Decentraland could be filled with so much content that tourists just _have_ to come back, because it would simply not be possible to visit it all in one day. And _that_ is what the DAO Community should be capitalizing upon. [https://decentraland.org/whitepaper.pdf?page=2](https://decentraland.org/whitepaper.pdf?page=2) > Decentraland is a virtual reality platform powered by the Ethereum blockchain. Users can create, experience, and monetize content and applications. [https://decentraland.org/whitepaper2.pdf?page=5](https://decentraland.org/whitepaper2.pdf?page=5) > Decentraland’s thriving creator-led economy sees the constant trade of community-made Wearables and Emotes. [https://decentraland.org/whitepaper2.pdf?page=20](https://decentraland.org/whitepaper2.pdf?page=20) > [In Decentraland], people have the opportunity to earn a real income. > “Being in [Decentraland] has really allowed me to find a potential within myself that I didn’t realize was there. > Here, you can really make and create those opportunities for yourself if you’re willing to put in the work.” [https://decentraland.org/whitepaper2.pdf?page=29](https://decentraland.org/whitepaper2.pdf?page=29) > Content Types and Monetization > In Decentraland, creators can develop a diverse range of content, from simple scenes on virtual LAND parcels to complex games and interactive experiences using dedicated creator tools. Wearables and Emotes, although designed using external tools like Blender, also play a key role in Decentraland’s creator economy, being sold directly through the Marketplace. This content contributes significantly to the platform’s monetization ecosystem. This is the heart of the project at hand. This is what to improve upon in order to make the project grow. Decentraland is giving us a new chance at [the American Dream](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/american-dream.asp), by providing a new landscape in which one can make a dignified income. Those of us with the entrepreneurial spirit are seeing the vision of the living which can be made here. Stores can be built for selling NFTs as souvenirs, some rare and unique… Speed-ups and extra-rides can be sold in scenes building attraction-park kind of experiences… VIP tickets can be sold to the rich tourists who _crave_ premium services such as the entry to an exclusive floor in a live-performance. These are means of income which are very common in the “Real World”… And the _social experience_ is so very real, that the same kind of business model is quite possible in Great Grand Country of Decentraland. ---

Might you be able to elaborate on why you think so, perchance ? Tourism _is_ a profitable industry after all. If there is a crowd, statistically there _will_ be large enough a number of paying customers to one’s scene to make the effort of producing digital creations quite viable. ---

Bruh, I am a Problem-Solver Extraordinaire, C++ is but one of my _many_ skills. Feast your eyes on this 360VR sphere player having loaded a YouTube video, brought into existence around Genesis Plaza !
