Owning digital real estate or properties is just like owning or having NFTs which we all know aren't long-term investments. You can't buy an NFT and plan to hold it for years and expect to get great returns on it because this market is unpredictable and highly volatile, NFTs that are worth $2,000 today might not be worth the same tomorrow because it's all about hype and demand for certain NFTs collections and how they are promoted among investors.
As soon as an NFT collection isn't trending anymore the value of their NFTs will start dropping immediately because there won't be any people bidding for them and NFT marketplaces don't work like cryptocurrency spot markets where you ask your price and wait for someone to come and take it.
The same is the process of digital real estate or properties, they are just like digital collectibles.
The problem is that most NFT creators abandon their projects as soon as they "cash out" the money. They aren't serious enough to make the industry last a lifetime. I guess the only NFTs that will truly last are those issued by governments and corporations. The rest will simply become history, leaving many investors "holding the bag".
Digital Real Estate is still in its infancy, so anything's possible. If Decentraland and The Sandbox are constantly maintained by devs, they could last a pretty long time. It's advised to proceed with caution to avoid losing it all in an instant. Crypto land often behaves in many strange and bizarre ways, so expect the unexpected.
Yes, this is one of the main issue here on crypto space. No matter how good looking, no matter how good the utlity, no matter how well known its devs or doxxed, no matter how big the community or something that do talks about demand and recognition.If ever the developers or the team would be deciding to leave out and abandoning the project then it would really be that totally over. We do know that real estate does really sounds
good and not that they are already moving here on digital world, then i must say that it isnt that a bad idea either but its not something that i would really be putting up 100% on it.
We've seen the worst and one example is this.
Justin Bieber's Bored Ape NFT 'nightmare' investment: $1.24M losshttps://www.marca.com/en/lifestyle/celebrities/2023/07/04/64a37b8fca47414e198b45db.htmlA very sad situation indeed! This is why im not really that a fan of NFT.
