The Sandbox is a decentralized gaming ecosystem. It initially launched as a Web2 gaming platform over a decade ago, but it later pivoted to Web3. It’s built on Ethereum and allows users to purchase digital real estate called LAND where they can create experiences and share them with other users. It’s powered by the SAND token and supports blockchain features such as NFTs.

The addition of the meme coins the platform’s belief that “the culture of creativity is a cornerstone of the open metaverse and takes time to engage in and help grow the Web3 ecosystem to benefit those who are a part of it.”

The Sandbox’s purchase of the meme coins sparked speculation that it intends to launch new features that will utilize them, bringing meme coins into the metaverse.
The platform remains tight-lipped on its plans, merely describing the purchases as “our commitment to staying on top of industry trends and Web3 culture.”
However, it hinted at grand plans in the future, stating:
<blockquote>
 The varied landscape represented by the six memecoins above exemplifies our dedication to fostering inclusivity and unity within our platform’s community. As we move forward, we plan to use our memecoin collection to launch engaging initiatives that create additional utility for both our users within The Sandbox and the broader memecoin community.
