The Sandbox is a blend of the virtual estate that embraces the metaverse, a digital virtual space. NFT Tech joins more than 160 other brands with partnerships with The Sandbox, such as Richie Hatin, Care Bears, Atari, The Smurfs, ZEPETO, Deadmau5, and CryptoKitties, all support the idea of giving players the flexibility to develop and pursue their perspectives using both unique and well-known characters and situations.
“Most brands and rights holders today connect to their audiences across multiple platforms, from TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, Meta, LinkedIn, the list goes on,” said Adam De Cata, CEO of NFT Tech. “We see emerging virtual worlds and environments as the next great place to reach new web3-native audiences and also create deeper engagement and more meaningful experiences for existing customers. Delivering games alongside creative strategies and concepts for our current and future IP in the Sandbox is a perfect partnership with a leading metaverse on the Ethereum blockchain.”
All transactions and interactions in the Sandbox ecosystem are built upon the ERC-20 utility token SAND. It is used to facilitate gameplay-related transactions like interacting with content, buying land, and staking to take part in DAO (decentralized autonomous organization) governance. According to CoinMarketCap, the token’s market cap peaked at over US$10B and a fully diluted market worth of over US$2B.
This partnership fits perfectly with The Sandbox’s recently stated plans to grow its ecosystem by bringing in more partners. This includes new LAND sales targeted toward particular locales and sectors and the beginning of a content series created to draw businesses and intellectual property to the virtual environment. The Sandbox plans to create model communities that honor various places and cultures in the metaverse. Following our press notice from January 14, 2023, the acquisition of Run It Wild by NFT Tech is planned to close on or before February 24, 2023.
