The project SandBox seems more promising. For me, ApeCoin is just an attempt to capitalize on the dying NFT Bored Ape hype. When viewed from the perspective of development, SandBox is much better. In contrast to ApeCoin, it is a serious project.
That's really why Apecoin has been made, there's still the hype for BAYC when it was made and that has generated a lot of money to the developers of it.
There could be benefits and use cases for the owners and holders of it but I just don't want to buy into the hype. Sandbox and Apecoin are into Metaverse but the attention there is decreasing.
While I also see the development for sandbox if it's only between these two as choices, I'll go for sandbox.
Developers are quite smart about it though, I mean if you were given money like this, would you say no? The problem is not with the developers, if they make this and people give their money to them, then it would be stupid not to do it, this is not a scam or stealing anyone’s money, they are legit made some shitcoin and people still bought it, they didn't promise anything more.
On the other hand, it’s the issue with the investors, it’s them who are making a mistake by buying it and if they keep doing it then they have nobody else to blame than them, it’s just not a proper token and it should not be considered a good investment, and yet there are people who go with the trends.
