A record real-estate sale also has many eyeing the metaverse as the next crypto hype.
Records for Decentraland
A recent surge in metaverse real-estate sales has helped push Decentraland’s $MANA token to a new all-time high of $5.90. The token has risen over 66% in the past week, according to CoinMarketCap.
Decentralalnd stole headlines when a piece of real estate was purchased for $2.4 million by the Metaverse Group, a subsidiary of Tokens.com. The digital real estate sale is the largest in history and signals a shift in attention. An unknown whale account moved $9 million worth of MANA, adding to the speculation that interest in metaverses is on the rise.
“We are happy to make history by closing the largest public metaverse land acquisition to date. These assets will complement the existing portfolio of metaverse real estate already held at Metaverse Group. We are excited to have our subsidiary successfully close this landmark digital real estate transaction,” said Andrew Kiguel, CEO of Metaverse Group, in a press release on Nov. 23rd.
$MANA pushed its market capitalization north of $9.2 billion, surpassing that of Axie Infinity and raising speculation that a metaverse surge could be next in line. Meta––formerly known as Facebook––pushed the narrative further down the metaverse rabbit hole as well. $MANA is now the 24th-largest cryptocurrency by market cap and could see further growth as the token aims for $7.
