Metaverse Fans Are Paying $300,000 For A Virtual Property Instead Of Buying A Real House
As interest in the metaverse has grown, more and more investors have flocked to the virtual world in search of a piece of digital real estate that many believe will be the future of social networking, work, and entertainment.
Speaking with CNBC, CEO, and founder of Tokens.com, Andrew Kiguel, discussed why some investors are willing to spend millions of dollars for parcels of land. He noted:
“Prices have gone up 400% to 500% in the last few months.”
Although the land does not exist in the actual world, it does exist in the metaverse, and the opportunities are abundant there, according to the entrepreneur whose company recently spent almost $2.5 million in Decentraland (MANA).
The CEO added:
“The metaverse is the next iteration of social media. You can go to a music concert; you can go to a museum, all types of different experiences that you can explore and get immersed with.”
Elsewhere, Republic Realm CEO Janine Yorio, whose company had recently spent a record $4 million on a parcel of land on The Sandbox (SAND), revealed that last year, she sold over 100 private islands at $15,000 each on the platform.
“Today they’re selling for about three hundred thousand dollars each which coincidentally is exactly the same as the average home price in America.”
Ethereum Price Is Expected To Reach These Levels
Looking at the Ethereum price chart, we can see that ETH has registered a marginal drop during the ongoing session. If ETH is unable to reverse this drop, we could see ETH slip below $3200. However, if ETH can recover from this drop, we could see the price push towards $3300.
