Barbados is taking the meaning of "going digital" to a
whole new level!
Now in the preparation stages of adding yet another first to its
list of achievements, the Caribbean nation is currently setting
plans in motion to establish a metaverse embassy.
Having recently signed an agreement with Decentraland, one of
the largest and most popular virtual destinations for digital
assets, Barbados' Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade
is also seeking to finalise an agreement with other metaverse
platforms such as Somnium Space and Superworld.
This new and exciting initiative, which is tentatively scheduled
to be launched in January next year, will include identifying and
purchasing land, developing facilities to provide services such as
"e-visas", architecting the virtual embassies and
constructing a "teleporter" that will allow users to
transport their avatars between the various worlds.
