Zora Metaverse Lane (Onchain Social)
When people say “metaverse,” they picture 3D worlds. That’s one type.
Zora is the social metaverse layer: persistent identity + culture + communities
where every post is a coin and value flows through the network in public. It’s
socially driven, economically native, and composable — which makes it the connective tissue
that ties our other lanes together.
The chord of 3 strands:
Zora = social + onchain economy,
Upland = mapped 3D operations,
VeVe = premium IP vault + galleries.
Each lane can stand alone — together they’re stronger.
1
Identity
Profiles are persistent, public, and tied to onchain actions — your name becomes a coordinate in the social world.
2
Culture
Communities form around posts, creators, and coins — discovery is the map, attention is the traffic.
3
Economy
Every post and profile has native market dynamics — participation is measurable and value can flow back to builders.
4
Composability
It’s onchain: integrations, registries, leaderboards, and cross-lane perks can be executed cleanly outside the app.
Why Zora qualifies as a “metaverse”
- Persistent social world: identity, memory, reputation, and relationship-building exist as an always-on public space.
- Native economy: posts/profiles become tradable primitives (not just content); creators can earn from engagement dynamics.
- Space is social, not geographic: discovery feeds + graphs + communities are the “terrain.”
- Interoperable by design: because it’s onchain, we can bridge attention → ops → rewards across lanes without pretending transfers exist where they don’t.
How we use Zora inside 7EVN:
Zora is the coordination and distribution layer — announcements, contests, discovery flywheels, and “social proof” —
while the web hub (this site) provides structure, policies, and navigation that normal humans can understand.
