Metaverse Real Estate

Metaverse real estate remains the emptiest hype, with investors paying millions for virtual land in Decentraland and The Sandbox only to see values plummet by 90% from 2021 peaks. User activity on these platforms is negligible, with Decentraland averaging fewer than 1,000 daily active users—95% lower than the typical online game. This underperforms #3 Meme Stock Trading, which at least saw temporary gains; metaverse land has no income or utility, and a 2023 study found 80% of parcels never visited. Cheaper than the average speculative asset, yet still overpriced.
