People's Daily Comments on Yuan universe real estate speculation: the risk of scalding should be prevented

2021-12-10

Recently, the top ten buzzwords of 2021 were released, "Yuan universe" was among them. The so-called meta universe is regarded by some people as the carrier of the integration of the virtual world and the real world, hiding opportunities for game, social and other scene changes. Recently, the "real estate fever" has also scraped into the meta universe. This "Yuan universe real estate speculation" fever first appeared abroad, accompanied by the fire of the concept of Yuan universe. On November 23 this year, a piece of digital land in the US virtual platform decentraland sold for us $2.43 million, which is higher than the average house price in Manhattan, New York; On November 30, a piece of virtual land on the sandbox, an American virtual game platform, sold for $4.3 million; Some artists also participated. Some singers invested US $123000 to buy virtual land. It is indeed a new thing and new field to use real-world funds to buy land in the virtual world and form a real and operable market. In China, virtual real estate has also attracted many people to rob and hoard houses. A game platform has issued 350000 sets of virtual houses and graded the houses to represent the degree of scarcity. After starting with the so-called "rare real estate", some players put them on the second-hand trading platform for sale, and the price is even as high as more than 900000 yuan. Buy land, buy houses, buy materials, engage in decoration, appreciate, and then sell... The process of virtual real estate trading is roughly the same as that of real-life real estate trading, except for different spaces and scenes. However, whether it is speculation or investment, whether it is a bubble or a draught, a speculation or a trend, we still need to ask a big question mark. (source network) New things are bound to bring all kinds of new understanding. People have different views on how to define the nature, predict the trend and treat the trend of "Yuan universe real estate speculation". Some people regard it as an opportunity and think it is the "wealth password" of the future; Some people feel magic, "the physical body has no place to repose, they began to build houses in spirit"; Some people participate in speculation, "if it can rise to millions, sell it"; Some people regard it as hype to "create a sensational communication effect to attract investors"; Some people are full of expectations that this kind of real estate has the attributes of transaction and circulation and has room for appreciation; Some people can't help but worry that it may hide a scam of "beating drums and passing flowers"... All these views are like a prism, which is not enough to present the whole picture. It may take a while for the bullet to fly, and in a longer period of time, it can be observed more clearly and understood more deeply. At present, the meta universe and its related application scenarios are still in the initial stage of development. This is the basic premise for analysis and discussion around relevant topics. In particular, as an industrial meta universe, although there are infinite possibilities, there are many uncertainties. Whether it is enriching the concept or expanding, developing the industry or market investment, it is still an exploration attempt based on technology, conception and demand. This is a gradual development process, from virtual to real, from seeing to touching, and there is still a long distance. You might as well think calmly and carefully to prevent the risk of heat to scald. New things must be accompanied by new risks. At present, "Yuan universe real estate speculation" is often based on NFT (non homogeneous token). In this sense, there is a suspicion of "real estate speculation" and "currency speculation" in virtual real estate transactions. Some experts pointed out that there are compliance risks in the NFT investment market, such as the compliance risk of the trading platform, whether the issuer constitutes the compliance risk of issuing currency, and whether the purchaser has liquidity risk when reselling. The associated "Yuan universe real estate speculation" also has the tendency of product financialization, sharp rise and fall, speculation fraud, illegal fund-raising, gambling and money laundering. More importantly, the legal nature, transaction mode, supervision subject and supervision mode of NFT in China are not clear; Some other forms of virtual asset transactions are not supported by law in China and many other countries. In fact, the value growth of any innovative product should be established in a safe market environment and normal financial order. Only when we are aware of and guard against potential risks can we help guide the healthy development of the industry. Therefore, the advanced development of new things should neither be boundless nor disorderly, nor be inclusive or conniving. Supervision should be encouraged to take the lead in innovation. Participating in the "Yuan universe real estate speculation", is it a wealth opportunity or a cut leek? At present, there are many virtual world products known as the meta universe. As long as any company has a recession, the virtual products purchased by investors will lose their money. Such lessons can be found everywhere in the history of game prop trading. "Yuan universe real estate speculation" is Alibaba's cave or Pandora's box. We might as well wait and see. However, it should be sober to think that in virtual space, anchoring speculation in making quick money may be a burst of "bubble". In the final analysis, the maturity of new concepts and their industries still needs to be built brick by brick. Only with the development of technology, the support of reality, the constraints of rules, the cohesion of consensus and the progress of ideas can we really go steady and far. (Xinhua News Agency)
