It\u2019s the concept we\u2019ve seen hundreds of times in science fiction films and books.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s what Crypto House is trying to achieve one day. But before they can start building entire cities, they need to start off small.<\/p>\n<p>The first step in their long-term plan is Skylum \u2013 the world\u2019s first virtual skyscraper. Crypto Houses\u2019 MetaReal project \u2013 a concept defining when a virtual building has a real-life counterpart \u2013 represents the first step to a truly MetaCity.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"skylum landing\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2_zVldhtp_0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"h-owning-an-apartment-in-skylum\">Owning an Apartment in Skylum<\/h2>\n<p>The units in the skyscraper will be fully customizable and designed to fit each owner\u2019s exact needs and interests. As<a href=\"https:\/\/uk.linkedin.com\/in\/tomas-nascisonis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Tomas Nascisonis<\/a>, CEO at Crypto House Capital, described, these units can be anything: home, office space, meet-up spot, or a dedicated gaming arena.<\/p>\n<p>The point here is to give each owner a personalized experience and make them feel like they really do own a piece of the Metaverse.<\/p>\n<p>So who\u2019s mostly interested in buying a virtual apartment? Metaverse investors? NFT owners? Gamers? You\u2019d be surprised. According to Nascisonis, people with little to no interest in the Metaverse are buying units, which drives the demand.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-how-can-you-buy-a-skylum-unit\">How Can You Buy a Skylum Unit?<\/h2>\n<p>The pre-sale of Skylum apartments has recently started. The firm currently offers 50 units at discounts of up to 70%. To own, all you need to do is get in touch with the Crypto House and put up a deposit.<\/p>\n<p>If you buy an apartment or a penthouse in Skylum, you\u2019ll also get access to two of the most popular Metaverses. The Sandbox and Decetraland. There, you can make further virtual real estate investments, and sell, or rent your property.<\/p>\n<p>And how much do you need to pay to own this piece of Metaverse real estate? MetaReal apartments are selling for 10 ETH, which amounts to roughly $13,000 at the time of this writing. Once the pre-sale is over, the price could go significantly higher.<\/p>\n<p>So, you should not miss this opportunity if you have the funds and a vision for what your MetaReal could look like.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-laying-the-foundation-for-a-new-reality\">Laying the Foundation for a New Reality<\/h2>\n<p>MetaCities, MetaReal projects \u2013 that\u2019s where the future of digital real estate lies. And Crypto House Capital is leading the way.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to their Skylum project, investors and gamers alike will be able to travel back and forth between the two realities \u2013 the physical and the virtual.<\/p>\n<p>Laying community and economic foundations for this new reality is a big step for Crypto House.
