Monkey Kingdom Hosts Steve Aoki Metaverse Concert

Metaverse platform Monkey Kingdom is celebrating the successful launch of its Solana blockchain-based virtual environment with a Christmas party performance with award-winning DJ, Steve Aoki.

Hosted on the Cryptovoxels Metaverse event space, the Grammy-nominated artist will kick off an hour-long set on a “temple-inspired” immersive stage. Taiwanese artist Dizzy Dizzo will also open the concert.
In a statement, a Monkey Kingdom spokesperson said,

“[We] would like to extend a warm invitation to all holders and members of the community, as well as any guests and fans that simply wish to join the festivities or tune in to view the performance – ushering in the holiday season as a united collective”
Aoki’s ape-themed NFTs has expanded to seven collectable tokens similarly to artworks from the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC), and launched the collection with 2,222 monkey avatars last month.
The concert’s promotion of NFTs aims to expand ownership of digital assets on the Metaverse as well as monetise content from creatives across multiple industries.

According to reports, more than $10 billion NFTs were traded on several blockchain platforms, up from $1.2 billion in the second quarter this year.
