+Passage is the first **metaverse** experience on the Cosmos ecosystem!
+Passage brings tools to make accessible, tailored virtual worlds which can
+be streamed through a browser without hardware requirements. Our Mission is to Empower World
+Builders to Drive Interactions, Content and AudienceS to Cosmos. Artists, projects, influencers,
+and on-chain games will bring ordinary and 3D-asset NFTs that can be used, bought, and sold on
+the Passage Marketplace
+
+## Core Features
+- **The first “metaverse” experience on the Cosmos Ecosystem.**
+    - Passage provides an accessible and easy to use way for individuals,
+      projects, and organisations to create immersive 3D-worlds and connect
+      them with other worlds in the ecosystem.
+    - These worlds are accessible through a browser on almost any device. A
+      local client will also be offered so that people are able to use their own 		
+      hardware to enter the world without the streaming service.
+    - Passage utilizes the unstoppable cloud computing network, Akash.
+    - The Ecosystem where the Multiplayer RPG game The Strange Clan is
+      being built!
+- **The first NFT marketplace on the Cosmos ecosystem that uses the Cosmos
+  native ATOM as one of the main mediums of exchange.**
+    - Marketplace launch on Juno early Q1-2022.
+    - Launches with the 5000 minted Strange Clan NFTs, followed by
+      another 5000 NFT-characters in Q1-2022 as well as game related NFTs.
+    - Several partners are lined up to bolster available NFT content.
+    - The Marketplace will host both game content and NFTs with viewable 		
+      3D-assets that can also be used in worldbuilding.
+    - The Marketplace will enable open NFT-creation similarly to Ethereum’s
+      OpenSea during 2022.
