If you are an active user of Decentraland, you can use MANA to buy digital assets such as land and wearables. You can also use your MANA to gain access to paid events, play games, and bet in casinos. If none of these is your thing, you can freely buy and sell MANA on numerous exchanges. The popularity of metaverses in 2021 and the rebranding of Facebook to Meta led to an explosion in the token price of many metaverse projects. Along with SAND, MANA was one of the beneficiaries of this hype, with many speculators profiting from the sudden price pump.
