Lords of the Lands

Lords of the Lands is an upcoming pfp/land collection (two separate collections produced under the same brand). The collection features an array of exciting features intended to allow full customisation and monetization of each Lords Land.
The doxxed founder and semi-doxxed team even have plans in place to share 25% of the collections royalties with holders.

Let’s take a closer look!

About the Collection

The project is highly ambitious and seeks to create it’s own metaverse with it’s own lands that will be fully customisable and monetizable. The collection goes a little further on the dynamics and allows holders to become “Landlords” if they collect and hold a Land NFT & Lord NFT in the same wallet. Landlords are entitled to a cool 25% of the Lords of the Lands creator royalties. Distribution of the 25% to holders is determined by the rarity of your Land NFT and the number of days you had both the Land & Lord in your wallet.

There will be a total of 3000 Land NFTs & 2000 Lord NFTs. First available in an initially small pre-sale round.

Lords also vary in rarity and come with a whole load of cool traits. Rarer Land Lords can claim rental income from more Lands. With the most standard Lords awarding 1 Land rental claim per month, and the rarest Lords having the ability to claim up to 3 rental incomes per month (please note Land must also be held to claim, no claim exists without Land).

Landlords will be invited to attend regular gaming tournaments where they can win prizes, such as rare NFTs and cash prizes up to $25K. Think of playing GTA V, or perhaps Minecraft and having the chance to win some fantastic prizes.

Each Land NFT comes with a special hidden treasure chest. What you will win depends on the rarity of your Land NFT. Treasure chests can contain a range of items including Land, Lord or other exciting collection NFT assets. The rarest find available is the Viron Vault which contains the projects upcoming advertising utility token, VIRON.

Further in the future the team also wishes to bring Play to Earn treasure hunts to their Metaverse (once built), live Music Festivals with renowned artists, and functional NFT museums with live virtual reality auctions.

Roadmap

The Road Map is far-reaching, going a year into the future. Rough dates are mentioned.

We can see that the Road Map actually goes about a year into the future, and it doesn’t seem like the Metaverse will be ready until roughly Q2-Q3 2023.

Conclusion

The project has some very clean avatars, the land looks good, but admittedly I’ve seen little variation. The utility on offer sounds good, almost too good to be true – you hear of a lot of projects that offer to share royalties, but never 25%. But to earn some of that you will need to hold both NFTs making a minimum collective presale investment of 0.35 ETH. Lords of the Lands has a decent following and seems to have some good momentum so far.
The negatives of the project are that it is another Metaverse project – a lot of builders are working in this space and there is not room for many victors. The project is also considerably far out. We don’t know the presale date just yet, plus the Metaverse itself appears to be in the works and around a year away. The team will need to maintain steady momentum.

Overall I like the project. We are still very early being before the first early presale round. I would ideally keep an eye on the project and watch to see what happens in later presale/sale rounds and gauge whether you’d like to buy in then.

As always, please do your own research. This report does not constitute financial advice.
