Earth2.io couldn't give us a better announcement for its one year anniversary, when I've entered the project there was no promises that we will have our own cryptocurrency and eventually aim to be a decentralised project.
This news really solidifies Earths 2 place amongst the top metaverse projects like Mana and Sand.
Despite of only being 1 year old the project has gain an enormous amount of users on its platform. A lot of people have been very sceptical about the project in the past but with recent announcements you can see the shift in how people perceive Earth2.
If you would like to dive deep into how to navigate through the platform, how to buy your first tiles etc feel welcome to leave a comment.
Feel free to ask any questions.
What is Earth2?
"Earth 2® is a futuristic concept for a second earth; a metaverse, between virtual and physical reality in which real-world geolocations on a sectioned map correspond to user generated digital virtual environments. These environments can be owned, bought, sold, and in the near future deeply customized.
A virtual 1:1 scale version of Earth is inevitable and Earth 2® is the beginning of this exciting future. Phase 1 is now live and represents the central global body that aims to determine ownership of digital assets and property inside this futuristic virtual metaverse of Earth. And you already can see the first humble beginnings of what will unfold into an economic simulation destined to provide Earth 2® with all the materials it needs to build our dream.
Built on top of MapBox technology, we have created a geographically linked digital grid layer that spans across the entire planet allowing people to claim ownership of Virtual Land in the form of tiles. It is our vision that Virtual Land will increase in value over time based on demand, location and earning potential, much the same way that physical land does, so be sure to claim your own land in key locations around the world early on!"
