Representatives of the metaverse The Sandbox announced that avatars of the world-famous DJ Steve Aoki would appear in their virtual universe. They will be integrated as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), a collection of 3,333 items depicting the celebrity herself. Each element will have unique features and give specific bonuses to the owners for earning a SAND token in the game.
Users will be able to purchase virtual items with different levels of rarity. The rarest will be the “Golden Card”, which will account for only 2% of the total supply of tokens, and the most common “human” card will be 35%. A random generation created each avatar.
NFTs will become available on July 25, 2022, for whitelist members and on July 27 at 17:00 Moscow time for open trading. Each one will sell for 100 SAND, or about $135.
Steve Aoki has stated that he is a big fan of the metaverse. He recalled that in January of this year, he gave a virtual concert with Masked Wolf and Tigerlily in another Decentraland metaverse.
In addition, Aoki owns his platform called The A0K1VERSE. This is a virtual world that gives privileges to collectors and active participants. It allows celebrity fans to earn digital rewards and real-life bonuses, including free tickets to Aoki’s concert, access to private events, unique merchandise, early access to NFT releases, and more.
