MANA - Can This Metaverse Crypto Reach $1?
One of the surprising stories of the crypto market so far in 2023 has been the comeback of metaverse tokens. In 2022, the top metaverse cryptos fell by 90% or more . This year, though, such tokens have been among the market's standout performers. In January, for example, Decentraland (CRYPTO: MANA) led the way with a sizzling 152% gain.
However, Decentraland, currently trading around $0.63, now faces a moment of truth. Its performance started to trail off in February, and it's down by 13.4% over the past 30 days. As a result, risk-seeking crypto investors might decide to look elsewhere -- such as to artificial intelligence-related tokens -- for upside potential. So does Decentraland have a realistic shot to break through the $1 threshold in 2023?
When weighing that question, it's important to differentiate between momentum and metrics. Momentum refers to investor sentiment, and is much more influenced by speculation, hype, and buzz. Metrics refer to real-world numbers and real-world performance. Yes, the metaverse might be a $1 trillion market opportunity in the future, but how much activity is actually happening within these virtual worlds today?
