Crypto Gambling During Lockdown: Is a Virtual World the Answer?

This is the vision of Decentraland (DCL), a “metaverse” built on the blockchain where users can buy up virtual land, construct virtual houses, set up businesses, and create revenue streams by selling to other users. A crypto-centric, decentralized version of Second Life, Decentraland is the first virtual habitat owned entirely by its users, with land divided into parcels that can be purchased using an ERC20 crypto-token, MANA.

Decentraland is the most ambitious world-on-a-blockchain project in existence, with users encouraged to link a digital wallet to their avatar and store their various names, collectibles and MANA, assets which can be bought and sold just like any property owned in the real world. The casino, which occupies 52 LAND parcels at the coordinates -120, 135 is part of Decentraland’s very own Casino Quarter known as Vegas City.
