General FAQs about the Spotselfie® Metaverse and Spotland®:
Q: Who runs Spotselfie® Metaverse?
A: Spotselfie™ Metaverse is made, owned, and operated in the USA by Flying Eye Reality, Inc. whose founders are United States residents and citizens.
Q: What is the Spotselfie Metaverse?
A: The Spotselfie Metaverse is superimposed right onto the physical world where life happens. Our metaverse is the next evolution for social networking, beyond static linear scrolls of profiles and posts but without requiring total AR/VR engagement via hardware like bulky headsets. Through the app’s augmented reality (AR) World View, posts (called Spotselfie), stickers, virtual objects, and other users can be seen in the user’s immediate area, visualized by picture bubbles on locations and above the heads of other users. Our metaverse helps people connect faster and with more physical interaction than the other social media platforms, as well as form more meaningful connections with new friends by matching interests.

Note: The terms, conditions, and levels of social-engagement are subject to change at any time, but you will not lose the Social Tokens you have accumulated as a result of those changes.

Q: Can the Digital Land I claim be taken from me?
A: Digital Land is available on a first-come-first-serve basis. Users can own more than one digital plot of land, so hurry and grab the best places on earth before someone else does!

Currently, the price per square foot is set at 1.5 cents USD. The value could go up in price as our platform acquires more Users and Stakeholders.
