Roc Nation’s expansion into the media follows the company’s recent VR move, having purchased an undisclosed number of SENSO tokens (Ethereum-based currency of Sensorium Galaxy). Sensorium Galaxy is claimed to be “the world’s most advanced social VR platform” and its users will be required to use SENSO to access VR shows.
