📖Intro

In the 'rugged' streets of the Metaverse, it takes a family to survive.

Wealth has corrupted the darkened hearts of politicians and siphoned the good fortunes from kind people. It’s time to overturn the tides, and take back what rightfully belongs to your family.

''Welcome to Gangs of the Meta''

You’re hungry. Your family is hungry. You flicker on the TV, dust fuzzes the cracked screen. You bought it at a thrift store years ago. The colors don’t show correctly on the display anymore.

Next thing you know, you’re running. But not alone. You’re running with your crew. Back to the safe house. After a long fight with your rivals, you safely exit their turf before making away with your loot:

freshly printed($GOTM) cracked from their vault.

This is the first time you’ve had this much money in your hands, so you pocket a handful of bills and distribute the rest back to your crew. Every gang in the Meta has a team - yours happens to be the most prestigious and elite.

You have your run-of-the-mill Gangster. Hungry, ambitious, with a chip on his shoulder. They’re loyal to you so you best be loyal to them.

Baby Mamas keep your community healthy. They nurture the next generation. You need to protect them as much as you can. They’re an asset to your team.

Never let your Guard down. Speaking of guards, hire one, hire two. You’ll need them to soak up any attacks from the opposition you can. They’ll eat into your funds, but take this warning seriously. I’m telling you from experience. This lifestyle is only for the most ambitious, and strategic.

You’ll meet cops along the way. Many of them. They’re corrupt as hell. Some of them will accept bribes. If you don’t do the dime, you’ll do the time. Period.

Depending on your level of crime, you’ll receive a wanted level. If you do something really dastardly, well you’ll be facing a hefty police force behind you. My advice? Pay the bail if you can. The alternative is facing jail and nobody likes jail.

Rats in the streets eat better than the slop they serve you there. If your leaders get arrested, you better free them. Otherwise, your team will be weakened severely. Best to take care of that sooner than later.

Lastly, you have the spies. Are they working for you, or for your opposition? It’s nearly impossible to tell. The best thing you can do is keep an eye on them. They’ll be doing the same to you, after all.

So you’ve learned about the lifestyle and your crew. Great. Before you perch your lips and reach for your wallet, it’s important to understand this: This life can be flashy, but it ain't easy. You’ll have a lot of folks eyeing you, and trying to take you down. The Gangs of the Meta can be ruthless, so having the right team is essential. Jot this down, and never forget it.

You’ve told me about your dreams of living in mansions, swimming in crystal-clear pools and relaxing by the skyline. You’re stacking wealth, dollaz, and building a pretty impressive team here, rookie. Don’t let that hunger go. Don’t let the wealth and the flashy money and chains distract you from your most important objective: giving back to the family. Promise me that before I let you back on the streets, kiddo. Take your keys, take your gear, and get out of here. Hope you make it to brunch next week with your folks. This vicious hunger runs in our veins, son. Don’t let it go to waste.

You absorb the training, thank your mentor, and walk out the sidewalk. It’s time to take on the Gangs of the Meta, one gang at a time.
