The metaverse can be a preferred destination for many art and music lovers. It is a world of digital reality where events can be organised, and people can interact using digital avatars. For many, the metaverse can be a mix of music, gaming, community building, cryptocurrency, and so on.

The Sandbox is one of the popular metaverses that comes with cryptocurrency and non-fungible token (NFT) features. Even though the price of its cryptocurrency can be very volatile, The Sandbox’s metaverse has attracted many enthusiasts, including celebrities and brands like Snoop Dogg and Adidas. The Sandbox has now invited enthusiasts to a metaverse-based event.

Let us explore what is The Sandbox Alpha Season 3 and what people can expect from it.

The Sandbox Alpha Season 3

According to the announcement, this season of The Sandbox Alpha will last 10 weeks, beginning August 24. This means that the event is live right now. It is notable that although The Sandbox has said that the event is “open to all”, an account is required to access all the “90+ experiences” and to engage in quests.

The account, which The Sandbox refers to as a TSB account, can be created only if one has a cryptocurrency wallet. Coinbase, MetaMask, and a few others are supported. The Sandbox Alpha Season 3 is highlighting elements like multiplayer experiences, and content from Snoop Dogg, Warner Music Group, The Smurfs, and other brand partners. Independent creators would also participate with their content.

One of the other highlights is resident DJ Steve Aoki at “Club XYZ”. Besides, there are rewards like SAND cryptocurrency. The metaverse has announced that the top-ranking players in Alpha Season 3 would be awarded 1.5 million SAND tokens.

The Sandbox cryptocurrency (SAND)

SAND cryptocurrency is among the top 50 cryptoassets when ranked by market cap. As of writing, the losses exhibited by the SAND token are more in comparison to Bitcoin, Ether, or other major assets. The year-to-date (YTD) loss of SAND stands at over 80%. The token’s return over the past one week is also negative.

Bottom line

The Sandbox Alpha Season 3 follows the previous season held in March this year. Despite all these events, the SAND token has failed to perform well. However, this is with virtually all cryptoassets, including Bitcoin. The Season 3, which is live now, would have multiple events and names like Snoop Dogg, and Warner Music Group can add a little glamour.
