MANA/EUR - Decentraland/Euro

Decentraland is a blockchain-based virtual world where users can buy, sell, and develop digital land. It uses the MANA cryptocurrency for transactions. Users can create interactive experiences, games, and applications on their parcels of land. The platform is decentralised, meaning there is no central authority controlling the content, and decisions are made through a governance system by landowners.

Decentraland is unique because it combines virtual reality with blockchain technology, allowing users to own their digital assets. It offers a space where creativity and the digital economy intertwine, enabling personalised experiences and the possibility to monetise content. Additionally, its decentralised governance model allows users to participate in decisions about the platform's future.

Decentraland does not have a single owner; it is a decentralised project managed by the community. It was created by Ari Meilich and Esteban Ordano in 2015, but control of the virtual world is distributed among users who own land and participate in governance. Important decisions are made by landowners through a voting system, ensuring that everyone has a voice in the platform's development.
