“We welcome DBS to The Sandbox as the first bank in Singapore to step into the open metaverse and join our efforts to create the SingaporeVerse, a neighbourhood on our virtual map that will bring the culture of Singapore to life in the metaverse in a very engaging, equitable, inclusive way that is open to all,” says The Sandbox COO and co-founder Sebastien Borget.
DBS has partnered with decentralised gaming virtual world The Sandbox, a subsidiary of Animoca Brands, to create a metaverse platform dubbed DBS BetterWorld.
This makes DBS the first bank in Singapore to make a foray into the metaverse, also marking a new milestone in its journey to explore the potential of Web 3.0 opportunities.
