With an exceptional trading volume and overall valuation, the Metaverse coins in this article are the current leaders in crypto. Let’s look at the top five highest traded Metaverse coins right now, with a great potential for 2022, ordered by 24-hour trading volume, lowest to highest.

5. Chromia (CHR) – $110 million

Launched in May 2019, Chromia is a platform for Metaverse projects that makes it easy to build decentralized applications in the real world. Featuring a unique architecture, Chromia plays well with Ethereum apps and enables developers to code applications significantly faster.

Multiple hyped-up games are built on Chromia, including My Neighbor Alice, a play-to-earn blockchain-based game with a market cap of $378 million. In addition, Chromia also features Mines of Dalarnia, which has a market cap of $260 million.

Currently, CHR is trading at $0.80, with a 24-hour volume of $110 million. Its market cap is $456 million, with a circulating supply of 567.3 million CHR.

4. MyNeighborAlice (ALICE) – $133 million

Scheduled to be released in 2022, My Neighbor Alice is a farm and builder game currently built on the Chromia blockchain. The game allows users to buy virtual islands and upgrade them with unique items, enabling players to monetize their island.

ALICE is the native ERC-20 token that’s built on the Ethereum blockchain. It enables holders to play, invest, stake, and be a part of the My Neighbor Alice ecosystem. The game will be launched in Spring 2022 and is currently one of the most hyped-up Metaverse coins and projects.

You can purchase ALICE on Binance, KuCoin, FTX, Poloniex, Crypto.com Exchange, and more.

3. Axie Infinity (AXS) – $184 million

Launched in March 2018, Axie Infinity is one of the most popular blockchain-based games, so popular in fact that the team behind the game built a whole blockchain specifically for the game. The blockchain is called Ronin and is a sidechain of Ethereum.

Axies are monsters with specific traits and can be upgraded or traded. Players can use their Axies to battle other players in an arena and earn rewards.

2022 is looking to be a massive year for Axie as the team will continue expanding vertical and horizontal development across critical pieces of infrastructure. According to their product pipeline, Battles V2, RON, and Land Gameplay will be released next year, which could quickly catapult AXS to new heights.

At writing, AXS is trading at $92.04, with a 24-hour volume of $184 million. Its market cap is a whopping $5.6 billion, with a circulating supply of 60.9 million tokens.

You can purchase AXS on most major exchanges, including Binance, Coinbase, FTX, KuCoin, Bitfinex, Gemini, Kraken, and more.

2. Decentraland (MANA) – $510 million

One of my personal favorites and a pioneer in 3D Metaverse projects is Decentraland, a 3D blockchain-based virtual platform enabling a multitude of experiences along with a way for users to purchase Land assets and monetize them.

Decentraland has been open to the public since February 2020 and is the longest-running 3D Metaverse project in crypto. The only other project that comes close to what Decentraland offers is The Sandbox.

Anyone can check out Decentraland by visiting their official website and connecting using MetaMask on Chrome. Make sure that your wallet is set on the Ethereum chain, and have fun exploring!

While Decentraland is already one of the highest-valued projects on the market, as more and more platforms are built on Decentraland, MANA can easily double or triple in price next year.

At writing, MANA is trading at $3.26 with a 24-hour trading volume of $518 million. Its market cap is $5.95 billion, with a circulating supply of 1.82 billion tokens.

You can purchase MANA on most major exchanges, including Binance, Coinbase, KuCoin, Kraken, FTX, Uniswap, and more.

1. The Sandbox (SAND) – $1.1 billion

As the second-highest valued Metaverse project on the market following Decentraland, there’s no doubt that The Sandbox has excellent potential for next year. With their Alpha season one completing successfully, the team is soon gearing up for a second Alpha season.

The Sandbox is an Ethereum-based 3D Metaverse, allowing users to buy plots of Land and monetize them. It offers a gamified experience that includes quests, games, and challenges to earn rewards. The Sandbox also features the SAND token, which is used as the native currency on the platform.

Since The Sandbox features a downloadable client, it has unbeatable quality compared to other Metaverse projects. The best way to describe The Sandbox’s world is a Minecraft and Fortnite hybrid.

