If the idea of dropping thousands of dollars to “own” a plot of “land” in the Decentraland metaverse doesn’t do it for you, have I got news for you: Decentraland has just introduced official support to allow its users to become a part of the rentier class. Exciting!In case you were wondering, I checked, and yes. Someone has already come up with the concept of metaverse mortgages.Personally, I’m excited to see other horrific parts of the system of homeownership get recreated virtually. Metaverse homeowners associations. Metaverse building permit red tape. Metaverse NIMBYs. Metaverse property liens. Metaverse neighborhood watch.
