As the idea of “the metaverse” grows in popularity, projects selling land in their own metaverse grows more popular too. But is this really a good long-term strategy?
In this episode, Carly sits down with Lars Doucet, the Co-Founder of Level Up Labs, a consulting firm focused on blockchain gaming.
Lars is a digital land expert who has studied what happens when you sell “land-like assets” in virtual worlds. (Hint: digital economy land recessions). He explains why selling land can be a losing strategy, the situations in which it does work, and how some of these high-profile projects who have already started selling land (**cough cough Otherside, cough cough Axie Infinity**) can do from here to prevent the worst from happening.
Digital land is one of, if not THE hot topic of NFTs as of late and it’s important we all understand it a little better.

In a massive week for Bored Ape Yacht Club studio Yuga Labs, they acquired CryptoPunks & Meebits from Larva Labs, as well as releasing their community token $APE. With ApeCoin and a massive inflow of intellectual property, the NFT space is spinning with buzz and speculation about what this all means.
Today, we have Zeneca_33, Andy8052, and Scott Lewis joining State of the Nation to get to the bottom of this monumental event. What does this mean for Punks and Apes? What about intellectual property, ownership, and value? And lastly, are we seeing the dawn of a new age of digital monopolies?
In this chaotic landscape, a rational and steady approach to understanding is always a winner.
