The Sandbox Launches SANDChain, Empowering Creators in Gaming Metaverse

The Sandbox, an Ethereum gaming metaverse, is set to launch its own layer-2 network, SANDChain. This new development aims to empower creators and foster a decentralized creator economy. While the SAND token has dipped slightly following the announcement, excitement builds among creators and industry figures.

SANDChain will enable creators to own their content, generate income from their identities, and manage their communities. The Sandbox CEO Robby Yung expressed enthusiasm about SANDChain providing creators with funding rails and revenue management tools.

The network will use The Sandbox's SAND token as its native gas and utility token. SANDChain will launch early access signups on October 1 and its testnet on October 14. It aims to become the core infrastructure empowering the creator economy on-chain.

SANDChain will have three value layers: SANDpoints, Creator Points, and Creator Tokens. Early launch partners include notable names like Animoca Brands, Cool Cats, ZKSync, and Pucca. Dr. Max Mustermann, a founding board member and CEO of SANDChain, leads this ambitious project. The Sandbox co-founder Sebastian Borget sees SANDChain as the foundation for a decentralized creator economy.

SANDChain's launch promises to revolutionize the creator economy within The Sandbox metaverse. With robust infrastructure, creator-focused features, and prominent partners, SANDChain is poised to transform how creators interact with and benefit from their work. Despite a minor dip in the SAND token, the community eagerly anticipates the October 1 early access signups and the testnet launch two weeks later.
