View ChartHighstreet (HIGH) is a commerce-centred metaverse project that integrates shopping with gaming, built on the Ethereum blockchain as an ERC-20 token. The project aims to define a new generation of retail by offering an easy, secure, and entertaining online shopping experience, while enabling two-way currency flow between the physical and virtual worlds. HIGH has a fixed maximum supply of 100,000,000 tokens. Highstreet was founded in 2021 by Travis Wu and Jenny Guo, building on LumiereVR, a computer vision company they established in 2015; the HIGH token first went live in October 2021. Highstreet World combines retail and gaming, allowing players to explore, fight monsters, complete quests, and acquire both digital and real-world goods.
Highstreet was co-founded by Travis Wu and Jenny Guo. The project originated from LumiereVR, a computer vision company established in 2015 that focused on enhancing retail experiences through virtual reality technology. Travis Wu is an experienced software developer and blockchain enthusiast with a background in VR. He studied entrepreneurship at Draper University in San Mateo, California, and computer science at Queen's University in Ontario, Canada. Jenny Guo majored in electronic arts and political studies at Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, and studied creative producing at Columbia University. Its core investor is YZi Labs, and it is part of the Animoca Brands portfolio. Some company profiles also list Jack Qiao among the founders; the co-founders most commonly cited are Travis Wu and Jenny Guo. Team information is also tracked on TokenInsight and CryptoRank.
Highstreet operates as a decentralised, commerce-centred play-to-earn metaverse supported by virtual reality technology. The platform enables a two-way currency flow between the physical and virtual worlds, introducing a marketplace where in-game items can be exchanged for real-life products. Players can explore the metaverse, fight monsters, complete quests, and earn goods that have both digital and real-world utility. The ecosystem includes Highstreet World, the core metaverse product; Highstreet Market, a marketplace for in-game items and exclusive phygital products and NFTs; and Highstreet Homes, virtual real estate that users can own and customise. Virtual land is organised into single Hexes, 10-Hex Zones, 50-Hex Regions and 150-Hex Megaplexes, and land bundles are commissioned to real-world brands to build in-game infrastructure such as clubs, shops, homes and experiences. All transactions are recorded on the public Ethereum blockchain, making them verifiable by anyone. The project also offers "phygital" products, combining physical and digital elements, available from various brands on the Highstreet Market.
Highstreet distinguishes itself by merging retail and gaming into a single metaverse experience, pioneering what it calls "meta-lifestyles." Its core innovation is the bidirectional currency flow between physical and virtual worlds, allowing game items to be redeemed for real-life products. The project offers phygital products and NFTs from exclusive brands, bridging digital ownership with tangible goods. Highstreet World provides a multifaceted metaverse where players can socialise, adventure, and shop, positioning itself as a venue for friendship and fun with global explorers. The integration of VR technology and blockchain-verified transactions adds transparency and immersion. Additionally, the HIGH token is governance-heavy, giving holders voting rights on major platform decisions, and it supports staking and marketplace purchases, aligning community incentives with platform growth.
HIGH serves multiple functions within the Highstreet ecosystem. It acts as the primary in-game currency for Highstreet World and is used to purchase products on the marketplace. HIGH is also paid to property owners as taxes within the metaverse. As a governance-heavy token, it allows holders to vote on significant platform decisions. Users can stake HIGH to earn rewards, and the token can be obtained by participating in special metaverse events. Within the game, HIGH is used to buy in-game items, access premium experiences, upgrade characters and mint exclusive NFTs, and it also powers micro-transactions, digital storefronts and participation in brand-backed events or product drops. The project also includes STREET, a separate utility token earned by completing in-game tasks. STREET is inflationary, with its supply increasing as the player base grows, and it is used to buy armour, weapons, healing items, travel tickets, and hotel stays. Together, HIGH and STREET facilitate commerce and engagement across the virtual and physical realms.
The Highstreet ecosystem is centred on Highstreet World, Highstreet Market, and Highstreet Homes. Highstreet World is the core metaverse product blending retail and gaming, while Highstreet Market provides a platform for in-game items, exclusive phygital products, and NFTs. Highstreet Homes allows users to own and personalise virtual real estate. In November 2021 the team reported the game was in private alpha testing, with a public beta targeted for the end of that year; the published roadmap subsequently placed the public beta in Q1–Q2 2022. The Highstreet Market is accessible via browser. Partnerships include Animoca Brands, with the Animoca All-Terrain Trailer already available on the platform. The project has been listed as the 28th Binance Launchpool project and carries tags for Gaming, DeFi, Ethereum Ecosystem, and Animoca Brands Portfolio. The ecosystem continues to develop with a focus on expanding brand collaborations and user-generated experiences.
HIGH cannot be mined. It is an ERC-20 token issued on Ethereum, a proof-of-stake network, so new HIGH is not created by proof-of-work mining; tokens enter circulation through the initial distribution, Launchpool events and staking rewards, while STREET is earned by completing in-game tasks. Holders can stake HIGH for in-game boosts, access to special zones, and participation in community-driven initiatives. The project also distributes tokens via Launchpool events on certain platforms, allowing users to earn HIGH by staking other assets.
To keep HIGH safe, use a reputable wallet that supports ERC-20 tokens, such as hardware wallets for cold storage or well-reviewed software wallets for everyday use. Always verify the official contract address (0x71ab77b7dbb4fa7e017bc15090b2163221420282) before interacting with any token or platform. Enable two-factor authentication on exchange accounts and do not share private keys or seed phrases with anyone. Be cautious of phishing sites and fake tokens, and only use official links from the Highstreet website and social channels. Since HIGH transactions are recorded on the public Ethereum blockchain, you can independently verify transfers. Consider diversifying storage methods and keeping only a portion of holdings on exchanges for active trading. Regularly update wallet software. Check the official audit report and the project's published security disclosures before interacting with the contract.
HIGH is listed on several major exchanges, including Coinbase, KuCoin, LBank and MEXC, and can also be swapped on decentralised platforms. To buy HIGH, follow these general steps:
Always research the exchange's fees, security features, and regional availability before trading. HIGH can be exchanged for crypto or fiat on the exchanges where it is listed; check each venue for supported fiat pairs and regional availability. Derivatives trading involves leverage and can result in losses exceeding your initial deposit; only trade what you can afford to lose. Crypto assets are highly volatile and subject to regulatory and technical risk; the information above is general in nature and is not investment advice.
