Decentraland: The Metaverse's Early Mover
- uxamanda 5y agoA few interesting ideas from the article, which uses Decentraland as an example of the metaverse: "There is only one metaverse. While the buzzword's meaning is often stretched into different configurations, there is a clear definition. The metaverse is simply the internet, updated to accommodate spatial experiences." That Decentraland is built in the "browser, open-source, with a peer-to-peer server architecture, leveraging an immature blockchain ecosystem". "In early 2020, Decentraland completed one of its initial goals – to hand control of the project over to its community. It did so by formalizing a DAO and handing it power over the essential smart contracts controlling LAND, wearables, the marketplace, and more." Here's a link to the project's original white paper: https://decentraland.org/whitepaper.pdf https://decentraland.org/whitepaper.pdf
