What is Everyone Doing in metascocosmos Cryptovoxels?

Original author: Dawn.X, Chen Qing rambling

This paper mainly expounds CV from the following three aspects:

● What is CV?

● What can the owner do in a CV?

● What can a player do in CV?

What is CV?

Cryptovoxels, short for CV, was founded in April 2018 by Nolan Consulting, based in Wellington, New Zealand, with Ben Nolan as the team's founder (Figure 1).

Liu Cixin, the author of the Three-Body Problem, once said, "There are two roads in front of mankind: one outward, leading to the sea of stars; the other inward, leading to virtual reality. . CV is one such virtual reality world. CV has so far developed more than 5,000 plots on 20 islands (see Figure 2 for a full map), and about 90% of the plots have been sold.

CV is a project based on the Ethereum blockchain. All transactions and land ownership for each wallet address (similar to a bank card number) are publicly recorded on the chain and cannot be tampered with, which is why it is possible to download statistics of transactions and holdings from the chain without official permission. In addition, through the wallet address of the trader, without the permission of the address, you can understand all the transaction records under the address (including the counterparty, transaction time, transaction content, etc.) and its assets (not limited to CV land, other art collection NFT can be seen); By CV the number of any lot, you can know all the historical data of the lot being traded. Blockchain technology is a great invention, and CV is a fantastic creation based on this great invention.

investment

No matter in the virtual world or real life, investment will be mentioned when it comes to land and real estate, and CV is no exception. The average transaction price of CV's lot in August 2021 is around 2.2ETH, 7,100 USD and 45,800 RMB (converted at the exchange rate of August 31), and the transaction volume has been active recently. These buyers, they can resell in the secondary market, and what happens when they sell? We find something interesting.

A total of 622 wallet addresses with simultaneous buying and selling records for a plot were collected up to August 2021, with a total revenue (selling price -- buying price) of $3.89 million from June 2018 to August 2021. However, some are happy and others are worried. Below are the top ten wallet addresses with the largest yield multiple (FIG. 3), the transactions of the top ten wallet addresses with the largest loss rate (FIG. 4), the plots with the largest yield multiple and the plots with the largest loss rate (FIG. 5).

Figure 3: & have spent Top 10 wallet addresses in revenue multiples

Figure 4: Top 10 wallet addresses for loss rates (i.e., negative returns)

Figure 5: Transaction details of the plots with the largest return multiple and the plots with the largest loss ratio

What is shocking is that the top 10 earnings multiple is more than 149 times, and the maximum earnings multiple is as high as 1301.92 times. The wallet address with the maximum yield multiple has only traded one parcel, parcel number 2302, which is located at the south coast of the main island. The parcel was bought at 0.11ETH in 2018 and sold at 10ETH on August 31, 2021. The parcel has appreciated 90 times from 0.11ETH to 10EHT. The value of ETH is 14 times higher than that of US dollar, and the yield rate of this plot is 1391 times.

Plot 1205 with a large loss rate was purchased in September 2020 at 3.49ETH and sold in October of the same year at 0.4ETH. The recent time interval was less affected by ETH fluctuations, because the sold price was lower than the average price, leading to a large loss rate. But the exact reason for the lower sale price may be known only to the landowner.

"Note: We found some addresses only the seller in the process of statistical records, is obtained by other address to plot, that is, not directly buy this address, the address of two different address may be the same user, while in the process also have the difference, but because of our unknown to address behind the landlord, is not convenient, so this part is not included in the above analysis data."

To build

Compared with reality, CV is more convenient to build, save time, effort and money, and can be unconstrained.

There are three main features (material types) built in CV: Voxels (3D pixels), Image and audio, among which image and audio can be uploaded directly.

Voxels includes CV built-in Voxels and external upload voxels. Voxel is mainly colored bricks, can be directly click to use. External upload voxels require specialized software, such as MagicaVoxels. MagicaVoxels are easy to get started with, but it takes a bit of practice to make an elaborate finished product, but once mastered, you can do whatever you want. Here are a few examples of construction in action:

The author was attracted by The MagicaVoxels software for the first time. After a trial of various functions, he transformed the first Voxel, a big red table with smiley face pattern (FIG. 6), and had the honor to participate in a wedding banquet.

