A total of 36,431 plots of land are set to be unlocked during the introductory phase for SHIB: The Metaverse while revealing portions of four different districts: Growth District, Defense District, Technology District and Currencies District. In general, SHIB: The Metaverse will consist of 100,595 plots of land.
This first phase is perhaps one of the greatest factors—namely, the determination of land value based on its location.
As previously covered by U.Today, the first stage of the land sale in SHIB: The Metaverse, which refers to the bid event, might soon take off. The bid event is expected to last for three days, or 72 hours, from inception and is the earliest access to some plots of land. Ahead of the three-day event, participants are expected to lock their LEASH or their Shiboshi NFTs, while all bids will be made using Ethereum.
The second and third stages refer to the holder event and public sale for those who could not get early access. The holder event is expected to last for seven days and begin immediately after the bid event ends.
The last stage of the public sale is slated to happen after the first two stages, and participants will be able to purchase the remaining available lands on the map, at a fixed price, and without needing to lock any SHIB ecosystem assets.
