LDA Capital is enthusiastic about REALM’s improvements to virtual games and worlds.

REALM is accelerating a whole new economy.

Global metaverse market to reach $1.5t by 2029

Experts predict the global metaverse market will grow rapidly in the near future. Its value of $100 billion in 2022 is expected to reach $1.5 trillion by 2029, equivalent to a growth rate of 47.6% in this period.

REALM is a major player against the backdrop of high industry growth, transforming the way people display and personalize NFTs and bringing a new way of monetizing and customizing the space, representing a revolution in the user experience.
