In simple words, Blockchain was very hard to change and it has to be validated and then at the time when it’s updated it’s updated for everyone. Blockchain is decentralized and no one controls it. Also, everyone can see it and it’s also always the real ownership in the virtual worlds.
What is NFT?
The basic thing that you need to know about the NFT is that they stand for anything in the metaverse. Such as the in-game items, characters, or even if it can be the piece of the land. Remember that NFT can be anything that is unique and exists on the blockchain and can be owned by people.
What is Cryptocurrency?
Cryptocurrency refers to the currency which is inside the game world. In the sandbox game the currency is sand and yes sand exists on the blockchain, it is real, limited, verifiable, and decentralized so no organization even if the sandbox cannot control the sand now, yes they can control the percentage of it like they have the war chest. But the sand is itself contractually limited and that’s why there is a limit to inflation. The basic thing you need to know about the cryptocurrency now is that it is the in-game currency, which you can use to change it for US dollars or in your local currency.
What is Sandbox?
