Jason Fung, the former head of short video giant TikTok’s gaming division, launched a blockchain gaming startup called Meta0 as CEO and has completed its first round of financing.

The startup aims to provide users with a platform to transfer non-fungible tokens (NFTs) between different blockchains.

It also provides white-label application programming interfaces (APIs) and software development kit-based solutions for blockchain developers, ensuring that developers can isolate existing infrastructure options.

The founding team of Meta0 currently consists of six members, Fung said: "Right now, if you look at any developer when they implement NFTs or blockchain in their games, they have to choose a single blockchain, be it Polygon or Solana or Binance Smart Chain. But imagine a more interoperable option."

Jason Fung left TikTok after working 2 years who believes in the promising development of blockchain gaming.

The global video streaming platform TikTok and the encrypted music streaming platform Audius have developed a new feature called "TikTok Sounds" to support users to share sounds to the TikTok platform through Audius.

He expressed his hope to obtain financial support from venture capital institutions and strategic investors through the issuance of tokens.
