Gamer Pays $ 650,000 for Luxury Yacht in Sandbox Metaverse



The boom in the Sandbox metaverse continues. A gamer has now paid around 150 Ethereum (ETH) for a virtual yacht.

Since Facebook changed its name to Meta on October 29, crypto-metaverse projects such as Sandbox (SAND) and Decentraland (MANA) have been booming. While the price of MANA has risen by over 350 percent since then, SAND has even increased by more than 400 percent. At press time, SAND is trading at $ 6.63.

In Sandbox, players can build their own world, similar to the classic game Minecraft. In contrast to Minecraft, gamers in Sandbox have the option of owning their properties and in-game items in the form of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). This makes it possible for items purchased in the game to be converted into cash.

Most expensive non-fungible token (NFT) in sandbox

A player on the NFT trading platform OpenSea paid around 150 Ethereum, which is currently worth almost 650,000 US dollars, for “The Metaflower Super Mega Yacht” , as stated in a TechSpot report .

The NFT yacht was created by Republic Realm , an NFT development and innovation platform. In addition, Republic Realm is already involved in 19 different NFT games. The best-known of these games include, in addition to Sandbox, Axie Infinity, Decentraland, Mirandus, Loot, Ember Sword and Star Atlas.


Republic Realm's virtual ship has four decks with spacious lounge areas, a whirlpool, a dance floor with a DJ desk and a helicopter landing pad, as well as a spacious dinghy garage. It is known as the "Crown Jewel of the Sandbox Metaverse". Therefore for Republic realm it is not surprising that the luxury yacht was recently asset NFT to the most expensive, ever in Sandbox was sold .

Opinions on the luxury NFT are divided on crypto Twitter. Harsh Goenke, an Indian entrepreneur, cited the sale as another example of rich people having too much money and believes the entire NFT space is a huge scam.

Other Twitter users celebrated the sale and see it as a new milestone for the entire non-fungible token space.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin

British financial regulator criticizes cooperation between Binance and Paysafe

  The British financial regulator FCA has expressed concerns about the partnership between market-leading crypto exchange Binance and payment service provider Paysafe. As the British regulator complains, the partnership gives Binance access to the influential British payment network Faster Payments Service (FPS), from which the crypto exchange was previously cut off. Last June, the FCA ordered Binance to stop all business activities in Great Britain. As a result, prominent banks such as Barclays have terminated their cooperation with the leading crypto trading platform . Through the cooperation with Paysafe, Binance can now again offer deposits in British pounds sterling and transactions within the European Payments Area (SEPA). However, this fact is a thorn in the side of the FCA, as it classifies the crypto exchange as a “considerable risk factor”. However, the financial regulator sees little room for maneuver to counteract this, as the Financial Times reports . “ Paysafe understands
