Digital real estate refers to virtual land or properties within metaverse platforms or blockchain-based games that users can own and develop. These digital parcels are typically represented as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), granting verifiable ownership and scarcity on a blockchain. Owners can use this virtual land for various purposes, including building virtual structures, hosting events, or monetizing through advertising and rentals. Its value is often influenced by platform popularity, location within the virtual world, and utility.
Context

A key debate concerns the sustainability of its market growth and whether these assets represent genuine utility or merely digital collectibles. Future developments will likely involve enhanced interoperability between virtual worlds and the creation of more sophisticated economic models to support diverse digital property uses.
