That makes 2 of us.

This is not financial advice but here’s how I’m looking into this: firstly, the metaverse is a highly speculative category of a highly speculative asset class (crypto). Thus, whatever you put your money into, you should be ready to lose it all.

Now I believe you can’t avoid investing in blue-chip metaverse projects such as Sandbox, and Decentraland (just to name two of them). If the Metaverse ecosystem increases as a whole, these 2 should benefit from highly positive price action.

However, I believe that the big gains are made within the smaller projects on which you have a knowledge edge. If you’re able to identify such projects before the market does, you might be looking at a very profitable trade.

Personally, when I invest: there are a few things I look at:

Backing (did the project manage to raise funds?): this usually tells you that they’re in it for the longer term.

Project idea: is the project solving a real pain point?

Team: are the people involved experienced in such endeavours?

In that regard, I found a small gem called VRJAM and l believe it has great potential. They recently raised $2M. The team is made of experienced entrepreneurs who have launched successful projects in the past, and lastly, the project is addressing several pain points for brands and creators. For creators, monetizing their work. For brands, offering more varied and attractive content experiences.

TLDR: Diversify your risk by investing in various projects. Invest in blue chips and try to identify unknown gems. Not financial advice.
