Now let’s see what the hike is all about

Why is Sandbox (SAND) price rallying?

Later that day, Sandbox announced that it will create a concert venue and a music theme park in its metaverse with Warner Music support. It is intended to help artists engage virtually with their fans and also generate real revenue streams.
Sandbox chief operations officer and co-founder, Sebastian Borget, told Cointelegraph:
“We’re shaping The Sandbox as a fun entertainment destination where creators, fans, and players can enjoy first-of-a-kind immersive experiences and be more closely connected to their favorite musical artists through NFTs.’’
This high-profile partnership will have a great impact on SAND takers in the future because the tokens will play a primary asset role in governance, staking, and exchange.
