The wonderful features of ‘Catizen’ and ‘Steam Runner’

Features of Catizen and Steam Runner

Features of Catizen

1. Web3 game that can be played entirely on Telegram

Catizen operates as a Telegram mini-app, so there is no need to download any additional apps, and you can start playing simply by launching @catizenbot.

2. World-leading user growth

Catizen gained over 30 million users in just six months after its release, making it the fastest-growing GameFi project in Telegram history. This is an exceptional speed, not only as a Web3 game, but also as a game on a social platform.

3. ‘Tap-to-Earn’ & Idle Merge Game

  • Idle Gameplay: A simple game where you collect cats, merge cats of the same level to raise them, and earn $vKITTY.
  • ‘Tap-to-Earn’ Mechanism: A model where you tap at regular intervals to earn rewards
  • Merge (composite) system: By combining low-level cats, you can generate higher-level cats and maximise your earnings

This hybrid model of ‘merge + idle + play-to-earn’ is different from conventional GameFi, and is designed to provide a return even with short periods of play.

4. Gameplay and airdrops are directly linked

Catizen uses a ‘Play-to-Airdrop’ model, where players can earn tokens such as $xZEN in-game and become eligible for future $CATI airdrops.

This model is designed to increase the number of users who play the game continuously, rather than ‘short-term participants who only play for airdrops’.

5. The ‘Catizen AI’ concept, compatible with AI & AR

The development roadmap includes a plan for a ‘Catizen AI’ function that allows users to interact with an AI cat. This combines the AR function of smartphones with AI to

  • allow users to play with a virtual cat in the real world
  • and to interact and take actions according to their preferences
  • making the cat NFT a more unique character.

This has personal metaverse-like elements. Once this function is implemented, it will be possible to have an experience that goes beyond a simple click game.

6. The fusion of Play-to-Earn and advertising economies

Catizen will introduce not only ‘Play-to-Earn’ but also a ‘advertising economy model’.

  • Users will be able to earn rewards by watching Web3 ads
  • Companies will be able to develop gamified advertising using Catizen
  • Continuous investment of advertising funds by sponsor companies

Summary: Unique elements of Catizen

A Web3 game that can be played entirely on Telegram (no Dapp required)

The fastest growing GameFi project in the world (30 million users in 6 months)

Abandoned & merged ‘Tap-to-Earn’ gameplay

Dual chain support for TON & Mantle (with token supply adjustment)

‘Play-to-Airdrop’ model to promote continued play

‘Catizen AI’ concept with AI & AR support

Probability of a non-pay-to-play economy due to continuous advertising funding from sponsor companies

Features of Steam Runner

1. A fusion of maze exploration and run-action

Steam Runner is based on the general ‘endless runner’ format, but it is distinctive in that it incorporates complex maze elements.

  • Players not only run in a straight line, but also need to choose a route while progressing through the maze.
  • The overall layout of the maze can be checked on the mini-map in the top right, and choosing the right route is key.

2. A unique world view of Steam Punk and the Metaverse

The setting of this game is a 400-year-future steampunk fantasy world.

  • The maze is filled with buildings and facilities decorated with steam pipes and other elements.
  • You can also play stages based on the forest and underground areas of the main game.
  • It is positioned as part of the ‘Earthlings Land’ metaverse that uses blockchain technology, and the in-game tokens and items are linked to assets in that world.

3. Heart-pounding chase by Wolf

In Steam Runner, there is a unique system where ‘Wolf’ chases the player, rather than just avoiding obstacles.

  • By using certain items (e.g. Taser gun), you can temporarily repel the Wolf.

4. Real economy system using Hedera Hashgraph

Steam Runner uses Hedera Hashgraph among blockchain technologies, and has the following features

  • ‘$STEAM’ tokens are awarded as rewards based on weekly rankings, and you can earn real virtual currency based on your game play results.
  • Tokens earned in the game can be sold on DEX (decentralised exchange), and can be exchanged for other virtual currencies or legal tender.
  • There is a link with NFTs, and if you have a specific NFT (Earthlings Avatar), you can use a special character in the game.

5. Weekly leaderboards & competitive elements

Steam Runner has a weekly ranking competition, with rewards for the top players.

  • Scores are tallied every Sunday, and STEAM tokens are distributed to the top 200 players.
  • The key to a high ranking is finding the optimal route through the maze and fighting off more wolves.
  • Even free players can enter the rankings and earn money depending on their skills.

6. A blockchain game that you can play for free and earn money

In many Play-to-Earn (P2E) blockchain games, an initial investment (such as purchasing NFTs) is often required. However, Steam Runner has its own uniqueness in the following points.

  • The game can be downloaded and played for free. (You can play without NFTs without any problems.)
  • You can earn tokens by playing in the game and convert them into cash.
  • There are NFTs and in-game purchases, but these are optional, and the game is designed so that it does not become too ‘Pay-to-Win’ (i.e. favouring those who pay).

