The latest reports indicate that the first-ever certified Kosher NFT collection has come. Analysts say that it is one of the most unique events in recent Metaverse history. The new Web 3.0 project known as CryptoJewish is powered by the Polygon blockchain.
This project sets out to transform one of the most crucial segments of human culture into its digital versions, with 10,000 unique pieces set for release.
Notably, 25 of the rarest pieces of the CryptoJewish collection will be based in the fourth-biggest synagogue in the world – rather, its digital version in Decentraland that has already been certified as Kosher by Chief Rabbi Peter Deutsch and Rabbi Daniel Channen together with the whole collection of CryptoJewish NFTs.
The project strives to make art and culture a part of the physical-to-digital hype, widening the scope of the content that is available in the metaverse. As different blockchain projects enter the pop-culture and NFT collections throughout the world, these trends have remained significantly distant from the tangible cultural heritage, which CryptoJewish is aiming to change.
The founders of this project are well-experienced in the metaverse space. LA-based, and award-winning conglomerate The Hello Group (“THG”) together with Post For Rent, influencer and media company, set up the partnership with aspirations to create opportunities for cultures, creators, and brands.
In partnership with top-ranking executives from Post For Rent’s leadership (COO Zsolt Varga-Szilagyi and founder/CEO Gergo Csiszar), THG aims to launch a new division for its Web3 initiatives, titled “HelloVerse.”
The division is expected to make THG the first entertainment, talent-focused firm to have its building in the Metaverse, showcasing the original and partner IP across its list, and its 14 divisions.
Having created the first Influencer ClubHouse in Decentraland in December last year, known as Post For Rent, Fresh Stash House has now led the way for firms to explore the virtual possibilities and for the developers to discover new different voices and new revenue streams.
Fresh Stash together with the CryptoJewish NFT collection is expected to become the IP of HelloVerse in the scope of the new deal struck between THG and Post For Rent.
Their aim with CryptoJewish is to show how to develop multidimensional-value content, using the new, and innovative digital language, bringing the elements from the millennia-old culture into the digital revolution that is accessible by anyone.
The two leaders of the Modern Orthodox community, Rabbi Daniel Channen, and Chief Rabbi Peter Deutsch are the pioneers in the transformation of the Jewish community’s cultural heritage, creating an example of being open to digital innovation.
Just like the people in the synagogues, it has been challenging several years without the chance to connect with the community personally but, as a result of the pandemic, online prayers have shown the value of connecting with religion and culture using the digital space.
Notably, the digital architectural wonder in Decentraland has been created to resemble the Synagogue of Szeged. The first building was entirely designed by Lipót Baumhorn, finished in 1902, and is currently the fourth-biggest synagogue globally.
Interestingly, its virtual replica is the exact match of the original but consists of a distinct interior where 25 rarest pieces of the KOSHER NFT collection by CryptoJewish are available and can be bought along with the KOSHER certificate.
CryptoJewish’s long-term mission is to create a vibrant, Web 3.0 savvy community passionate about culture and innovation. The first step in the long roadmap is the introduction of the unexpected KOSHER CryptoJewish NFT collectible together with the first official, Chief Rabbi-certified Synagogue in the Metaverse. It will also come with exclusive access, art, content, and extra services to come along the way.
Taylor Jones, CEO of The Hello Group, said:
“We are excited to be at the forefront of the cultural advancement in the digital world, by our partnership with the team at Post For Rent. Our new company, HelloVerse, plans to announce in the coming weeks concerning its extensive plans in Web3 and The Hello Group’s expansion in the metaverse.”
Gergo Csiszar, founder and CEO of Post For Rent, commented:
“This isn’t our first project with The Hello Group, but the one we are the most excited about. The vision and the up-and-coming projects we have been developing for THG’s new division are truly something that stands out in the industry. We can’t wait for the official launch.”
This project indicates how far the communities have come, innovating and following the current trends in the digital era that is spanning across different cultures, industries, and generations.
With that CryptoJewish launch, the culture seems to have entered a new level in helping bridge the gap between generations, and a digital and physical world, enabling customers to own different arts available at OpenSea or to visit the new synagogue in Decentraland.
