mana in less than 24h will be 600 satoshis

I know that there are many gaming Coins now and its so annoying that they make it sometimes so complicated in their whitepaper, but I think the raising coins will be MANA and ENJ. I am very sad about IOTA bought at 50c and sold on 2 $.. now its over 4 . You see how fast the train can be. Talk less and buy more   

Let's hope the Korean people start buying tonight then we fly, just like they did with IOTA

This video on youtube can help you guys all to understand:

I am in the fence of whether I should invest in this coin or not.  I see it as yet another virtual reality/GAME based token and I really dont see anything that has to do with gaming sky rocketing in price.

The OP says ".......get to live in the blockchain", for me it looks like the dev is trying or creating a virtual reality platform that will reside in a decentralized blockchain, as in using decentralization within a blockchain as its "servers" to store all the information regarding this "virtual reality", but here's a problem: blockchain technology is too slow for something that require real time input such as tasks being done under a virtual reality scenario, for example:  The Ethereum blockchain's confirmation time is 10 seconds more or less, so that's 10 seconds were the user of this "virtual reality" platform would have to wait for whatever they are going to get saved/effectuated.  Example:  I buy a house and I place it on the parcel, I click on the "done" button, now I have to wait for the neareast of the 10 second of the blockchain to "confirm" so that this new data can be seen and recognized on the decentralized blockchain and thus I can finally see the house up there on my virtual land, on a virtual reality game being hosted on a normal dedicated web server my house would appear on my screen and be fully ready to be used and configurable the minute I press "done" (or whatever the button gets named by the dev).  

While 10 seconds might not seem like too much of a time, it is still a drawback compared to being hosted on dedicated servers.

Other problems I see:
  * Ping Response would be terrible.  On a normal dedicated server you can get ping responses as fast as 8 ms depending how far you are from the dedicated server and if you are physically located on the same country where the dedicated server is located, some large VR company compensate by using CDN's located on all over the world to ensure a speedy ping response whether you are in China or in the USA, but using BlockChain tech such as Ethereum where you not only have to wait 10 seconds to "commit" to the blockchain whatever it is you are doing, but you might have to put up with very slow ping response time:  So the "experience" would be sluggish or can be compensated by using "anticipation" techniques that involves downloading from the blockchain as much data from neighboring fields as possible so if you try to walk to these fields next to your house, etc the data is already downloaded thus "smoothing things out".

So, that's the problem that I see with anything such as apps, games, etc based on the blockchain tech, that you have to wait until the blockchain's next confirmation time to happen before the new info gets committed onto the blockchain.

--OR-- Maybe I am not understanding how this will work, that's why I need clarification in regards to this, because if I am right with my estimations here then I dont see a future with a high price valuation not only for this tokens that tries to do something similar to this/these categories (VR/Games, etc) imagine a casino entirely hosted on blockchain, you spin up the roulette wheel, and then you have to wait another 10 seconds to see where the ball landed, or better yet, you spin the roulette wheel and then you have to wait 10 seconds so that the network can acknowledge that you did initiated the wheel spin and then another 10 seconds to find out on what number the ball landed on the wheel, a total of 20 seconds, well not exactly 20 seconds depending how many seconds had elapsed since the last block was confirmed, lets say 7 seconds had elapsed and then you spin the wheel, the network would get the acknowledgement 3 seconds later and 10 seconds later you would get a number, that would still be 13 seconds to wait.

Well anyways that's the point, if a blockchain solutions (VR or not) would take this long to having to wait for the next network's confirmation to occur before the user's data/request is seen or commited on the network, then the solution would never take off the ground outside us, the technological enthusiast, it would never get adopted by mainstream users for real world applications/solutions with the only exception for mission critical applications where speed is not really that important, such as banking, etc.

* I have never invested in anything that talks about games/VR in the blockchain because of my understanding on how I think this will end up "working" when the product is finally finished.  If for any reasons I happen to be wrong with my assumptions how this VR solution would work and I get convinced that the user experience would be from acceptable to excellent then I might reconsider and buy a handful of these tokens on the exchanges.  Remember, if the dev can convince the mainstream user to take part on this VR solution and they really like it, and its fast enough for their liking, then the value of the token should rise, but if they dont like what they are seeing, if it ends up being a painstakingly slow/sluggish experience then the value of this token would not rise, thus "investing" would be pointless.

 i just follow the potential and development of the project. I am sure this project will successfull in the virtual reality industry!

can you imagine what will happened if big companies also get involve to claim land that they will use for their advertising purpose ?

Dont cry when this coin is going up, when they got a contract like IOTA they will raise up and for me this coin got a big potential to get a contract

and who knows why thier road map does not show anything after event of 15 December? will it be finished afterward? thanks

why dump men? the event is even not happened

I can see this coin @2200 sats after December 15

Come and join official decentraland telegram chat: https://t.me/dcl_market

tomorrow it will be 600

I think one of the news is :

Terraform Event
The first opportunity to claim land will take place, along with the Beta launch of the Iron Age.(Q4 2017)
 - Registration will remain open through December, when the auction will take place.
Welcome to the Terraform Registration
Register until December 15th, 8 pm GMT
Commit MANA to the Genesis City Auction, or contribute LAND to Community Districts.

Look at google, fb etc, aren't they become a huge huge company because of advertising ?

Read this :

The future landscape of the Internet of Things will be largely occupied by virtual reality and augmented reality products and services.

do you see about this VR business ?

It doesnt dump, just correction

I'm just curious about the project why did it pump? ...I'm thinking of buying in now... is there some news affiliated with the influx of price?

It is not because of the project. All altcoins made -20-40% in price down cuz of BTC growth. Eveyrone buying BTC + 2 forks are incoming.
So be patient and hodl.

P.S. I have full bags and i lost a lot of money tonight. So just do NOT sell low (u do not loose until u sell - remember).

One of the biggest project of 2018. I don't know why people take the pumps and dumps seriously. This is a product which integrates virtual reality with blockchain, it's ICO already done, it's editor is public and it's auction of lands is just going to start on December 2017. It has got everything to be successful. Don't follow the crowd, just follow the potential and development of the project. I am sure this project will creates big waves in the virtual reality industry!

Ye, but why would anyone even want to enter a virtual reality world full of advertising?
Theres enough of this in the real world.

and as I said expect a dump.
