What is TheMall?

TheMall is currently the world’s largest virtual mall. It is a tower with 100 floors that will eventually offer 100 million square feet of retail and entertainment space.

Built using the MetaVRse Engine, a web-based, low-code 3D creation platform, the project aims to revolutionize the digital shopping landscape. It aims to transform it into a “social and exploratory adventure”. The ultimate goal is not to merely replicate real-world shopping but to create a novel experience that transcends the ordinary.

“Our goal is to be the No. 1 retail and entertainment destination in the metaverse and we believe that by starting with the familiar we can bring people that are not crypto natives,” MetaVRse co-founder Alan Smithson said. “We were not focused on the crypto bro culture at all. We want to bring in just everyday people into this and it starts with video gamers and then goes out from there.”
