There has never been a better time to start playing Upland. Upland is the new NFT, blockchain real estate game, designed to be played like monopoly on steroids.  With so many new properties available now in virtual Staten Island and on Thursday even more new properties coming online there are a lot of advantages to being a new player now.

Introducing… Bakersfield!

This Thursday, May 20th, at 10:00 PM PT, we are aiming to release Bakersfield in its entirety! The previous releases of Staten Island were some of our smoothest yet, and a direct result of many improvements made to the underlying infrastructure. As we continue to iterate and improve, we will be moving forward with the release of Bakersfield in California. Like Staten Island, Bakersfield will serve as another “starter city” intended to give new players opportunities to engage with the Upland economy. In accordance with this fact, 75% of properties will also be FSA, as they were with SI.

FSA properties are the lowest pricing available for Upland NFT, virtual real estate properties. A smart beginner will only buy FSA properties with rare exceptions. With the profit you make you will be in a better position to trade in the regular market when your FSA property limit takes effect and your price advantage runs out on new un-minted non FSA purchases.

Bakersfield Staten Island, Beginners FSA Paradise

FSA, Fair Sale Act, properties are only available to new players, and a new player can only buy $100 worth, before being booted up into the game status with permission to purchase only new un-minted properties in the regular priced market. FSA pricing is an incentive to new players to put them on an equal footing with players who have already acquired property, strategic advantages, and knowledge of the game.

Can You Double Your Money?

Yes you can. There is no guarantee however. You may not do it on every property as well. If you futz around you can even lose money. And you do have to be patient, once you buy a property. No one will come calling 5 minutes after you buy and want to buy from you. It doesn't work like that. Upland goes on forever. However, if you are a beginner, with FSA in hand, and more properties still available to purchase, in a few days, or even hours, according to the activity in the game, as the FSA properties begin to become scarce on the board, the seasoned players, who have to buy new properties at slightly higher prices, and have already bought the cheap new un-minted properties available to them, will come calling. The graphic above, with the green FSA properties, is in Staten Island. It is a more valuable Collection district area of NFT virtual real estate properties.

All UPX rewards from property owned by a  player is boosted when enough properties are owned in a collection district. This picture above, is a game graphic of the Great Kills area of Staten island, with FSA properties still available. Completing the Great Kills collection brings a 1.5x UPX boost. UPX is game currency you buy with dollars and trade in the game. 

Recent Beginners Market History

Upland has a social media channel on Discord. During the recent Brooklyn and Oakland property releases, within a day or two after the full release of properties for sale,, it was common to see offers on discord, to new players for them to buy remaining FSA properties for seasoned players who would guarantee to pay double the money in certain areas. Upland is a real community of players who talk and trade day and night. It is a great introduction to the exciting new world of NFT blockchain, crypto trading and collecting.
