Many gamers suddenly became billionaires thanks to the metaverse fever

A new generation of dollar millionaires comes from gamers.

As of November 2019, a Decentraland token (trading code MANA) costs only $0.03. Blink after 2, this number has increased to more than 100 times. According to an update on Coinmarketcap, the Decentraland token has just peaked on October 31 with a trading value of $3.7/MANA. This utopian boom has spawned a new generation of dollar millionaires, who just a few years earlier were still casual gamers.

It is known that Decentraland launched in 2017 is a virtual reality game operating on the Ethereum blockchain platform. This game is basically a miniature society where you can build your character and join a virtual society. You can buy land, buy cars, build houses, participate in game events… For ease of visualization, you can feel it’s similar to The Sim operated on Ethereum’s blockchain system.

In Decentraland, players trade with each other using a currency called MANA. At the beginning, Decentraland gamers owned a lot of Mana. The number of people with over 100,000 Mana is not uncommon, some gamers can even store millions of Mana.

And then the cryptocurrency craze hit. With NFT becoming an extremely hot trend and interested in the global technology world, Decentraland and MANA have grown spectacularly. From $0.03, Mana has skyrocketed to more than $3.7 (an increase of more than 12,300%). This incredible growth has turned many Decentraland gamers into dollar millionaires.

It is not natural that MANA has entered the explosive phase as it is now. Facebook’s change of name to Meta with the incubation of building a virtual super universe (metaverse) has made the NFT game fever hotter than ever. Along with Decentraland, games like Sandbox or Alice also have the opportunity to increase their gallop. A new generation of dollar millionaires was born. These are people who love games and have financial investment acumen.
