Ethereum remains the most popular platform for dApps and Metaverse coins. As the pioneer in smart contracts and DeFi, Ethereum’s blockchain hosts some of the most prominent players in the Metaverse. This article looks at the top 5 Metaverse coins built on Ethereum’s blockchain, ordered by market cap, lowest to highest.
5. Alien Worlds (TLM) – $227 million
Alien Worlds features a decentralized Metaverse connected to Ethereum, WAX, and Binance Smart Chain. It’s currently one of the most popular blockchain-based NFT games on the market, reaching over 200k users last month.
Alien Worlds allows players to lease spacecraft and send them on missions to discover the Metaverse. As players embark on their 2055 adventure, they can come across Trillium. TLM incentivizes players to play the game as it has real-world value.
Players can travel to various planets, which are all separate Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). These DAOs receive daily Trillium through the smart contracts, and players can also receive a portion of the TLM if they are a part of that planet’s DAO.
