This will be a milestone for the Sandbox since the Metaverse has only had four-legged avatars as NPCs and not as playable avatars before.

Key Insights:

  • Tezos powered DOGAMÍ partnered with Sandbox to bring its NFT based dog avatars to the Metaverse.
  • DOGAMÍ also acquired land in the Metaverse to establish a community hub.

As the Metaverse expands and involves more developers and market participants, we expect to see newer things in the virtual world.

A contributor to that will be the DOGAMÍ NFTs which will become a part of The Sandbox’s Metaverse.

Metaverse Has Dogs

The partnership signed between The Sandbox and Tezos backed DOGAMÍ will enable the NFTs to be playable avatars in the Metaverse. This will be a first for the Sandbox since earlier four-legged avatars were only limited to being an ‘NPC’ (Non-Playable Character).

The interest in DOGAMÍ NFTs has already increased, with the collection having over 3.75k owners. With about 8,000 of such NFTs available, the floor price currently stands at 295 Tezos which translates to about $902.

Furthermore, the NFT collection has conducted about 41.93k Tezos ($128k) worth of transaction volume in 24 hours.

Thus, the anticipation for their arrival will certainly allure many investors to be a part of The Sandbox through these DOGAMÍ avatars.

DOGAMÍ has also acquired a 3×3 estate S-LAND in the Metaverse to establish a Community Hub through which DOGAMÍ intends on introducing the first-ever pet-friendly experience.

Commenting on this partnership, Sebastien Borget, COO & Co-Founder of The Sandbox, said,

“We welcome the DOGAMÍ pet-lovers community into The Sandbox – we are pleased to allow the Dogamers to play with their virtual dog companions. the DOGAMÍ NFTs. We hope to expand their creative universe with our no-code Game Maker creation tool, inspiring new types of adventures and experiences alongside their virtual companion. As part of this partnership, DOGAMÍ team is also unveiling the first application of a cross-chain interoperability bridge between Tezos and Ethereum. We’re really thrilled by the possibilities”

What Is DOGAMÍ?

Backed by Ubisoft, Animoca Brands, and The Sandbox, the mass-market NFT play-to-earn mobile game is an augmented reality pet simulation. The game uses AR to train and nourish their DOGAMÍs, which are essentially an NFT.

The Sandbox is already peaking for its Metaverse, with LAND rates touching a high of $10k. Having sold over 17k LAND in the last three months, Sandbox could attract more investors should such partnerships continue.
