Building the Open NFT Metaverse and its Jobs Opportunities

We would like to cover these topics as part of our talk and how NFTs and Virtual Worlds are enabling a whole ecosystem we call the open metaverse: - The paradigm shift of community-first approach - video games have spent the last 25 years as closed-economies, dictatorships that exploit players and not rewards the ones that are the most engaged with these products. Buying virtual goods is renting when you don’t own them - The Metaverse is a profound transformation of how we’re thinking about the way we’ll be working, socializing, playing and earning through the economic opportunities and jobs it is creating. - Why the Metaverse should be a place where you can play and interact with your NFTs, coming from any NFT collection (CryptoPunks, Meebits, BoredApes etc), Crypto Art or made in The Sandbox - How we are enabling Play-to-Earn and new jobs to be created as part of our Ecosystem: Artists; Architects; Fashion Designers; Event Hosts; Community Managers; Curators etc. - What is the impact for the Creators economy - how is true ownership building up an economy of value and services? UGC meets NFTs = Ownership is even more meaningful with your own creations - Why we are bringing IPs and brands into The Sandbox? Brands and IPs strategy; create games with most popular brands is a way to attract users onboard in the Metaverse - Why are LANDS and virtual real-estate NFTs so popular and easily intelligible to non-gamers and gamers alike? What does it mean? - How is decentralization impacting governance?
