According to Cryptobriefing, the sale, which includes 30,000 NFTs worth 0.2 ETH each, has reached numbers over 6,000 ETH.

Each NFT purchased will provide access to physical items, virtual wearables, and virtual event on Metaverse, including a hoodie, sweatpants and more. A roadmap including these has also been created for 2022. For more detailed information, you can access the collection's website here.


Unique NFT Dictionary

PFP (Profile Picture):

It stands for Profile Picture, a term that refers to avatar NFTs that can often be used as profile pictures. Various avatar NFTs such as punks, apes, cats, bulls and dogs are great examples.


Platform Review: MegaCryptoPolis

Released in early 2018, MegaCryptoPolis is the first NFT-based city-building strategy game. Players can own lands, houses, offices and factories in NFT format within the game. Citizens get jobs, and those who have jobs can hire employees and employ them.

Land and resource limitations are fundamental to economics in MegaCryptoPolis as in the real world. It is in the game's codes that when a player buys a plot, the owner of the plots nearby as well as the person selling the land get a share of the payment and all nearby plots become more expensive. All in-game assets are distributed among players. Developers receive a small percentage of in-game transactions as part of their sustainable revenue model.

For now, the company is on the verge of extending its existing MegaCryptoPolis model into a metadata, called Mega World, with a data-driven economy where players can create any asset, run business inside buildings, use NTFs and trade.
