I just put some money into early phase of a project that LOOKS like crypto, but technically isnt, so not the same hacks/risks/maybe regulation, etc. Also much more private so not problem people rushing in. Now I think how normal are these? The project sells ownership "shares" in a virtual economy (very like metaverse) and when the economy is stable these shares can be traded like tokens/crypto. Theres more but I am not smart enough to explain. But this seems EXACTLY like crypto to me, but it is not officially crypto. Like trading gold from WoW back when it gave good X.
Does anyone know other good projects that is "backdoor" crypto like this?
