Mar 14, 2023 6:30 AM

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Ault Alliance, Inc. (NYSE American: AULT), a diversified holding company (“Ault Alliance” or “Company” ) and Ecoark Holdings, Inc., to be renamed BitNile Metaverse Inc. (“Ecoark”) (Nasdaq: ZEST) announced today that in just 12 days from the launch of the early access version of its metaverse platform (“Platform”), BITNILE.COM has surpassed the milestone of 225,000 7-day active users.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230314005636/en/

The Platform, which went live to the public on March 1, 2023, offers a preview of the foundational world and related activities. New features and functionality are continuing to be added weekly, including 3D immersive games, eCommerce, live streaming entertainment, and social networking. The Platform will have a tiered rewards system that incentivizes users to visit often and remain for longer durations. Advertisers are expected to benefit from the increased “stickiness” and innovative advertising models unique to the metaverse. The Platform is device-agnostic, enabling end-users to access the metaverse via a web browser on any modern device, including mobile phones, tablets, PCs, and VR headsets.

Milton “Todd” Ault, III, the Executive Chairman of Ault Alliance, stated, “We are excited that BITNILE.COM has achieved this milestone of surpassing 225,000 active users and congratulate the BITNILE.COM team on their hard work to provide such a unique and engaging experience. We look forward to providing regular updates, so all our members and visitors have a guide on what is new and determine what they want to do next. In time, we look forward to providing a world that is limitless.”

“The number of active users on BITNILE.COM in less than two weeks since launch supports our belief that if you make the metaverse more accessible, people will come,” said Douglas Gintz, President of BITNILE.COM, Inc. “Traditionally, the metaverse has been accessible only through VR headsets or downloaded apps. By taking a browser-first approach, we’ve removed a significant barrier to entry for consumers and businesses wishing to participate.”

The Company encourages the public to use this link, https://bitnile.com, and experience first-hand the early access version of the Platform and subsequent updates.