Summary: Unique elements of Steam Runner

✅ New-style gameplay combining ‘maze x run action’

Steampunk-style metaverse world view

Thrilling system where wolves chase you

Utilises Hedera Hashgraph blockchain and is linked to the real economy

Weekly rankings allow you to compete and get rewards

You can play for free and earn money (even without NFTs)

Continuous updates add new content

Steam Runner is not just a P2E game, but has established a unique position as a ‘money-making run action game that fuses strategic route selection and skill action’.

No additional app installation required! You can start playing immediately.

Q4. Is Catizen free to play?

✅ It’s free to play.

There is no initial cost, and you can earn rewards by raising cats in the game and completing tasks. However, if you want to progress more quickly, you can purchase items and tokens.

🔹Gameplay

Q5. How do I progress through the game?

  1. Summon cats (low-level cats are born)
  2. Merge cats of the same level → Evolve into higher-level cats!
  3. Cats produce $vKITTY → This is used to make money running the cafe
  4. Use rewards to upgrade and boost
  5. Get extra rewards from tasks and events!

Q6. What is $vKITTY?

It is the in-game currency in Catizen that can be used to buy cats and upgrade the cafe. As cats are produced over time, they will increase just by leaving them alone.

Q7. What is $FISH used for?

  • It is used as food to accelerate the growth of cats.
  • It is used to participate in the Roulette (fishing mini-game).

Q8. What is $xZEN?

  • A special token that can be earned in-game
  • Increases the rate of $CATI airdrops
  • Can also be used to exchange for limited items and in-game rewards

Storing $xZEN will allow you to receive more $CATI in future airdrops, so it’s an important token for those who play for the long term!

🔹Blockchain & Tokens

Q9. What is $CATI?

It is a virtual currency that is listed on external exchanges and is the native token of Catizen. It is used for in-game upgrades and rewards, and by holding it, you can also expect benefits such as the release of future features.

Q10. What is the maximum number of $CATI that can be issued?

🔸 The maximum number of issues is 1 billion.

🔸 It is distributed on two blockchains, TON & Mantle.

🔸 If the supply on one chain increases, the other chain will be locked.

Q11. How much of $vKITTY, $FISH and $xZEN will be issued?

  • $vKITTY → Infinite issuance (because cats are produced in the game)
  • $FISH → Infinite issuance (distributed as rewards for tasks and mini-games)
  • $xZEN → Supply amount not announced (may be adjusted due to its relation to airdrops)

Q12. Which chain should I play on, TON or Mantle?

The gameplay is almost the same on both chains, but airdrop rewards and liquidity may differ, so it’s best to choose based on which ecosystem you’re more interested in. It’s possible to switch chains later on, regardless of which one you choose.

🔹Earnings and airdrops

Q13. Can I earn $CATI even if I don’t pay?

✅ You can earn $CATI even without paying.

If you save up $xZEN, you will have a chance to receive an airdrop of $CATI at the end of the season.

Q14. How do I earn $CATI?

  1. Earn $xZEN by completing tasks → Increase airdrop multiplier
  2. Receive $CATI directly through events and ranking rewards
  3. Earn $CATI indirectly through game play (e.g. by participating in Launchpool)

Q15. When can I get $CATI airdrops?

Airdrops are held every season. You need to play actively for a certain period of time to get rewards, so check the event information.

🔹Community & Support

Q16. Where is the official Catizen community?

Q18. What kind of updates are planned for the future?

  1. Catizen AI implementation (interaction with cats through AR & AI)
  2. Introduction of advertising revenue model (earn money through Web3 tasks)
  3. Gameplay expansion (new merge mechanism & event additions)
  4. NFT evolution (customisable cat NFT implementation)

Q19. When is the best time to start?

The earlier you start, the more chances you have to get an airdrop reward, so we recommend you start playing now and save up some $xZEN!

💡 Summary

  • Catizen is a Web3 game that you can easily start playing on Telegram
  • ‘Play-to-Airdrop’ model that allows you to earn $CATI airdrops
  • Easy gameplay that lets you earn money by leaving it alone and merging

Plans for 2025 and gamer analysis

New content and game updates: In 2025, Steam Runner content expansion will continue. In fact, an update was released in January 2025, just after the start of the year, to adjust the game balance. It is thought that gameplay experience improvements will be made in stages in the future, such as adjusting the difficulty and reward distribution, and adding new obstacles and gimmicks. Currently, you need to link your wallet and receive rewards via the website, but in the future, it is thought that improvements will be made so that you can connect directly to HashPack wallets etc. from within the mobile app and seamlessly earn and manage $STEAM.

