A decentralized and extremely secure web, where each user is the master of their data.
It is with the arrival of blockchains, cryptocurrencies, NFTs and metaverses that we can talk about and define this new evolution of the internet.
First started in 2008, blockchain is a technology for storing and transmitting information without a central controlling body.
This gives blockchains a very high level of transparency and security.
Thus, users of the blockchain, connected in a network, can share data without intermediaries.
An NFT, or a non-fungible token, is a real or virtual good that can’t be replaced or substituted; since each minted NFT is attached to a cryptography based on an ERC blockchain (Ethereum Request for Comment).
Therefore, any NFT can also be registered and traded like the Ethereum cryptocurrency.
The possession of an NFT is unique and recorded on a blockchain using a digital wallet. This guarantees the traceability, transparency and authentication of the purchase or possession of each good.
Although it is a term that originated in science fiction in the 90s, the first traces of the Metaverse have been around for far longer.
The Metaverse is a network of continuously active virtual spaces in which numerous people can interact with each other and with the space itself.
The Metaverse can thus develop an economy, notably by allowing the exchange of virtual currencies and/or NFTs.
Lastly, the Metaverse can also become a society with fully digital modes of governance.
To access the experience, go to the sandbox.game website then click on the map to access the Edited Martell Land. You must have a TSB player account to be able to play the Martell experience.
Martell’s NFT collection represents the most iconic characters and objects of the Maison Martell since 1715.
