MUA DAO, which stands for Metaverse Universal Assets DAO, is a decentralized autonomous organization founded in 2021 by Michelle Han, Blackey S, Candice Shen, and Huang C. The organization functions as a creator-centric community and infrastructure provider for the metaverse, with a particular focus on leveraging artificial intelligence. The company's core offering is the MUA7648 protocol, a multi-chain protocol that enables the conversion of digital assets into 3D and supports asset modularization, splitting, and combination to enhance liquidity and value. This protocol is designed to accelerate the modularization of AI Agent assets, allowing for value interoperability between human and AI creators.
The MUA DAO ecosystem serves a diverse client base, including creators, businesses, and metaverse land owners. For creators such as architects, designers, and developers, it provides tools and a community to transition their skills into the metaverse and monetize their work. For businesses, MUA Labs, the organization's metaverse solutions agency, offers services ranging from consultation to commercial deployment of immersive experiences. The business model appears to be centered around its native utility token, $MUA, which is used for transactions, staking for service fee discounts, and participating in the ecosystem's activities. In May 2024, MUA DAO announced it had secured $5 million in funding from investors including Avalanche, ByteTrade, Rocktree Capital, and individual investor Jihan Wu.
The MUA ecosystem includes several components: MUA7648 (the core protocol), MUA Academy (for talent development), MUA Cantina (a modular AI-NFT marketplace), MUA Labs (the enterprise solutions arm), and MUAverse (an AI-driven interactive engine and multi-metaverse platform). MUA DAO has established partnerships with entities like Alibaba Cloud, for which it is an exclusive Metaverse ISV, Ant Group, and the Hong Kong government. With a distributed team across Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, Europe, and North America, the leadership brings expertise from crypto, architecture, asset management, and game development.