Changes in the token economy: The token economy surrounding Steam Runner will also continue to develop towards 2025. The Earthlings project as a whole uses a dual token economy, with the main currency $STEAM and the in-game currency $WATER coexisting. The design of the economy takes into account its sustainability, for example, by using a system that uses a portion of the revenue from $WATER to buy back $STEAM on the market to maintain the value of $STEAM. The launch of the main Earthlings service is now in sight for 2025, and demand for $STEAM tokens is expected to increase further as a result. For example, the full-scale buying and selling of land and building NFTs within the metaverse and the activation of the user-to-user trading market will increase the number of occasions where you can use the tokens you have earned in Steam Runner.

NFT-related measures: Earthlings continues to plan new measures that utilise NFTs. In addition to the avatar NFT linkage implemented in 2024, it is expected that new limited character and skin NFTs will be released in 2025 and that they will be made available for use within Steam Runner. In fact, at the end of 2024, the NFT of the unique character ‘GRELF’ was announced and made playable in Steam Runner, but there is a possibility that characters and NFTs of the residents of the Earthlings world will be added in the future to match seasonal events. In addition, there may be crossover elements being considered, such as the appearance of pet (sidekick) NFTs and vehicles that appear in the main Earthlings game in Steam Runner, and the ability to temporarily gain power-up effects in the game. There have been no official announcements, but measures to boost the community around NFTs will probably continue in 2025.

Official roadmap and development plan: The developer Earthlings.land has indicated on the official roadmap that they will continue to develop Steam Runner and the main Earthlings game in parallel in 2025. The strategy is to use Steam Runner to keep the community together while building a new user base until the main game, which is a large-scale open world game, is completed, and 2025 is the year that will mark the turning point. The specific schedule is still fluid, but the main game is being developed as a steampunk-style metaverse, a large-scale economic zone where users can own assets such as towns and stations is expected to be released in 2025. It is thought that the Steam Runner development team will also adjust their roadmap in line with the progress of the main game, and for example, there is a possibility that events within Steam Runner will be held to coincide with the release of the main game’s alpha version, or that campaigns linked to both titles will be held before and after the launch. It is hoped that during 2025, further information regarding the release date of the main game and Steam Runner’s update plans for this will be announced officially.

Community campaigns and event information: In 2025, plans for community-oriented projects will continue to be rolled out. Weekly ranking reward events will also continue, and competition between top players will intensify. In the future, there is a possibility that campaigns will be planned to acquire new users and retain existing users, such as collaboration events with other projects and tournament-style competitions. For example, there is a possibility that measures to enliven the community will be implemented from various angles, such as crossover projects with other games in the Hedera ecosystem and Steam Runner challenge events limited to Earthlings Land NFT owners.

As mentioned above, Steam Runner has been steadily expanding its features and building its community since its launch in 2024, and in 2025, it is scheduled to add new content and further strengthen its collaboration with the main Earthlings game.

Features of Earthlings

Earthlings is an NFT metaverse online game built on Hedera Hashgraph, where players can own and manage plots such as cities, towns, villages, cabins, and land. These plots have different roles and functions in the game, and have a diverse impact on players’ experiences and strategies.

City Features

  1. Size and Influence:
    • Cities are the largest plots in the game and will function as hubs for large numbers of players and NPCs. Their influence extends far and wide, and they will be the main stage for economic activity and events.
  2. Economic activity:
    • A wide variety of businesses and transactions take place within the city, and players can make a profit by managing stores and real estate. In particular, by purchasing real estate in major cities, you can take on the role of a shopkeeper or other urban function, and deepen your economic interaction with other players.
  3. Social interaction:
    • Cities are important places for communication and cooperation, as they attract many players. You will be able to plan and participate in events, start businesses, and engage in other social activities.
  4. In-game features:
    • Cities have city halls and office buildings, and players can use these facilities to access various in-game functions and services. There are also floors dedicated to business partners, which will allow you to participate in specific projects and activities.

Town features

  1. Scale and community:
    • Towns are smaller than cities, and allow for the formation of a closer-knit community. Players can manage their town as mayor, and develop their own town while deepening their relationships with the residents.
  2. Quests and mini-games:
    • It is thought that specific quests and mini-games will be offered within towns. Players will be able to gain rewards and improve their skills through these. This will increase the diversity of gameplay and provide long-term enjoyment.

Overall evaluation (city & town)

  • Economic efficiency:
    • Cities are centres of large-scale economic activity, and are highly profitable and influential. Towns, on the other hand, can secure a stable source of income through production activities.
  • Social elements:
    • Cities require interaction and cooperation with many players, and are therefore suited to a sociable style of play. Towns can form close-knit communities, and are suited to players who value cooperative play and collaboration.
  • Variety of gameplay:
    • Both City and Town offer their own unique quests and mini-games, allowing players to enjoy a diverse gaming experience. This helps to keep things fresh even over the long term.

