Top Metaverse Stocks Investors May Want to Consider Buying Now

March 29, 2022 - Baystreet.ca


The metaverse may be one of the biggest stories of 2022. Thrust into the spotlight by Mark Zuckerberg, the metaverse “is a sci-fi concept whereby humans put on some sort of headset or smart glasses that allows them to live, work and play in a virtual world much like the one depicted in the ‘Ready Player One’ movie,” says CNBC. While it may take some time for the metaverse to go mainstream, Emergen Research says it could be worth up to $828.95 billion by 2028. Others, such as Matthew Ball, the CEO of Venture Capital firm Epyllion says the metaverse could be a $10 trillion to $30 trillion market. All of which could be beneficial for Tokens.com Corp. (NEO: COIN) (OTCQB: SMURF), which is the only public company that owns metaverse real estate, Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ: COIN), Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: FB), Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT), and Snap Inc. (NASDAQ: SNAP).

Major industries are already getting involved in the digital world, too. Nike Inc. just filed for several new trademarks to design and sell virtual Nike sneakers and apparel in the metaverse. CVS Corp. filed for a trademark to sell virtual goods, NFTs, and could even provide healthcare services, including prescription drugs and personal care products. Walmart Inc. “filed several new trademarks late last month that indicate its intent to make and sell virtual goods, including electronics, home decorations, toys, sporting goods and personal care products. In a separate filing, Walmart said it would offer users a virtual currency, as well as NFTs,” says CNBC.

Tokens.com Launches Canada SailGP Team Metaverse Headquarters

Tokens.com Corp. (NEO: COIN) (OTCQB: SMURF), a publicly-traded company that invests in Web3 crypto assets and businesses linked to the Metaverse and NFTs, is pleased to share that its subsidiary, Metaverse Group, has signed a lease agreement with Canada SailGP Team for its Metaverse headquarters. Tokens.com portfolio company, Metaverse Architects, has provided the design and architecture services for the installation, which is now live in Decentraland.

Canada SailGP Team is the newest team in the ultra-competitive SailGP circuit - the world’s most exciting race on-water with national teams battling in short, intense races at iconic stadium-style venues across the globe, building to the grand final – and a top prize of US$1 million. The high-tech, high-speed racing features sailing’s best athletes competing in identical hydro foiling F50 catamarans, flying at speeds approaching 100 km/h.

“I am very excited for this collaboration,” said Fred Pye, owner of Canada SailGP Team. “SailGP is at the cutting edge of its domain in a similar way to how Tokens.com and Metaverse Group each are dedicated to pushing what’s possible in their own realms. Our collaboration is aimed at helping form the new standards of how physical world firms engage in this new digital frontier and I look forward to what we will do next.”

The headquarters consists of two structures, which include the Canada SailGP Team head office. The team has commissioned Metaverse Architects to develop a display of live streams of Canada SailGP Team’s leading edge technology and create the Canada SailGP Team NFT collection. The headquarters is situated on the equivalent of 60,000 square feet of flat land. Visitors will be able to explore structures, get information on future races and spend time in dedicated meeting rooms that will showcase the Canadian team racing.

“Canada SailGP Team’s Metaverse presence bridges the gap between the physical and virtual world,” commented Andrew Kiguel, Tokens.com CEO and Executive Chairman of Metaverse Group. “We are proud to have them as a tenant and provide them with design development on our property. Metaverse Group is a one-stop shop for brands seeking to enter this new realm. We are excited to launch Canada SailGP Team’s presence in the Metaverse and showcase the team to a new audience. We look forward to cheering on the Canada SailGP Team in their races.”

These headquarters give fans an opportunity to get closer to the sport and experience all it has to offer in a way that was not previously possible. With the team strategically located in Decentraland, it will further bring new awareness to the team and sport.
