TGV 4 Plus injectează 10 milioane de dolari pentru a deschide liderul NFT Metaverse „The Sandbox”

True Global Ventures 4 Plus venture fund, which first invested in the equity round in 2019, follows on with a Series B investment together with other prominent investors, led by SoftBank Vision Fund 2 to further push the NFT “Play-To-Earn” segment.

True Global Ventures 4 Plus (TGV 4 Plus) Fund, a Global Technology Equity fund headquartered in Singapore, has invested US$10m into Nisipul, O filială a Branduri Animoca and the leading open NFT metaverse platform.

TGV 4 Plus has contributed US$10m out of US$93M raised by The Sandbox on its Series B fundraising round led by SoftBank Vision Fund 2, representing the fund’s first investment in cryptocurrency assets.

The investment will enable The Sandbox team to scale its growth as a prime entertainment destination where brands, IPs, and celebrities can engage with their fans through virtual experiences, including games, live performances, and social experiences.

Other investors besides TGV 4 Plus in the round included Animoca Brands, Liberty City Ventures, Galaxy Interactive, Kingsway Capital, LG Technology Ventures, Polygon Studios, Samsung Next, and many more top investors. Wedbush Securities acted as exclusive placement agent and financial advisor for The Sandbox, and Rubicon Law provided legal counsel to The Sandbox.

Viziunea True Global Ventures asupra metaversului și viitorului platformelor de divertisment deschise este:

1. Mediile multi-metaverse alimentate de Blockchain și jetoane nefungibile (NFT) permit proprietatea digitală reală a activelor digitale care sprijină interoperabilitatea, standardele deschise și transparența.
2. Aceste metaverse vor avea noi tipuri de guvernanță distribuită, în care atât corporațiile mari, cât și comunitățile mai mici vor exista una lângă alta în mod mai echitabil. Multe dintre aceste comunități vor fi deținute de comunitățile și creatorii înșiși.
3. Inovațiile din acest spațiu vor conduce la adoptarea Web 3.0 și vor aduce aceste tehnologii către mase pentru o schimbare pozitivă.
4. Credem că lumile virtuale pozitive, de exemplu, deschise, transparente, durabile, vor avea un impact pozitiv asupra lumii reale.

TGV 4 Plus Fund first invested in The Sandbox in early 2019 mainly because of the Team, led by Co-Founders and Serial Entrepreneurs Arthur Madrid, CEO and Sebastien Borget, COO, and their Vision with The Sandbox.

Understanding more about what the Founders wanted to achieve, we realized that this Metaverse revolution could be more significant than the Internet and Mobile revolution.

Au avut succes în Pixowl Inc., care a creat originalul premiat The Sandbox, un joc metavers 2D cu peste 40 de milioane de jucători în total. Ca fond, TGV 4 Plus sprijină antreprenorii în serie și le-am recunoscut experiența de a construi și menține comunități și jocuri înfloritoare.

Their strategy is to bring in the top brands and creators with whom people would love to associate themselves. The pivotal point came in March 2020, when we witnessed $450,000 worth of virtual LAND NFTs being sold within 4 hours. From then on, many of the LAND NFT sales sold for millions of dollars and were sold out within minutes or sometimes within seconds.

The Sandbox experienced tremendous growth in 2021, generating over $144 million in GMV to date, and over 500,000 users now have a connected portofel. Over 165 brands – including Snoop Dogg, The Walking Dead, The Smurfs, Care Bears, Atari, and CryptoKitties – have already formed IP partnerships to create voxelized versions of their worlds and characters in the metaverse.

High-profile LAND owners in The Sandbox include Zed Run, Republic Realm, Binance, Bored Ape Yacht Club, CyberKongz, CoinMarketCap, Metakovan, Pranksy, GrowYourBase, MetaKey, South China Morning Post, Zepeto, Socios, the Winklevoss twins, Bill Lee of Craft Ventures and more.

TGV ne-a cumpărat TERENUL în martie 2020, deoarece dorim să construim un loc pentru aprovizionarea cu oferte virtuale și să atragem talente de top. Credem că vor exista mult mai multe cazuri de utilizare inovatoare în The Sandbox și alte Metaverse decât știm astăzi.

With the recognition of the growth of Metaverses and new use cases, TGV4 Plus continues to invest in talented serial entrepreneurs through more equity funding rounds with globally ambitious blockchain start-ups. The fund is dedicated to blockchain companies, primarily in late-stage Series B and C across four verticals: Entertainment, infrastructure, financial services, data analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI).

The typical size of each investment ranges from US$3 million to US$10 million, together with entrepreneurs, business angels, family offices, and institutional investors, many with co-investment rights in future equity rounds.

Start-ups can reach out via LinkedIn or through the fund’s contact pagină.
