Welcome to Metaverse Market Analysis! In partnership with OneLand, a leading financial platform for virtual lands in the Metaverse, we bring you the latest stats and data on the overall state of the Metaverse market. This week, we will be analyzing the OneLand Metaverse Market Analysis stats for the period of July 24-30, 2023.
According to OneLand’s data, the virtual real estate (VRE) market cap for the top 10 projects has experienced a 10th consecutive week of decline, dropping by 2.15% to 667,988 ETH (equivalent to a 3.54% decline to $1.244 billion). Additionally, the value of ETH fell by 1.43% to $1,861.76. These figures indicate a general downward trend in the popularity of the Metaverse among investors, which is not solely attributed to macroeconomic factors or a bear market but also due to the overshadowing presence of the next big technological advancement, AI. Furthermore, market value and land prices have been on a downward trajectory throughout the year.
In terms of trading volume, there has been a significant decline in the past 7 days. Otherside experienced a staggering 34% decrease in trading volume, reaching just 162 ETH. The Sandbox, on the other hand, saw its post-sale volume plummet to a mere 51.5 ETH, marking its lowest volume in several months. As a result, the aggregate trading volume for the top 10 projects on OneLand has dropped to nearly half of what it was just four weeks ago at the end of Q2.
However, there are some metaverse projects that have shown promising developments. Somnium Space, a VR-focused metaverse, has witnessed increased investor interest in its land parcels. The consistency in sales and upward trend in prices have caught the attention of several investors. Notably, Somnium Space parcels are traditionally more expensive than other VRE projects. Furthermore, the recent announcement of Version 3.0 has generated excitement and further fueled investor interest in this metaverse. Voxels, another legendary player in the metaverse space, has also experienced positive growth. Trading activity has been booming for Voxels, with consecutive weeks of increased sales and trading volume, resulting in the metaverse’s best daily volume in 3.5 months and its highest sale in 4 months.
Arcade, a gaming metaverse, saw a significant boost in trading volume and average price due to a top land sale, which was the first in two months. The buyer bundled four different lands into one transaction, contributing to a 17.6% increase in trading volume and a staggering 106% increase in average price. This indicates that the gaming aspect of the Metaverse continues to attract investors.
Decentraland, one of the pioneering metaverses, experienced a minimal correction in its LAND price, with a 24% increase. BYOLands, another project, seems to be approaching the 1 ETH mark again following the positive reception of the Beta launch of its mobile Racer game. These developments suggest that there is still potential for growth and adoption within the Metaverse market.