But I was shocked when I saw the distinctive buildings. Those featured buildings like:

A fantastic maritime amusement park (Figure 7). In this museum, you can see the red-topped castle, romantic fireworks, exquisite bar, sailing boats, carousel, fountain, rainbow, magnificent. Amusement park Links:

A headquarters that looks like a real one (Figure 9). Real Vision's CV headquarters, if you don't take a closer look at the exterior, would you think it was taken in a European town? Venues link: https://www.cryptovoxels.com/play?coords=N@352W, 51 s, 3.5 U

Haolinju is a beautifully decorated seaside restaurant (Photo 10). On the first floor are food stalls, marbled walls, long tables and stools, napkins on the table and landscape paintings under the table. The second floor is a private room for 8 people. The third floor is barbecue style, beer, barbecue, folding table, small stool. Decoration design and presentation, a professional hotel immediately before my eyes. Venue Links:

Whale Garden is an elegant antique building (Fig.11). The overall style is jiangnan garden style. A giant whale hangs over the pavilion, white walls and grey tiles, rockery gardening and murals, Chinese doors and Windows in the interior, Zhuangzi's "Happy And Unaccompanied Journey" on the wall, and other small details can be seen everywhere. Such exquisite technique and detail is breathtaking! Venue Links:

The above only lists the five characteristic buildings, built these need not buy any materials, without a huge construction team, need not take months or years, without programming (programming are one of the icing on the cake), only by imagination design, software operation was present at this point, and these are only the tip of the iceberg CV buyers creation. Therefore, I believe that design and construction with heart and enjoy the pleasure of experience will also bring a sense of achievement in creation.

business

Most of the buildings in CV are Gallery, HQ, Tower, Garden, House, Shop, Club, Museum and MVB. Of course, it also includes amusement parks, restaurants and other buildings.

From the outside and inside, the building looks exactly like its name. However, in addition to the appearance or decoration of some buildings with sufficient characteristics, there is no follow-up substantial business activities, such as restaurants, amusement parks, private homes; Some buildings have different names, but their business contents are not worthy of the name. Marble Tower, for example, is a tall Tower, but it is actually an exhibition.

In view of this, we classify the actual operation into four parts: exhibition, shop, party and headquarters publicity.

The exhibition. Artists in order to promote their own works of art, individual or institutional collectors in order to display their own art collection, it is arranged in the venue is not regularly changed; Curators may hold exhibitions according to venue conditions (Figure 12). For cryptographic artworks produced on the chain, to display them in the CV virtual world itself is to return the virtual to the virtual, and the owners of those exhibition halls, through the construction of museums and exhibitions to achieve the virtual display of customized.

Shop type buildings are currently the most closely connected with the outside. You can click the product to enter the external purchase page (FIG. 13). For example, Vox Walk is a standard grid with a visual sense of shopping. The items placed in the grid are also featured by the virtual world. You can click on all kinds of Voxels, such as clothes, shoes, helmets and so on. The Cryptopunk. shop is a punk store where punk collectors display and sell their punk collections to get a share.

Online gathering is mainly to plan activities outside CV, invite participants, select the event address inside CV, and then hold activities. In this process, CV mainly acts as an online meeting or banquet hall. Events that funnel traffic into virtual Spaces, such as the recent "first NFT virtual Human wedding in the Metasomes", have successfully attracted many visitors (Figure 14).

Headquarters publicity function. Some of the pavilions, called HQ, are indeed designed to convince HQ that no one will believe them (Figure 15). The elegant red brick cottage at Real Vision's headquarters; When Mintbase entered the hall, there was a beautifully decorated front desk with a prominent logo. Photo of a timely baked Pizza on the left side of the Rare Pizza reception desk. As a publicity for the company, I think the effect has been achieved. After all, I couldn't help but search for what Real Vision is and where Rare Pizza sells pizzas.

In the operation stage of CV venues, there are few types of interactive projects with serious homogeneity. Among interactive projects, exhibitions are the most popular, followed by shopping, and there are fewer kinds of shopping. Whether it is exhibition or shopping, flow is king. The number of visits to CV is up significantly this year compared to previous years (Figure 16), with more than 1 million visits per month since March, the world is thriving.

What can a player do in a CV?

The CV world is characterized by ease of entry and freedom of flight.

As a tourist, you only need to prepare a computer, enter the CV's official website, https://www.cryptovoxels.com/, or any of the above features links to the venue, can enter the virtual world. In CV, one of the special abilities you use is flight (Figure 17), which is easily triggered by an "F" key.

Figure 17: Special powers - flight

In CV, you can see exhibitions, shop, join virtual parties, and experience the fun of building for free.

CV itself is like a huge exhibition hall, where the carefully constructed pavilions are displayed like exquisite 3D artworks. When you enter this space, you are in this pavilion, you fly through the air, you fly over one 3D artwork below you, and suddenly one impressing you appears, lands, and then views it from a 360 degree Angle. This is the beauty of the metadverse.

Once you enter a specific gallery, you open the door to a new collection of punk art, favorite art, etc.

You can come across an invitation link to a virtual party and join a virtual party, such as cyberdisco, online wedding banquet, blind date party, communication, clocking in and taking photos.

Experience building fun for free. Even if you did not buy land, you also can log on to https://www.cryptovoxels.com/account/spaces by imtoken purse, to create the plot, built to play.

Write in the last

Over the past three years, the CV team has steadily developed this world, CV buyers have built it with imagination and technology, and more and more players have come to see it. And CV this road to virtual reality, how can go further? The more diversified the venue management, the closer the connection with reality, and the stronger the sustainable playability after freshness, the more spacious the future road will be.
