First group of virtual islands for phase 2 now available ahead of major industry event.
BRIDGETOWN, BARBADOS and MALAGA, SPAIN and TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / November 22, 2021 / Oasis Digital Studios Limited ("Oasis"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc.(CSE:LQID)(OTCQB:LQAVF)(FRA:4T51), a global blockchain, digital identity and fintech solutions company, is pleased to announce that Oasis' client Aftermath Islands has received significant interest on the sales from its initial Phase 1 launch of Virtual Land and is now launching its initial Virtual Land sales for Phase 2 of its metaverse platform. Like the previous Phase 1 group of islands, some of which are already sold out, the platform is using Masscult's Waxify, the Shopify app that will enable Aftermath Islands storefront to easily bundle and offer Digital Collectibles on the Wax blockchain. As part of its development and release strategy, a limited number of single plots of Virtual Land representing 1000m2 are available at introductory prices now starting at $45 USD, and larger limited parcels of Virtual Land starting with 4 plots and as large as 100 plots are also available. Virtual Land can be purchased in Fiat, or traditional currencies, as well as select cryptocurrencies, using PayPal and Coinbase, with no gas fees, and automatically have the assets dropped to their connected wallets.
As with Phase 1, according to Aftermath Islands, Phase 2 will release, in total, over 7,500 parcels for themed, community and estate islands, with a value of approximately $1,750,000 USD. A portion of the available islands, plots and parcels are currently available in this release with the balance available just prior to the opening of Los Angeles Comic Con ("LACC") on December 3rd to 5th, 2021, with future phases currently in development.
Oasis' parent company, Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc., is the Digital Innovation Partner at this year's LACC, and has over 1,500 square feet of booth space, which it will share with Oasis (Booth #1241). Liquid Avatar Technologies will also participate in a Mainstage panel and other panels and is administering an augmented reality scavenger hunt for participants at the event. Prior to the pandemic, over 123,000 people attended the last live LACC in 2019. Other exclusive events and limited-edition and sales are planned for this event.
Limited brand and private island partnerships, similar to recently announced Vegas Island and Cannabis Cove, will allow consumer brands, entertainment, sports, Defi, fintech and other commercial organizations to build and manage their own experiences inside the Aftermath Islands metaverse.
Aftermath Islands is a planned metaverse, which is under an exclusive agency contract with Oasis. Previews are available for all themed, community and estate islands. Additional assets such as thematic dwellings designed for each island, community and estate are under development along with other interactive items which will also ultimately be available for sale as NFTs. All NFTs can be resold, at the discretion of the holder using 3rd party, non-affiliated marketplaces, and private sale programs.
Aftermath Islands will provide online users with theme-based first-person, Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) experiences, quests, games, and integrated eCommerce activities, creating a virtual world supported by users and brands. Under its exclusive agency contract, Oasis, will receive up to 30% of the revenue from all sales, including primary Virtual Land ("VL") and items, a portion of land and item resales, property management fees, together with a significant grant of VL, and exercisable equity in the platform. The Liquid Avatar Mobile App is also slated to play a role to support digital credentials required to manage Aftermath Islands metaverse accounts and asset verification.
All Aftermath Islands' players will also have access to create a Liquid Avatar account allowing them to manage their digital identity and certain ‘cross-over' assets and activities connecting their in-game activities to their real-world activities and engagement. Potential opportunities include managing avatars, items, integrated Augmented Reality (AR) events and programs, and purchasing conventional items like sneakers or trainers through KABN KASH and receiving exclusive bonuses, like matching digital assets for use in Aftermath Islands.
Aftermath Islands advises that in the coming months, updated white papers and technical reviews will be available, the initial governing counsel will be formed, and additional themes, new communities, and estates will open allowing players to own Virtual Land across a wide range of islands. For entertainment, financial, game, product, and other brands, select island environments will allow commercial operations and ownership, providing enterprises with the tools to create and support economic opportunities.

About Aftermath Islands - www.aftermathislands.com
Aftermath Islands as first described in the initial whitepaper published in 2017 and then subsequently updated, was based on the premise of a water-world with islands that represented destinations in a global virtual game. Since then, the Aftermath Islands metaverse has evolved and now represents exciting themed based islands, communities, and estates where players can experience a wide range of adventures and opportunities.
In Aftermath Islands' virtual world, users can buy, develop, trade, and sell Virtual Land (VL), property and assets, like buildings, crafted items, transport, and other items all through NFTs, a non-fungible token that represents the ownership of virtual and other assets. Each plot or parcel of VL is unique and owners get to choose what content they want to publish on their VL. This can range from simple scenery and structures to an interactive game, store, warehouse, dwelling, facility, or destination. Users can purchase VL as well as all other goods and services in Aftermath Islands with CREDITS, the current code name for in-game currency, fiat and other authorized currencies, coins, and tokens.
Aftermath Islands is a shared virtual world, much like the Metaverse described by author Ernest Cline in his science-fiction novels Ready Player One and Ready Player Two. Expected to launch mid-2022, Aftermath Islands will allow users to connect and interact with each other, create content, craft, participate in activities and quests and play games. Aftermath Islands will have a virtual economy where users can engage in a myriad of in-world economic transactions as well as monetize the content, items, quests, and applications they build.