Currently, SAND is trading at $5.82 with a 24-hour trading volume of $1.1 billion. Its market cap is $5.3 billion, with a circulating supply of 919 million tokens.

You can purchase SAND on most major exchanges, including Binance, KuCoin, FTX, Uniswap, Kraken, Bitstamp, and more.

As 2021 is coming to an end, 2022 will undoubtedly be a significant year for crypto Metaverse coins and games. WAX is a blockchain made specifically for crypto gaming, making it a perfect fit for most Metaverse coins. This article looks at the top five Metaverse coins on the WAX blockchain that have great potential in 2022, ordered by 30-day users, lowest to highest.

5. Xpansion (XPS) – 8.13k

Launching in July 2021, Xpansion is a decentralized strategy game set in the future featuring virtual worlds powered by NFTs. The game also features decentralized land asset management and land development, meaning the ecosystem is fully powered by its players as a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO).

Xpansion revolves around settling planets, accumulating resources, and building economic bases. Once players create their empires, they can raid rivals for their resources and defend their colonies against invasions.

The game also features the XPS token, the native cryptocurrency on their platform living on the Binance Smart Chain. Users can mint XPS via their Land NFTs and use the tokens to upgrade their settlements with resources to receive even more rewards. Users can also stake their XPS to other players’ Land to receive dividends from their pool.

At writing, XPS is trading at $0.053 with a 24-hour trading volume of $5k. Its market cap is $2.6 million, with a circulating supply of 50 million XPS.

4. BlockchainRPG (GOLD, HPPOT, SLIME, SHELL) – 16.34k

Launching in November 2021, as the name suggests, BlockchainRPG is a blockchain-based RPG game built on WAX. It features a digital item Metaverse set in the fictional lands of Aurum.

The game revolves around hunting monsters, collecting resources, crafting tools, and competing against others. BlockchainRPG is built on a play-to-earn model allowing users to trade, buy, and sell their items on the marketplace.

BlockchainRPG features a quad-token economy with different coins being used for various aspects of the game. Users can purchase each of the above coins on the Alcor exchange with WAX.

3. Prospectors (PGL) – 30k

Prospectors is an MMORPG blockchain-based game originally built on EOS but has since transitioned to WAX. The game revolves around starting a business and mining gold via various activities.

Users can build various assets, trade items, and resources on the marketplace, unite with other players to increase rewards, and earn PGL tokens with real-world value.

Prospectors is one of the longest-running games on this list, initially launching in 2019. The fact that the team has stuck with the project through thick and thin and even transitioned to a better blockchain shows that this game has real long-term potential.

If you’re looking for a new blockchain-based game to try out, I highly recommend Prospectors.

2. Farmers World (FWF, FWW, FWG) – 80k

Launched in August 2021, Farmers World is one of the largest communities of NFT games, with over 80k players on its platform in the past seven days alone. It’s the top farming game in crypto and the second-most popular blockchain-based game on the WAX blockchain.

It has one of the most popular NFT collections on AtomicHub, allowing users to purchase various items and buildings for farming.

Farmers World features a triple token economy with different tokens users for various activities. FWF is Farmers World Food, FWW is Farmers World Wood, and FWG is Farmers World Gold.

Along with mining GOLD and NFTs, users can breed animals like Chickens and expand their farms. If you’re looking for a high-quality NFT farming game, I highly recommend Farmers World.

1. Alien Worlds (TLM) – 1.43M

Launched in April 2021, Alien Worlds is the most popular game on the WAX blockchain, with over 1.43 million users in the past month.

Alien Worlds is a play-to-earn game allowing users to mine Trillium (TLM) with NFTs. Players are given a free shovel on sign-up and can start mining right away.

One unique aspect of the game is how users can purchase Land and charge others fees for mining. For those looking at buying Land, currently, the cheapest one on the market costs 19,000 WAX ($8,424).

TLM is currently trading at $0.2123, with a 24-hour volume of $78 million. Its market cap is $194 million, with a circulating supply of 914 million TLM.
