Providing unprecedented levels of trust and privacy for online users and will play an important role in the larger Metaverse ecosystem with assurances to reduce fraud, bad actors, fake users, bots, online bullying and hacks.

Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc.(CSE:LQID)(OTCQB:LQAVF)(FRA:4T51) is pleased to announce the deployment of blockchain-based verifiable credentials for Proof of Humanity available via the Liquid Avatar Mobile App, providing assurances that allows Aftermath Islands Metaverse and other websites, eCommerce, social platform and other Metaverse users to establish a digital footprint that proves they are genuine individuals without having to divulge sensitive government issued identity or proof of address, creating a high degree of trust or privacy in the Web3 world by establishing one-user, one-account verification. This system has the opportunity to play a much larger role in the online and emerging Metaverse ecosystems supporting interoperability, reduction of fraud and instances of cyber bullying, and potentially creating more effective and efficient business interactions for marketing and engagement. This system also eliminates the need for usernames and passwords, instead using a user's verified biometric as their password.

Powered by the Liquid Avatar Mobile App, available in most regions around the world, in the Apple App Store and Google Play, with an expanding global footprint, users can easily create an account and use likeness, device and age verification to establish an individual block-chain based verifiable credential using W3C principles to create a Meta Park Pass™. The Meta Park Pass™ can then be presented to Aftermath Islands' Free Pay to Earn game, Lost Kingdom of T'Sara, to play within the platform without establishing a traditional username and password. Aftermath Islands will also deploy the Meta Park Pass™ verifiable credential to access its Metaverse and other online programs as they become available.

Throughout the evolution of the Internet, both individuals and businesses have had great difficulty in establishing trust-based relationships and verification. US Federal Trade Commission data shows that consumers reported losing more than $5.8 billion to fraud in 2021, an increase of more than 70 [percent over the previous year. A study released in July 2022, from Juniper Research, found that the cumulative merchant losses to online payment fraud globally between 2023 and 2027 will exceed $343 billion. In August this year, ECT News Network Reported that one in three U.S. social media users has multiple accounts on the social media platforms that they use, according to a survey of 1,500 U.S. social media users conducted by USCasinos.com. Of those with multiple accounts, nearly half (48%) have two or more additional accounts. According to CBS, in 2021, the major social media networks took down over 1.4 Billion fake accounts.

The Liquid Avatar Mobile App and Meta Park Pass™ challenge conventional online wisdom that allows individuals and entities to create multiple user accounts, potentially leading to predatory practices and cyberbullying, aimed towards children and seniors, and fake accounts that pump up user stats inside a platform. This system works to solve these issues and others for users and marketers by providing assurances that everyone in an online environment is a "real" person with 1 user only allowed 1 account, potentially increasing transparency and confidence to online communities. Aftermath Islands Metaverse and Lost Kingdom of T'Sara are the first platforms to deploy and use this technology, which can be easily deployed to other online games, websites, social media, and eCommerce platforms.

The Liquid Avatar Mobile App and Meta Park Pass™ represents a huge step forward for the digital identity and Metaverse spaces to reduce, reverse and potentially eliminate these negative trends by using blockchain technologies providing reliable and provide user identification solutions for these offerings, which has been a longstanding challenge. Without a unique digital footprint for individual users, existing new platforms can suffer the same issues of fraud, identity theft, and restricted value capture by platform participants that have long plagued a wide range of other industries, from finance and healthcare to insurance, education and more.

The Liquid Avatar Mobile App will be used by Aftermath Islands to create additional credentials for exclusive access to events, further verification where KYC (Know Your Customer) credentials are required and new and emerging opportunities in online education, business, gaming, and other activities where proof of humanity and identity are required.

"Liquid Avatar's app allows users to control what they share, when they share and how they share, allowing them to manage, control and benefit from the use of their digital footprint using the Meta Park Pass™ and other blockchain-based verifiable credentials." said RJ Reiser, Chief Information Officer of Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc. "The system also includes features to create verifiable credentials and verify them, creating and supporting identity without the need of usernames and passwords. By combining these digital identifiers for participants and players on our platforms and within the growing constellation of digital offerings and virtual platforms coming up around the world, we make it easier for platforms and players to control their data and secure their privacy wherever they operate - in virtual or in real life."

"We are excited to have Aftermath Islands as the first organization to deploy Proof of Humanity and enhance value with real people, while eliminating the issues that plague usernames and passwords, effectively creating a one-user, one-account system." said David Lucatch, Chief Executive Officer of Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc. "With Web3 and the Metaverse, we have an opportunity to change the failures of previous iterations of the Internet that failed to provide protection for privacy, data, and assurances that only real people exist in an online space. We would never accept this kind of behaviour in the real world, and we now have the opportunity to provide organizations with the ability to create safe and unique spaces that support digital footprints and all types of interactions between people, businesses and other parties."

Proof of Humanity offers similar services and promises to herald a new era in which we no longer rely on centralized forms of ID (Such as those provided by governments or institutions) for verification or access to services and create assurances that everyone in an ecosystem is a real person. By using blockchain-based verifiable credentials systems, we can assure that one user has only one account.

Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc.'s services and offerings are open to a wide range of new use cases in multiple domains across the virtual and Metaverse experiences, as well as at the intersections of the real and online worlds. These include online gaming, cashing out funds from online wallets, and obtaining real-world services using a unique digital footprint, and is helping to create a verified database of unique registrants.
