Project Description
We are creating a metaverse called Milkyway Infinity, which will specifically target NFTs, Gaming, Entertainment, Video streaming and Real-world services such as VR based eCommerce shopping & Spaces explorations(real estate), Brand promotions, Advertisements, Property tokenisation, Banking & Payment system, Insurances data management with claim approval system and Data verification system through our Blockchain technologies, which will directly help people from different walks of life globally.
Milkyway Infinity metaverse is a world of fantasies which connects, with real-world infinity utility services globally.
Milkyway Infinity metaverse is planned in 3 phases, with 5 years timeline. Considering this as a vast project, we are currently breaking down our metaverse into 3 phases.
1st Phase
The 1st phase comprises the Akiko planet - NFTs and Gaming beta stage.
2nd Phase
The 2nd phase comprises the Wonderland planet - Games launch and MWI tokens beta stage.
3rd Phase
The 3rd phase comprises the MWI token launch and building real-world infinity services according to global norms and requirements, and launching the services, which can cater to the global audience.
AKIKO
Akiko a planet exclusively meant for our Milkyway Infinity Metaverse community. Anyone can become a part of our community by purchasing the Akiko NFT avatars, which are capped at 45000 avatars which will be incorporated in the wonderland games and will also be available on multiple blockchains, marketplaces and exchanges. Members of our community will get priority community mint for all the upcoming NFT launches and will also get exclusive free access to play to win games in our Gaming land, with privileges of exploring other planets, freebies, and prior access to all assets under Milkyway Infinity metaverse.
WONDERLAND
Wonderland – A fantasy planet comprising of many mini lands such as gamer land, music land, social media land, movie land, art land and would act as a marketplace too, for other communities or individuals to launch their fantasy lands. As part of the gamer land, anyone can launch and host games alongside us and use MWI tokens for rewards. Gamers can also earn tokens by advancing different levels across different games. Essentially, we are creating a universe of games and more.
As part of media and entertainment lands which is decentralized, we shall be powering content creators to post their content be it (music, art, short videos, tweets or any digital content) in our metaverse and earn money based on views, branding and influencer marketing.
YOURTH
Yourth – Pronounced as ‘Earth’ – our home planet, this is where all the real-world blockchain use-case projects that would really add value to the society will be ideated and developed. We have various plans to step into retail, real estate, banking, supply-chain and other Web3 use-cases. We intend to offer our blockchain products as a service for anyone from big MNCs to a common man to benefit from our Web3 solutions.
As we would be a metaverse comprising of different verses from fantasies to real life, providing infinite universes, infinite possibilities and infinite profits, the whole world is for sure going to be glued to our Milkyway platform

Milkyway Infinity Metaverse is created by PRASHBI labs, which is owned by PRASHBI GLOBAL SERVICES.
Value
From Milkyway Infinity Metaverse project, Filecoin will be benefitted in two ways in long term. One is through Filecoin branding in our NFT avatars which is incorporated in games, and in meta data. Secondly, as Filecoin would be our default storage, all the content hosted in our metaverse by the creators will be stored on Filecoin, generating a passive income for Filecoin.
We intent to get everything right. The risk of not getting this right might lead to weaker community and less traction and in turn less profits. We have staged our phases in such a way so that we can avoid major risks or traps. While we progress through stages 2 and 3 of the projects, we plan to widen our team for faster execution and quality product
Deliverables
We will be delivering the project in phases mentioned below:
Phase 1: Launch of Akiko NFTs alongside the first web-based game and our project website. We will be focusing more on the NFT pre-launch, Game beta stage and community building during this phase
Phase 2: With the grants, funding raised from Phase1, we shall be launching Akiko NFTs and the web game and developing more games which are rewarding to players and a Minimum of 1 multiplayer game will be delivered as part of game land. Decentralized content creation platform integrated with Filecoin for music, videos, and artworks. YouTube alike decentralized video streaming platform for videos, music albums and a virtual museum for all the artists and individuals to showcase their NFTs and earn
Phase 3: In phase 3, we would be established as a blockchain service company. This is our vision where we partner with different companies aiding them with blockchain-based solutions
