Animoca Brands and its subsidiary, TSB Gaming, said that The Sandbox blockchain-based gaming world is gaining momentum with its marketplace where players can buy or sell user-generated game items and virtual land based on nonfungible tokens (NFTs).

The Sandbox Marketplace debuted last week. It’s a place where folks could use their $SAND game currency to purchase a wide range of NFTs created by a variety of artists. The first phase of the beta shop includes just over 100 NFTs from 46 artists, and the company will be adding more gradually, before opening the marketplace to everyone.
