knowledge, and Wonderkid, a hyper-casual Telegram game designed for quick, competitive fun.
Every new fan strengthens the community. With each voice added, the collective power of fútbol fans grows, paving the way to shake up the status quo. Together, 0xFútbol isn’t just building products—it’s building a movement.
“Imagine millions of fútbol fans united in one ecosystem. The energy, the culture, the shared passion—this is the future 0xFútbol is building. It’s a future where fans actively shape the game they love, not just watch from the sidelines.” Says Agu Rodríguez, CEO.
$FUTBOL Presale with XDC Network
In a significant milestone, the XDC Network has joined 0xFútbol as a strategic investor, recognizing the platform’s potential to transform fútbol through blockchain. This partnership represents a major step forward in 0xFútbol’s journey to create a unified and interactive fútbol ecosystem.
As part of this collaboration, 0xFútbol will host an exclusive presale for the XDC community starting on December 16th. This presale offers early supporters a chance to acquire the $FUTBOL token, which powers the entire 0xFútbol ecosystem.
The $FUTBOL token is more than just a digital asset—it’s the backbone of the platform. It enables users to access key products like MetaSoccer and Fútbol PM, participate in governance, and unlock future opportunities as the ecosystem grows. With $FUTBOL, fans are empowered to move from spectatorship to ownership, shaping the future of fútbol while engaging with innovative products and experiences.
This collaboration with XDC highlights the growing recognition of 0xFútbol’s potential to revolutionize how fútbol fans interact with the sport. By combining blockchain innovation with fútbol culture, 0xFútbol is positioning itself as a leader in the Web3 fútbol space.