Features of the Village

  1. Community Building:
    • The village is a smaller version of the town, but is larger than the cabin plot. Players can form a small community within the village and work together to develop and manage the village.
  2. Resource Production and Management:
    • The village is a place where basic production activities such as agriculture and handicrafts take place. Players can produce and manage the resources and items they need in the game through these activities, and use them for trade and transactions with other players.
  3. Social interaction:
    • The village functions as a place for players to interact and cooperate with each other. Through events and joint work within the village, players can strengthen their bonds and expand their social network within the game.
  4. Foundation of economic activity:
    • The resources and items produced within the village can be used for trading on the in-game market or for exchange with other players. In this way, the village plays a part in the game’s economy and becomes a source of income for players.

Features of the Cabin

  1. Private Space:
    • The cabin functions as the player’s personal space. Here, you can store items and customise your cabin, and you can spend your own time without interference from other players.
  2. Rare Hunting Base:
    • The Cabin is an important location for encounters with rare animals. Using specific NFTs (e.g. Hunt Pins and Wen) allows players to hunt rare animals, which leads to in-game collection elements and rewards.

Features of Land

  1. Ownership of large tracts of land:
    • Land is the NFTisation of land ownership in certain areas of Europe, and by owning it, players can engage in activities and development in specific areas.
  2. Free development and creation:
    • Possessing land probably allows players to build buildings and install facilities to a certain extent. This makes it possible to develop your own community and business, and it is a way to participate in the in-game economy.
  3. Foundation for economic activity:
    • Land functions as the basis for economic activity within the game. By making use of the gamer’s plot, you can create various business opportunities, such as holding events, and promote interaction and trade with other players.

As you can see, each plot has its own unique characteristics and appeal, and offers a diverse range of experiences depending on the player’s choices and play style. By making effective use of these plots, it is possible to make your adventures and economic activities in Earthlings even more fulfilling.

I think the world of the Metaverse has descended upon us before we were ready for it, like Amazon. I think it will certainly become widespread and flourish as a service platform for the next generation, but it will take time for people’s awareness and behaviour around the world to shift. Those who are able to recognise the changes of this era early will have grasped a great opportunity.

You can enjoy the cityscape of a city that is located in the centre of the European area! This place, which has a wide range of functions and is likely to become a centre for adventure and communication, was also sold as an NFT and sold out at record speed.There is still a lot of information about city that has not been released, and there is a lot of really exciting content!!!


Town

[Introduction comment]
There are many modern facilities in town, including a bank and a railway line. It will probably become a place you visit again and again as a resting point for your adventures. I’m particularly looking forward to the railway and the bank, which are two of the features of town. You can ride the train, and you can also participate in the railway business and get a share of the fare. The best thing is that you can also start a bank business! You can lend and deposit money, and it looks like you can play around with it in an immoral way!

There are cute animals here and there in the beautiful village. Village will have functions for producing agricultural products and raising livestock, so it will be suitable for those who want to relax and enjoy nature while playing. I’m one of those people who would like to play like that, and I have high expectations for Village. In the video, there are golden wheat fields, and cute little piglets and chickens are shown. It must be fun to raise cute animals! I can’t wait to play!

[Introduction comment]
I definitely want to go to this floating island! Floating islands above the clouds, wild animals, ruins hidden in the depths of the land – the adventure begins! The pillars rising up from the sea look like Jack’s beanstalk, and the islands floating in the sky make you imagine a land of giants. The islands are connected by bridges, and it seems as if they are a legacy of ancient science and technology, and you can run around on them. Despite being islands, there are also places that look like lakes, and it’s hard to hide your surprise at just how huge the place is.

In this video, you can get a more concrete idea of the world of Earthlings Land as a whole. You can see what the outside of the towns and villages are like, and in particular, you can see where the Land is located, what functions it has, and what kinds of fun things you can do there, and you can imagine yourself having fun using the Land in various ways, which is exciting! The railway over the water and the nighttime streets are also mysterious, and you’ll want to explore the various places!

FAQ

The Sandbox

About LAND and SAND

  • Q1: What is LAND?
    • LAND is a virtual land (NFT) in The Sandbox, where creators can create and publish games and experiences.
  • Q2: How do I buy LAND?
    • You can buy LAND on The Sandbox’s official marketplace or on NFT marketplaces such as OpenSea.
  • Q3: What can I use SAND tokens for?
    • It can be used for in-game transactions, purchasing LAND and NFTs, customising avatars and items, and as rewards.
  • Q4: How can I get SAND tokens?
    • You can earn them as rewards for completing quests and events, or buy them on cryptocurrency exchanges.

