The Best Metaverse Token - SAND Vs. GALA

By Bfab | Good vibes | 17 May 2022

If you are interested in Metaverse, you might have considered the numerous projects and tokens which pumped last year - e.g., MANA, SAND and GALA:

Decentraland (MANA) is the largest one, with a market cap of $1.8 billion USD.
The Sandbox (SAND) is the second one, with a market cap of $1.7 billion USD.
Gala (GALA) is the third one, with a market cap of $700 million.

As many things have already been said on MANA, I will focus on SAND and GALA:

SAND price is currently around $1.4 USD, which is 83% lower than its All-Time High reached in November 2021 ($8.4) but 4637% above the All-Time Low. The circulating supply is currently around 1.2 billion tokens, whereas the max supply is 3 billion tokens. Therefore, there is a risk of dumping linked to the possible release of new tokens on the market. On the positive side, SAND can easily be staked directly on The Sandbox with 21% APR by using Polygon blockchain, which is really cheap. There are also more and more companies buying lands on The Sandbox - e.g., Gucci, Ubisoft, Adidas or Warner...
GALA price is currently around $0.09 USD, which is 89% lower than its All-Time High also reached in November 2021 ($0.82) but 67376% above its All-Time Low... The circulating supply is around 7.5 billion tokens, whereas the max supply is 50 billion tokens. Therefore, there is a very high risk of dumping. You cannot stake GALA, but you can buy a node to earn GALA: the price of a node is currently 448,000 GALA, i.e., around $40,000 USD... Furthermore, GALA is only on Ethereum blockchain, with high gas fees. Therefore, it is mostly for the whales. The most interesting part of GALA is the Gala games, which allows you to earn NFTs at no cost. For instance, you can earn a free Town Star NFT by clicking on this link. It is free to play for the first season but will soon become payable.

In summary, by looking at the tokenomics and the price evolution of each token since the All-Time High and All-Time Low, SAND looks a better investment than GALA, although there are some risks in both cases (note: it is not a financial advice, please Do Your Own Research).

A good way to get more familiar with these projects is to play Gala games like Town Star on Gala and earn NFTs while it is still free to play.
