Galaxia Metaverse Opens Curation-Based NFT Platform 'MetaGalaxia' on the 1st

[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] Blockchain specialist company Galaxia Metaverse's curation-based NFT platform ‘Metagalaxia’ officially opens today, the 1st. Over the past month, Metagalaxia showcased NFTs including those of marathon legend Lee Bong-ju and digital art NFTs through its teaser site.

NFT (Non Fungible Token) is a digital asset with uniqueness and scarcity. It can digitize real-world items into one-of-a-kind assets, gaining attention from the digital generation. Additionally, it is attracting interest among creators as it technically recognizes the value of creativity and allows for tradability.

Since its establishment in May, Galaxia Metaverse has secured IP (intellectual property) that can be NFT-ized across various fields such as sports, broadcasting, digital art, entertainment, photography, and fine arts. It holds the largest number of IPs in sports domestically. On the officially launched ‘Metagalaxia’ platform, visitors can first encounter digital art works created by artist Park Seung-woo (KAZE Park), themed around volleyball queen Kim Yeon-koung.

Metagalaxia introduces diverse star and luxury content as NFTs every Tuesday and Friday. Featured works include those by photographer Lim Chae-wook, artist group ManeCrew, Korean illustrator CJroBlue (Choi Jung-hyun) selected by Adobe, Oriental painting project group Osaekbitdalm, and graphic artist & (Park Joon-sik).

In particular, Metagalaxia thoroughly manages registration, sales, and content quality based on curation, presenting high-quality digital assets across a wide range of fields. Both Ethereum and Klaytn transactions are supported, enhancing accessibility for NFT users. After opening, it plans to sequentially provide marketplace and auction functions enabling transactions not only for primary NFT sales but also between members.

Ko Kwang-rim, CEO of Galaxia Metaverse, stated, “Metagalaxia will serve as a platform for value consumers of the MZ generation’s flex needs and as an investment platform for new digital assets.” He added, “In the short term, we will launch NFTs and STOs (Security Token Offerings) linked to digital creations, and in the mid to long term, we aim to lead a new digital financial economy platform by providing DeFi services based on digital assets and discovering linkage models with the metaverse.”
