The NFT proponent outlined that they are not charging fees or generating crowdfunding at this stage, as they want to offer a working product before scaling through investment. At this stage, anyone is free to participate and build in the alpha, as long as “their idea fits” the museum district.
“I don’t want your ETH, I want your input on how to design OM. I collect in public, I invest in the public, and together we will build OM in public. “
“OM’s basic governance model is at the county level: Counties can be either “growing” or “opening”. 6529 would develop 6529 Museum District, for example. Others may develop other places. Other places could be free testing spaces for everyone,” they added.
To celebrate the beginning of OM I just took and minted a photo from the highest building of the #6529MuseumDistrict (inspired by @DrifterShoots). This is truly amazing, thank you for creating this. @punk6529 @6529er #BRAISED #openmetaverse pic.twitter.com/hpRbIMgVzn

In terms of scale, punk6529 says the museum complex has 25 active buildings in the central square, along with another 2,000 that have yet to be activated.
“Each building can have 1 to 100 spaces, so this type of district can easily accommodate 100,000 citizens,” punk6529 said.
Collectors NFT also suggested they join an open Metaverse, noting that they envision OM as “no one party is responsible. A Metaverse where you don’t have to worry ‘who are the shareholders and do you agree with them?’.
“This is not too shocking, humans have done this before. There is no human being responsible for: email, or HTML or TCP/IP or Bitcoin or ERC-721. “
Absolutely blown away by the open metaverse created by @punk6529 @batsoupyum @krybharat @bonafidehan @ACthecollector & @phon_ro. Spent the evening exploring and enjoying all of the incredible art. I can see myself spending a lot of time here in the future! pic.twitter.com/l2mnsSqcp2

For the project to grow and attract a mainstream audience, punk6529 notes that it will have to be affordable, user-friendly, and provide a bridge to the real world to expand beyond “ETH/crypto degens.” .
If all goes to plan, OM will move into public beta sometime around June or July if Metaverse attracts enough users and the technology can support further development and the space wide.
