[About Continuum. Social and Cybertrophy]
Continuum.Social was established in Toronto, Canada, in November 2021. In April 2023, it released the Web3 geosocial platform Cybertrophy globally, including in Japan. The company plans to establish a Japanese subsidiary in the future.
Cybertrophy is a smartphone app that utilizes Web3 and location-based geosocial technology to allow users to collect digital trophies. Users can freely create and distribute trophies, making it useful for proving visits to local areas and events, contributions to social activities, and reputations from users and customers. By using Web3 technology for trophies, it serves as a reliable countermeasure against fake news and inaccurate information.
Cybertrophy encourages users to share information based on actual experiences at specific locations or based on their experiences, participate in local businesses and events, revitalize local economies, and strengthen connections between participants. It contributes to the rediscovery of local attractions and sustainable urban planning, ultimately elevating the exploration of future cities and community bonding to new levels.
Beyond merely collecting digital trophies, Cybertrophy aims to enable users to build their reputations within communities through their actions, positively impact the real world, and contribute to the sustainability and quality of life in future cities. It embodies the increasingly important shift from "things" to "events" in future society and creates a positive cycle that encourages new participation and contribution.