Technical questions

  • Q1: On which blockchain does The Sandbox operate?
    • It operates on Ethereum. Some processes also utilise Polygon.
  • Q2: What about transaction fees (gas fees)?
    • Ethereum network fees (gas fees) are incurred, but in some cases costs can be reduced by using Polygon.
  • Q3: The Sandbox uses the bridge function, but how do you reduce the security risks? There have been many hacking incidents worldwide involving Ethereum bridge functions, such as Ronin Bridge, Wormhole, and Harmony’s Horizon Bridge. Ethereum bridge functions are also vulnerable, and in the past, flaws have been found in the program. In addition, the high transaction fees are a fundamental problem. Even though the blockchain is essentially a mechanism for preventing fraud, Ethereum has created a situation where this is not being done, and this is becoming a problem that is undermining its social credibility. This is also a problem that hurts players the most, and even though the bridge function is a technology that should be used to a minimum, there are many parts of projects that use Ethereum that rely too much on the bridge function. In that case, it could be said that it would be wiser to start development on another blockchain rather than on the Ethereum blockchain in the first place.
    • It seems that no detailed information has been released about what specific measures The Sandbox is taking. If you want to know more, you can ask about how they are reducing security risks on The Sandbox’s forum or official SNS.

Earthlings

FAQ about plots

1. What is the difference between each plot?

  • Answer:
    • City: The largest plot, the centre of economic activity and large-scale events. Many players gather here, and it has a great deal of influence.
    • Town: Smaller than a city, a place for resource management and quests. It is suitable for a community-oriented play style.
    • Village: A plot for small communities, characterised by resource production and joint activities. It is thought to be highly customisable.
    • Cabin: A plot that emphasises personal space, where you can enjoy private activities and customisation.
    • Land: A large plot of land that forms the basis for economic activity. You can expect creative play and investment.

2. Which plot is recommended for beginners?

  • Answer:
    • We recommend Land. The initial cost is relatively low, and you can get used to the game on your own land.
    • If you want to try production and economic activities that involve communication, you should consider Village.

3. Can I enjoy the game without buying a plot?

  • Answer:
    • Yes, you can participate in activities and quests provided by other players’ plots without buying a plot.
    • However, owning a plot will allow you to experience deeper economic activities and customisation.

4. How do I make money from the economic activities on my plot?

  • Answer:
    • City and Land: You can earn rewards from other players by running shops and organising large-scale events.
    • Village and Town: You can earn a steady income from resource production and trading.
    • The key to success is to think about a business model that suits the characteristics of each plot.

5. What should I do if I can’t buy a plot because it’s rare?

  • Answer:
    • You can either wait for the next plot sale or buy an existing plot in the Marketplace.
    • You can also use other players’ plots to enjoy the game. As development of the European area progresses, other areas such as Asia, Africa, and Oceania will also be added. Keep an eye out for sales there too!

6. Is there an additional cost to owning a plot?

  • Answer:
    • There is no specific additional cost to owning a plot. However, there may be costs involved in construction and operation (such as resources and tokens).

Summary and Conclusion

The Sandbox uses blockchain technology, while Earthlings is a metaverse platform that uses Hedera Hashgraph to provide users with the ability to own and utilise land within the virtual space. Comparing the structure and features of LAND, which could be said to be the most distinctive feature of both platforms, the following similarities and differences can be seen.

Common points:

LAND ownership: On both platforms, users can own land in the virtual space, and ownership is managed on the blockchain. This allows users to have management authority and operate various activities on their LAND.

  1. Metaverse Platform
    • Both are metaverse games where users can own and manage land (plots) within the digital space.
  2. Utilisation of NFTs and blockchain technology
    • Assets (plots, items) within the platform are managed as NFTs, and transactions and ownership are guaranteed.
    • The Sandbox is based on Ethereum, and Earthlings Land utilises Hedera Hashgraph.

Differences:

1. LAND structure and size:

The Sandbox: LAND is made up of 96 x 96 metre plots, and is divided and limited into a total of 166,464 plots. It is also possible to combine adjacent Land to form larger plots as ‘Estates’.

Earthlings: the total number of Lands is 8,977, which is the total number for the whole European area. A map of the future outlook has been published and it is expected to expand further from the European area and to be developed all over the world. This includes Asia and Australia.

Although no official announcement has been made, if a mechanism to integrate neighbouring areas, such as The Sandbox, is implemented, it will be possible to operate on a large scale. In this case, it would be advantageous to have many lands adjacent to each other.

In addition to Lands, there will be ‘Wastelands’ that players can freely develop and use their 3D modelling and design skills to create stalls, playgrounds, business hubs, guild bases and many other uses.

2. LAND Concept

The Sandbox

  1. For creative people who like to create
    • Suitable for players who want to focus on content creation and customisation.
    • Ideal for people who want to create their own games and buildings and publish them.
  2. For people who are interested in brands and large-scale projects
    • Recommended for people who want to be exposed to a wide network, as large companies and famous brands are participating.

