Humans are highly creative and imaginative creatures. This needs no proving as it is self-evident in the various technological innovations and inventions that daily spring around us. Man's quest for knowledge and to make his existence worthwhile has led him into many technological exploits, the latest of which is virtual/augmented reality.
Virtual and augmented reality are growing trends in digital creativity - growing trends with equally growing market demand estimated at about $209 billion by year 2023.
For clarity on these concepts,
Augmented reality (AR) adds digital elements to a live view often by using the camera on a smartphone...
Virtual reality (VR) implies a complete immersion experience that shuts out the physical world. Using VR devices such as HTC Vive, Oculus Rift or Google Cardboard, users can be transported into a number of real-world and imagined environments...
In a mixed reality (MR) experience, which combines elements of both AR and VR, real-world and digital objects interact.

These are technologies commonly employed in games, animated videos, and photos - the same technologies xr web aims to bring to mainstream using the blockchain technology.
Xr web is a digitalized extended reality platform, the very first of its kind to be set upon the trending blockchain technology. XR here stands for EXTENDED REALITY. This concept connotes every kind of digitalized reality - virtual, augmented, and mixed realities. XR web thus is a platform where every kind of digitalized realities and their app would can be created and made available to users. Put differently, the platform is an ecosystem for digitalized reality apps, their developers, and users/consumers. Here users would be able to find and interact with various reality applications that meet their tastes and needs at any point in time.
The XR Web is a project built on ethereum blockchain network. As typical of blockchain projects, xr web has its platform token, XR, which are currently selling in its pre-sale stage to generate funds for the project.
Being a steemian comes with a lovely perk here as the xr web team has offered huge discounts for purchases using the steem.m currency. Purchasing with steem, you can get your chunk of xr tokens easily and enjoy 5x discount compared to purchase with other currencies like USD, BTC, and ETH. Precisely, you get 10xr per steem you send which gives you a whooping 500xr tokens for the minimum 50 steem (about $20 at present).
A cheat deal indeed, i must admit!
I highly recommend you give this opportunity a go if you are capable, and never let it slip by.
Getting The Tokens
The process of acquiring the XR token is quite simple using your steem account. All you need do is transfer a minimum of 50steem to @gofindxr using your ethereum wallet address as your memo in the transfer. You would receive your equivalent of xr tokens in your specified ethereum address in due course.
Why You Need XR Tokens
Xr is a utility token. You would be able to interact with xr apps only with the use of the tokens. You can also stake your xr tokens on the platforms mainnet and enjoy passive rewards.
