The prices of metaverse-related cryptocurrencies including ApeCoin (APE) and Axie Infinity (AXS) have shot up by around 6% in the past 24 hours.
Per data from CoinGecko, APE is up 6.3% to $3.88, Axie Infinity's AXS rose 6.9% to $6.41, while The Sandbox's SAND rose 5.2% to around $0.40. Decentraland’s MANA posted more modest gains of 4.4% to reach around $0.31.
In contrast, the broader cryptocurrency market cap is only up around 1.6% in the last 24 hours.
The news came as APE recently finalized its Special Council elections, which saw five members elected to govern the future of the ApeCoin project. ApeCoin is the utility and governance token that underpins Otherside, the metaverse project from Bored Ape Yacht Club creator Yuga Labs.
Bored Ape Yacht Club co-founders Wylie Aronow ("Gordon Goner") and Greg Solano ("Garga") joined Dan Roberts and Kate Irwin on the gm podcast to talk about BAYC parent company Yuga Labs and its size and influence in the space, Ape haters, NFT haters, the SEC investigating Yuga, Buzzfeed "doxxing" Aronow and Solano earlier this year, their vision for the Otherside metaverse realm, and much more. Watch and make sure to subscribe to the gm podcast on Apple or Spotify.
Elsewhere, video game publisher Square Enix reaffirmed its commitment to blockchain and Web3 gaming in its annual New Year's letter.
The recent good news for investors follows a brutal 2022 for Metaverse-related coins; AXS and SAND were among the worst performers in what was a bleak year for crypto as a whole, both losing around 93% of their value during the course of the year.
The price move comes as a big gaming player doubles down on metaverse investment, with Yosuke Matsuda, president of Final Fantasy publisher Square Enix, recently reaffirming his company’s commitment to the space.
Billy Huang runs a metaverse advertising agency. Well, he definitely runs an advertising agency. And not so long ago, that agency did attract a suite of established brands hungry to cash in on the untold potential of the internet’s newest, immersive, virtual frontier. But given the year’s events, Huang’s now thinking about dropping the “m” word. “Maybe now that the metaverse terminology has died down, we do need a little bit of rebranding,” Huang told Decrypt. Huang’s firm, Insomnia Labs, spe...
In the company’s New Year's letter, Matsuda said that blockchain technology was one of the “top three” areas of investment for the company in the mid-future, and one on which the company was “most focused.”
Matsuda noted that while 2022 was “a year of great volatility in the blockchain-related space,” he anticipated that blockchain games would “transition to a new stage of growth in 2023.”
Coinbase has now overtaken two of the world's largest securities exchanges in terms of transaction revenue, according to a crypto analyst from the private bank Coutts. The crypto exchange generated $5.75 billion in transaction revenue over the past 12 months, compared to just $4.54 billion for the Nasdaq, where many of the world’s most valuable companies, including Apple, Google, and Microsoft, are traded. Coinbase also surpassed the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong, the HKEX, which generated $2.67 b...
After several extended reviews since June this year, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has finally approved the first spot exchange-traded funds combining Bitcoin and Ethereum. The agency has authorized Nasdaq to list the Hashdex Nasdaq Crypto Index US ETF and the Cboe BZX Exchange to list the Franklin Crypto Index ETF, according to a filing released Thursday. "The proportion of bitcoin and ether to be held by each Trust will be based on free-float market capitalizations," the filing...
Dogecoin (DOGE) fell 12.4% in the past 24 hours as a broader market decline continues, triggered by the Federal Reserve's latest economic outlook. The meme coin has dropped to $0.31, while trading volume surged 67% to $10.25 billion as holders repositioned their bags. It's now down 35% from its 2024 high of $0.47. Despite the pullback, Dogecoin's market capitalization remains at $46.6 billion, maintaining its position as the seventh-largest crypto. Powell's hawkish comments about higher-than-exp...
