Upcoming Projects and Vision

At present, he’s engaged in talks with multiple big brands and institutions to bring them into the metaverse for a fully immersive and unique experience.

His latest project in the field of online VR gaming is based upon the play-and-earn (P&E) model which focuses on rewarding gamers for playing games that they would generally be playing solely for fun as is the case with the play-to-earn model.

In fact, in an interview with Hackernoon, Eran asserts that the future of gaming is Play-and-Earn and not Play-to-Earn.

GamesPad in this sense, is the biggest thing to have surfaced in recent years in the field of cryptoverse.

Designed to be more than just a game, it is a complete universe or metaverse that allows gaming, shopping, e-commerce, community involvement, events, and the ability for users to create, customize, and utilize their avatars in an immersive and virtual/ digital world. 

Featuring a wide range of services, GamesPad is already showing immense potential as a one-stop shop for metaverse users. All the while educating customers on NFTs and how to use them.

As one of the biggest challenges, Eran Elhanani is trying to collaborate with leading brands and platforms to spread information about the metaverse and simplify its usage for interested users.
