Mark Cuban, the famous American billionaire and Shark Tank investor, has mocked the purchasing of land in the Metaverse as a “super, mega, immaculately dumb” idea. Participating in the Altcoin Daily podcast, the crypto enthusiast said that, while the metaverse may help facilitate the feeling of community, and has its place in growing the Web 3.0 space, people shouldn’t consider buying digital real estate in the metaverse.
Furthermore, Cuban insisted that using a traditional real estate model when looking at land in Metaverse is a “super dumb” idea.