Earthlings

  1. People who like resource management and co-operative play
    • This is perfect for people who like a play style where you collect and produce resources and use them to develop your village or town.
  2. People who like realistic visuals
    • This is recommended for people who want a more immersive gaming experience with realistic 3D graphics.
  3. People who want to enjoy interacting in the community of the world of Earthlings Land
    • This is suitable for people who want to enjoy forming a close-knit community with a unique worldview and co-operative play.

Summary

  • The Sandbox is for those who want to enjoy creative activities with a high degree of freedom.
  • Earthlings is for those who like to develop towns and villages and explore, or for those who want to enjoy realistic game experiences in a casual way.

Both have different appeals, so it is recommended that you choose according to your own playing style and interests.

Thank you for reading to the end.

The wonderful features of ‘Decentraland’ and ‘Earthlings Land’

Features of Decentraland and Earthlings Land

Features of Decentraland

Decentraland is a metaverse platform with a unique concept and features that are not found in other blockchain games.

1. User-led decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO) management

Decentraland is managed by a decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO) in which users themselves can participate in platform management and decision-making, without the presence of a centralised administrator. This creates a system in which users’ opinions and suggestions are directly reflected.

2. User-generated content (UGC)

Decentraland has a rich creator function that allows users to create and sell their own content and items. Even those without game development experience can easily create content using the dedicated editor and software development kit (SDK).

3. Ownership and trading of limited virtual land (LAND)

There is a limited number of pieces of land (LAND) in Decentraland, which users can own and trade. These LAND are managed on the blockchain as NFT (non-fungible tokens), and users can freely build content on their LAND.

4. Integration with advertising and brands

Real-world companies and brands are also making use of LAND for business purposes, such as purchasing LAND to build advertising and showrooms.

Interactive advertising
→Ex. A system where users can earn digital rewards by visiting specific areas.

Virtual fashion shows and Live event
→Ex. COACH and Dolce & Gabbana held shows in the metaverse. Metaverse Fashion Week 2023 (MVFW23)

Digital twin items
→Ex. NFT items linked to real-world products are offered, allowing users to enjoy the same products in both the virtual world and the real world.A sneaker brand sells virtual sneakers.

Conferences and seminars
→Ex. Business meetings and educational sessions can be held in the metaverse, allowing participants to transcend physical limitations.

Use as a place for education and learning
→Ex. It is also used as a space where educational institutions and learners can gather to hold seminars and workshops.

Because of these features, Decentraland is attracting attention as a unique metaverse platform where users can create and manage virtual worlds, and engage in economic activity and communication.

Decentraland is a unique metaverse platform that combines decentralised governance, user-generated content, and complete asset ownership through NFTs. Its greatest feature is that it is specialised as a place for ‘creation’, ‘economic activity’, and ‘self-expression’, rather than just ‘play’ as offered by other blockchain games.

Players and development staff opinions

Decentraland

Along with Ethereum, Decentraland continued to grow, and by 2021 it had shown dramatic growth.

The festival in the metaverse has created a new sense of realism that transcends various restrictions.

It seems that this kind of change for the worse is also happening.

The metaverse industry also saw huge growth in 2024.

MANA came in second place!
Decentraland, which is leading the way in promoting the possibilities of the world of web3, the world of metaverse, and the world of games, will continue to promote development around the world and have a positive impact in the future!

Earthlings

I wanted this District too. I wonder who bought it?Only 12 out of 1000 is incredibly rare.

The beautiful streets of town are full of the smell of adventure!

This NFT is packed with features that let you enjoy the village, and it also has an ‘earn function’.

Plots such as city, town, village, cabin, and land will make the game even more fun and packed with content!

It starts in the European area, but I’m really looking forward to seeing the adventure spread to other areas!

FAQ

Decentraland

What is Decentraland?

Decentraland is a virtual space (metaverse) platform based on blockchain technology. Users can buy, develop and trade land (LAND), and enjoy events and games within the virtual space. The economy on the platform is managed by the Ethereum blockchain.

How does Decentraland work?

Decentraland uses the Ethereum blockchain to tokenise ownership of land and items. The two main tokens are:

  • MANA: a virtual currency used for transactions within Decentraland.
  • LAND: a non-fungible token (NFT) representing land within the virtual space.

How do I buy land (LAND)?

  1. Buy MANA on a cryptocurrency exchange.
  2. Go to the Decentraland marketplace (official website).
  3. Choose the LAND you want to buy and pay with MANA.

What do I need to play Decentraland?

  • Web browser (Google Chrome recommended)
  • Ethereum-compatible wallet
  • Decentraland account (created by connecting a wallet)

You can explore Decentraland without a wallet, but you will need a wallet to buy land and use tokens.

Is programming required to develop land in Decentraland?

Even if you don’t have programming skills, you can easily customise land using the Builder tool. However, if you want to do advanced customisation, you will need to program using the Decentraland SDK (development kit).

