Tokyo /EastVerse/ – Introducing EastVerse, a Web3 project to empower offline business in Japan.
EastVerse empowers tourism and offline stores with Crypto technology, integrating the value of Japan’s tourism and offline stores into the web3 token economy, linking offline (Japan) with online (global).
