What is "The Sandbox" (SAND)
The Sandbox is a virtual world where players can build, own, and monetize their gaming experiences on the Ethereum blockchain using the platform’s utility token SAND.Players can create digital assets in the form of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), upload them to the marketplace, and integrate into games with Game Maker.
A LAND is a digital piece of real estate in The Sandbox metaverse that players can buy to build experiences on top of. Once player owns a piece of LAND, the player will be able to populate it with games and ASSETS. Multiple LANDs can be combined to form an ESTATE.
A total of 166,464 LANDs will ever be available, contained in a map that will form The Sandbox metaverse.
GEM and CATALYST defines the tier, scarcity, and attributes of ASSET. CATALYST adds empty sockets to the NFTs that can be filled with GEMs. The higher the quality of the CATALYST, the more sockets your ASSET will have.
Users can monetize their time on the platform, keeping 95% of SAND as revenue share by:
Selling ASSETS
Users can create and sell ASSETS on the marketplace as NFTs.
Owning a LAND
Buy a LAND in one of the LAND sales. Players can then rent them or populate them with content to increase the LAND's value.
Building Games on the Game Maker
Build and monetize games using the Game Maker on the LANDs that are owned by players.
Through the use of ERC-1776, The Sandbox allows platform users to initate transactions on the Ethereum blockchain while transaction gas fees are paid by the platform, optimizing overall user experience.
50% of all SAND transaction volume, collected from LAND sales, Premium NFT sales, transaction fees and subscription services is going to the Foundation
The Foundation supports the ecosystem of The Sandbox, contributing to the growth of awareness about NFTs, Metaverse, and $SAND adoption.
