Metaverse crypto coins are some of the most popular cryptocurrency categories, despite the seven-month-long bear market. There are dozens of Metaverse tokens available, and for someone new to the space, it might be challenging to figure out which ones to pick. Today we look at The Merkle’s pick of the top three Metaverse crypto coins with a market cap below $125 million to watch in July 2022.

Note: The list below is ordered by the market capitalization of each Metaverse token, lowest to highest.

3. Yield Guild Games (YGG) – $81 million

• Unit Price: $0.7037

Launched in December 2020, Yield Guild Games (YGG) is the leading Metaverse gaming guild, featuring a robust community of players focusing on helping each other earn more from popular play-to-earn, Metaverse, and NFT games like The Sandbox, Axie Infinity, Decentraland, etc.

Yield Guild Games includes a diverse portfolio of Metaverse games of all sizes, including Star Atlas, Illuvium, Splinterlands, and much more.

If you’re an avid crypto enthusiast and believe in the future of play-to-earn and Metaverse gaming, we recommend minting a YGG badge, which serves as your ticket to the gaming guild.

The good news is that the badge is free to mint. Users must only pay the gas fees associated with the minting transaction. At the time of writing, users can mint a badge for as low as $3, a relatively small investment compared to the benefits of receiving insider knowledge and joining a unique community of crypto enthusiasts and players.

The primary governance asset for the gaming guild is YGG, an ERC-20 token enabling users to vote on DAO proposals, claim rewards, and interact with various aspects of the Yield Guild Games ecosystem.

You can buy YGG on Crypto.com, Phemex, Gate.io, Binance, LBank, Gate.io, Uniswap, Kraken, etc.

2. Chromia (CHR) – $104 million

Launched in May 2019, Chromia (CHR) is a relatively new blockchain built explicitly for Metaverse and blockchain games. It’s a relational blockchain with a unique architecture perfect for dApps requiring high on-chain interaction and a significant amount of transactions.

Chromia enables developers to build dApps and Metaverse/NFT games much faster than traditional development platforms like Solidity, signaling the tremendous long-term potential for Chromia.

There are several games in development on the Chromia blockchain, and some have already launched on the mainnet, meaning that the blockchain has a proven track record of sustaining high-quality Metaverse/NFT games. Some of the most popular games on Chromia include Mines of Dalarnia (featured in our previous Metaverse tokens article