Earthlings

FAQ about the plot

Q: What is the Paris City plot?

A: Paris City is the main urban area in Earthlings Land, and is made up of eight districts and one underground space. Each district has its own unique characteristics, and players can explore these areas and experience a variety of things.

Q: How do I get plots in Paris City?

A: You can buy plots in Paris City in the Marketplace.

Q: What are the characteristics of each district in the city?

A: For example, the Sheng district is a modern, organised area with a hospital and hotels at its centre. The Wagner district is a financial centre with a main bank and business towers.

Q: There are two types of Town plot: Water Town and Town. What is the difference between them?

A: Town plots are full of features that are great for playing and earning, but Water Town has features that are unique to it. These are features that support activities on the water. The field for exploring Earthlings Land includes both land and sea, and it is also possible to explore underwater. When exploring underwater, Water Town allows you to continue exploring the seabed more deeply and for longer, with more power.

Q: There are plots called ‘Cabins’. Can I find out where each one is located?

A: At the moment, it seems that there has been no official announcement about where they will be located. This is probably because the location information for the air cabins in particular is directly linked to the development status, so the timing of the release is being coordinated.

Q: I’m looking forward to the Village plot, but could you tell me more about the functions listed in the fact sheet? Like the pet shop and farm.

A: At the moment, there doesn’t seem to be any further information from the official site about functions like the inn, farm, or pet shop. As development is progressing with the aim of a 2025 release, let’s wait for further information. As the functions of each plot are diverse, the game’s system balance adjustments are probably also progressing.

Summary and Conclusion

Decentraland is a metaverse platform that uses blockchain technology, while Earthlings uses Hedera Hashgraph to provide users with the ability to own and utilise land within the virtual space. Comparing the structure and characteristics of LAND, which could be said to be the most distinctive feature of both platforms, the following similarities and differences can be seen.

Similarities:

Ownership of LAND: On both platforms, users can own land in the virtual space, and ownership is managed on the blockchain. This allows users to have management authority and operate various activities on their own LAND.

Differences:

1. Structure and size of LAND:

Decentraland: LAND is made up of 16m x 16m plots called ‘Parcel’, and the whole area is divided into 92,598 parcels. It is also possible to combine adjacent parcels to form a large piece of land called an ‘Estate’.

Earthlings: The total number of Lands in Earthlings is 8,977, which is the total number for the entire European area. The map for future prospects has been released, showing that development is expected to spread further from the European area and progress across the entire globe. This includes the Asian and African regions.

Although there is no official announcement, if a mechanism for combining adjacent areas of Land is implemented like in Decentraland, it will be possible to operate on a large scale. In that case, having a lot of adjacent lands would be an advantage.

Apart from the lands, there are ‘Wastelands’ which players can freely develop, and it is said that they can be used for various purposes such as stalls, playgrounds, business bases, and guild bases, by making use of 3D modelling and design skills.

2. How to acquire LAND:

Decentraland: Users purchase LAND using their own virtual currency, MANA. LAND is recorded on the Ethereum chain as an NFT (non-fungible token) and can be bought and sold on the marketplace.

Earthlings: LAND can be purchased on sentx (marketplace). You can obtain Land built on the Hedera Hashgraph network by paying with Hedera tokens or STEAM tokens, and you can also list and sell your own LAND there.

3. Purpose of using LAND:

Decentraland: Users create a variety of content on LAND, including games, art works, and commercial facilities, and use it as a place for economic activity and entertainment, such as buying and selling on the NFT marketplace and holding events. Land is used as a place for creative activities, and creativity and community activities are promoted.

Earthlings : Players use LAND as a base for exploration and adventure on a future Earth. You can enjoy a variety of adventures, such as exploring forests, encountering wild animals, and exploring lakes.

In general, Decentraland is a platform that focuses on users creating and trading a variety of content on their own LAND, and Earthlings Land is a platform that provides a game experience centred around exploration and adventure on a future Earth. They each have their own unique approach and characteristics in terms of LAND structure and usage.

Please choose carefully which game is right for you, taking into account the type of blockchain, initial cost, in-game tokens and platform.

Thank you for reading to the end.

Players and development staff opinions

MIR4

Media A

「Although South Korea banned P2E games, Korean company Netmarble’s “Second Country: Cross World” and WeMade’s “Mir 4” ranked first and second in the global P2E games last year. Korean companies will launch more P2E games to overseas markets this year.」

Fan B

「I just find it weird that none of the WEB 3 gaming KOLs are talking about MIR4 & Nightcrows by Wemix.

These games actually have decent gameplay, graphics and mechanics that even my eSports circle irl play and streams it religiously.

Do note that some of them don’t have prior WEB 3 background so it’s safe to assume that the games itself are enticing and attractive even to traditional gamers and not for the financial value that the game can offer.

