BANGKOK – Planned for August 13 this year, the Hype Type Metaverse Concert will also feature non-fungible tokens (NFTs), cryptocurrency and virtual shops, CEO of A Plano Tech Kalyawee Chumphon na Ayutthaya said.

The concert’s metaverse platform has been built over the past year by Thai and international developers at a cost of over Bt235 million, she added. The company plans to sell copyright for the platform’s software to other entertainment companies worldwide.

“We expect 20 million people worldwide to participate in the concert,” Kalyawee said.
