The Decentraland Public Launch made one hell of an impact in the Metaverse, with the effects being felt right across the virtual and crypto space.

We want to thank everyone for their participation, their consistently helpful feedback and, above all, their patience. A launch just wouldn’t be a launch without glitches – and we had our fair share – but the insights we gathered over the six-day event were incredibly valuable and will of course be used to improve our virtual world.

The new Decentraland Marketplace takes off

Two days before we opened the gates to Decentraland, the new Marketplace started trading NFTs, in addition to LANDs and Estates.

To celebrate, we ran a competition to see who could trade the highest-grossing volume of MANA. The prizes on offer included:

First prize: Four premium LANDs + One-of-a-kind ‘Unique’ NFT for your Avatar.Second prize: Three premium LANDs + ‘Mythic’ NFT for your Avatar (max 10 in existence)Third prize: Two premium LANDs + ‘Legendary’ NFT for your Avatar (max 100 in existence)

And the top three wallets, with 47 out of 779 total transactions were…