You guys are only interested to promote rugs, no?」

Developer C

「🟢 Principais Atrações do Game:

▸Batalhas PvP em Massa: Dispute áreas e castelos em Castle Siege Conquests, onde clãs competem por recompensas exclusivas em eventos PvP intensos.

▸Economia Blockchain e NFTs: Itens do jogo podem ser mintados como NFTs e trocados por tokens DRACO, conectando suas conquistas virtuais a valor real.

▸Loot Livre e Classes: No MIR4, qualquer jogador pode pegar loot, o que traz uma dinâmica de rivalidade. Escolha entre classes como Warrior, Sorcerer e Taoist para evoluir e conquistar.」

Distributed computer Networks Blockchain Applications explorer in Latest Trends 2024

Distributed computer Networks and Blockchain Applications(explorer) in Latest Trends 2024

Applications of Distributed Networks

Distributed networks are systems in which each node (computer or device) communicates directly with each other and shares data and resources, without relying on a central server. This structure improves fault tolerance and transparency, and is being applied in a variety of fields.
Below are some specific examples.

File Sharing

BitTorrent is a file sharing protocol that uses a distributed network. It divides files into small parts and shares them between multiple users, allowing files to be distributed efficiently and quickly.

Main features:

  • Distributed file sharing: By sharing files directly between users without relying on a central server, efficient data transfer is achieved.
  • High-speed downloads: By dividing files into multiple parts and downloading them simultaneously from multiple users, speed is improved.
  • Efficient use of bandwidth: Users who are downloading can also upload to other users, so the bandwidth of the entire network can be used effectively.

Cloud storage

  • IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) is a decentralised file system that stores data on multiple nodes. This improves data fault tolerance and access speed.

Specific examples of cloud storage

  • Filecoin: Filecoin is a decentralised storage network based on IPFS. Users can earn rewards by providing excess storage, and data is stored and retrieved in a decentralised manner.
  • Storj: Storj is a decentralised cloud storage platform that encrypts and stores data in a decentralised manner. This enhances data privacy and security.

Decentralised Applications (dApps)

Applications that use decentralised networks operate without relying on a central server. For example, Uniswap is a decentralised exchange (DEX) that allows users to exchange cryptocurrencies without going through a central administrator.

Main features of dApps:

  • No central administrator: Unlike traditional applications, which are managed and operated by companies and organisations, dApps operate on blockchains and do not have a specific administrator.
  • Open source: The source code for many dApps is publicly available, so anyone can check and improve it.
  • Token utilisation: They have their own cryptocurrency (tokens), which users can use to receive services or earn rewards.
  • Smart contract utilisation: This is a system that automatically executes contracts when conditions are met, enabling highly reliable transactions.

Applications of Blockchain

Blockchain technology is also being widely applied in fields other than finance. Here are some specific examples

Supply chain management

IBM Food Trust is a system that uses blockchain to manage the supply chain for food products. This allows the entire process from food production to consumption to be tracked, improving transparency and reliability.

Digital identity

Sovrin is a digital identity management system that uses blockchain. It allows personal information to be managed securely, making it easy to verify a person’s identity online.

Medical record management

MedRec is a system that uses blockchain to manage medical records. It allows for the safe sharing of patient medical data and maintains consistency of information between medical institutions.

Latest Technology Trends for 2024.

Blockchain and distributed network technologies are evolving every day. Here we introduce the latest technology trends.

Improving Scalability

Technologies are being developed to improve the scalability of blockchains. For example, Ethereum 2.0 aims to significantly improve transaction processing capacity by introducing a technology called sharding.

Interoperability (cross-chain)

There is a lot of interest in technologies that improve interoperability between different blockchains. For example, Polkadot is a platform that connects different blockchains and enables the exchange of data and value. In addition, Chainlink provides an oracle network that allows smart contracts to access external data, enabling data collaboration between different blockchains.

Strengthening security

Research is being carried out to strengthen the security of blockchains. For example, zero-knowledge proofs are a technology that proves the legitimacy of transactions without disclosing the details of the transaction, and aims to achieve both privacy protection and security.

Specific examples of zero-knowledge proofs

  • Zcash: Zcash is a cryptocurrency that uses zero-knowledge proofs to protect the privacy of transactions. Users can prove that a transaction is legitimate without disclosing the details of the transaction.
  • zk-SNARKs: zk-SNARKs (Zero-Knowledge Succinct Non-Interactive Argument of Knowledge) is a type of zero-knowledge proof that is also used as a privacy enhancement function for Ethereum. This makes it possible to protect privacy even when executing smart contracts.

Summary

Distributed networks and blockchains are being applied in a wide range of fields, and new possibilities are opening up as the technology evolves. By understanding these technologies and keeping up with the latest trends, you can play an important role in the digital society of the future.

Technology that can change people’s lives is being developed even now!
Let’s make use of it in our daily lives and enrich our lives!
