We all know The Sandbox and Decentraland when it comes to the metaverse but there’s now a third player that has joined the conversation.

Wilder World is a fully decentralised 5D photorealistic metaverse being built on Unreal Engine 5. The project will be a community owned virtual nation with the first city being created as a 1-to-1 geographical replica of Miami which they have named Wiami.

Wiami has been developed with a futuristic vibe, reminiscent of 80s Miami, but with a CyberPunk flair and a touch of fantasy. If you have played the Blockbuster game GTA- Vice city (also based on Miami in the 80s)you should understand what they are going for.

Gaming will play a key part in this metaverse with Player vs Player (PvP) and Play to Earn (P2E) gaming. One of the first micro-games available in Wiami lets users put their skills to the test and street race Wilder Wheels vehicles around the city for NFT gains.

Property and land will be purchasable which opens up a plethora of opportunity to stake an early claim in the World.

The $WILD token is already on the market along with multiple NFT sets with future utility including the following:

· Wilder Wheels (cars),

· Wilder Crafts (flying vehicles),

· Kicks (wearable sneakers)

· Cribs.(apartments)

Some cribs have already sold as high as 39Eth! Here is the link for the Opensea collection

Can this metaverse seriously be built?

Wilder World was founded by 3D artist Frank Wilder has been in development for 7 years. With many projects claiming to be metaverses yet having been in development for much shorter times you can be confident this project is the real deal.

There should be no concerns this metaverse will be built on stock items purchased from digital asset stores as WW is being built by artists who will create originality with their work.

The world is being created by artists who are part of a Decentralised Autonomous Organisation (DAO) which in Frank Wilders words will ‘create a project more ambitious than any single artist could do on their own’.

Frank Wilder has been called the ‘Banksy of the blockchain’ and I highly recommend you check out the calibre of visuals this metaverse will have by checking out some of his insane personal 3D art here

Follow the smart money

One strong strategy in Crypto has always been to follow the smart money. There are several notable entities backing Wilder World which carry undeniable weight when investing.

· Digital Currency group (DCG) stand out from the crowd when viewing Wilder Worlds investors. Founded and led by Barry Silbert, DCG sits at the epicenter of the blockchain industry and counts one of its subsidiaries as Grayscale (the worlds largest digital assets manager). You can be assured the due diligence process carried out by an entity such as DCG is of the highest quality and can only instil much more confidence within an investor like yourself following them into a project.

· Animoca Brands the number 1 heavyweight investor in the space. If you track the projects they are partnered with you will clearly see a common theme of success.

· Jake Paul and Anti Fund was another masterstroke from the team. World famous You tuber and now boxer Jake Paul’s Anti Fund enterprise are invested in WW. He has already discussed plans to open a boxing gym in Wiami and racing his NFT Wheels in the street racing game. What else does Jake Paul bring to the table?…… a gateway to on ramp mass adoption to the Wilder World metaverse! Imagine the exposure Jake Paul can bring with his 10s of millions of followers on social media! Check out his interview with the Wilder team.

Bad tokenomics kill a project; good tokenomics can make one

The $WILD tokenomics are healthy, show a commitment to their investors and show commitment to the growth of the metaverse ecosystem.

1. The breakdown of token distribution shows no high anomalies to any one party.

2. 50.2% of the total token supply spread across areas focused on building the community and ecosystem:

· Artist incentives 6%,

· Community Building 10%,

· partners and ecosystem 10%

· reserve 24.2%

3. The token itself holds utility as the governance token, voting rights in the DAO, staking options and to be used in the Wild ecosystem for trade.

4. An Initial public sale raise of just $250k was a great early sign of the commitment to investors over greed for grabbing money

5. The low initial market cap of $900k (Private sale and public sale) gave great growth potential for the earliest investors. Wilder World clearly put their investors first here, great sign!

6. The vesting periods for investors are gradual and staggered

7. Etherscan shows there is no one wallet holding a dangerously excessive amount that you should be concerned about.

The projects that rise to the top are the ones with the strongest communities

Imagine the feeling of being directly connected to the founders and team of a project and with them truly valuing your input in the development and evolution of it. This is how the majority of Wilder community members feel if you ask them. These behaviours from the Wilder team have instilled a contagious confidence amongst the community which has turned the majority into long term holders and ambassadors.

A community built on long term holders and not short term flippers has been proven to be the best ingredient for the long term success of a project, you can see this in the growth of projects such as Illuvium and Star Atlas for example.

The Wilder team have demonstrated consistent engagement, communication and transparency. A couple of recent examples emphasis the true nature of the Wilder team:

1. During the minting of the 501 Wilder craft NFTs there were unfortunately some failed transactions with high gas fees. Within 24 hours the Wilder team had announced to the community they had created a compensation form for anyone affected to fill out. The people affected are now having compensation claims processed. In Q1 they aim to have a layer 2 solution in place for minting to prevent this happening again.

2. An Impromptu Discord AMA was carried out by the wilder team where they actively asked for the communities’ opinions and solutions on many topics. The team initiated this brainstorming session after a build up of differing opinions on strategies to complete the road map along with other short-term concerns within the community. The following day the Wilder team announced they were acting on the points discussed.

The current community has been grown completely organically with no marketing spend. As it stands now their twitter account has over 80k followers and the discord over 25k. A recent disclosure from the Wilder team is the plan to spend $2–3 million a month on marketing! No better time to join the community now before it explodes!

The most successful projects are led and driven by true visionaries

With over 100 people across 15 countries working on Wilder World you can be confident this metaverse has the means to deliver. Led by Frank Wilder a true OG creator in the space, co founders; n3o the architect, Hypno Wilder, Phoenix Wilder and marketing from Quantum Wilder all sharing the same vision.

Frank Wilder got into digital art in 2013 and minted his first NFT in 2017. Previous to the digital art he was a very successful in physical art with clients such as Justin Bieber and Kevin Durant. Frank Wilder has his own You tube channel to check out

Ex pro skateboarder turned artist Chad Knight recently left his position as Head of 3D design at Nike to join Wilder World. He has been creating some amazing wearables for the metaverse. Check out some of his work here

With such proven artistic talent and credibility amongst the creators of this metaverse, you can only imagine how visually spectacular this World has the potential to be.

How is the product shaping up

So what about the actual product? I would start by checking the following cinematic trailers

· Wilder World

· Wilder Wheels

· Wilder Cribs

· Wilder Crafts

· Wilder Wheels Tier C

The current reality of investing in these AAA projects is that some patience is needed before you can get your hands on gameplay loop footage and early access to the Alpha product.

It is still early in the project so there have only been small snippets of gameplay released at times. This is about to change with the imminent release of an Alpha version of the street racing element to selected community members. Stay tuned!

What you can check out is the AAA calibre of graphics on the NFTs currently on the market. I challenge you to find another metaverse project hitting the level of quality of these.

My thoughts as an investor

Investors in the current wave of crypto games and metaverses are putting in a lot of early trust before a minimum viable product is available for people to experience.

As a potential investor Wilder World currently sits in the above bracket. However, that said, every due diligence test myself as a researcher and investor have put it through, this project has passed with flying colours.

All roads point to the Wilder World Metaverse being the leading front runner in the 1st wave of photorealistic metaverses built on realism and not akin to the Sandbox model.
