Being one of the early and best NFT projects, Decentraland should own historic NFTs like CryptoPunks.
Some advantages of buying such NFTs.
-
Tourist Hub: Showcasing historic NFTs in Decentraland will increase visitors and can help Decentraland in becoming a virtual tourist hub.
-
Diversification of DAO funds: CryptoPunks NFTs value is steadily rising and as liquid as cryptocurrencies. So investing in such assets increases the DAO fund stability. It is equivalent to buying GOLD.
-
Free Advertising: Since VISA acquired one of the CryptoPunks there is a lot of attention towards NFTs especially CryptoPunks. This could help in grabbing more media attention and private investor which would accelerate the growth of Decentraland.
-
It is inevitable that metaverses(or private investors inside metaverse) start buying these NFTs to showcase them for their visitors. It is better to be first than play catchup in acquiring these assets.
