The MetaPets price increased sharply after it launched on 22 November, as investors buy into the virtual customised pets world.

The cryptocurrency is a utility coin for the virtual customised pets’ metaverse. The network is supported by the Binance Smart Chain. The project is at its early stage. There is relatively little information on the technology supporting the network and its development plan.

The tokens were listed on many networks, including CoinMarketCap and Coingecko, on 22 November.

According to its creator, MetaPets tokens have a supply of 100 quadrillion. But, there’s no data on the coin’s circulating supply and market cap. According to cryptoassets price-tracking website CoinMarketCap.com, the fully diluted market cap for the coin is estimated at $8.79m.

MetaPets’ prices spiked to $2.275 on 29 November, before moving lower. The price was $8.8 on 15 December, nearly 14.5 times above its launch price.

Data on CoinMarketCap showed trading volume in the last 24 hours at $1.32m, as on 15 December.

Amid the growing interest in the metaverse following social networking site Facebook’s rebranding to Meta and its commitment to creating a virtual reality world, a flurry of projects with similar themes were launched, including MetaPets.

If you’re interested in the metaverse, read on for the MetaPets coin analysis, the latest MetaPets’ news and analysts’ MetaPets crypto price predictions.

What is MetaPets?

MetaPets is an early-stage cryptocurrency project. It has not demonstrated its vision through deliverables. The crypto has yet to publish a whitepaper, which is an important indicator of the project’s technical feasibility. Instead, it has published a LitePaper, which listed its vision for MetaPets as the first digital platform where you can customise your virtual pets in the metaverse.

“Metapets aims to be a first step in bringing love and companionship to the metaverse in a personalised way, allowing users to become owners of pets of their design,” it says.

MetaPets plans to make its platform interoperable with other metaverses, but the LitePaper did not give details on the implementation. In addition, the creator plans to monetise services in this pet metaverse to create revenue for users.

“Metapets aims to make your MetaPet adaptable to the virtual designs of the metaverse. Interoperable into other worlds, you can show your dog off in a dog show, have your prize cow produce milk to sell, and race your trophy-winning horse in a competition, all while earning a passive income from your MetaPets Investment,” it says.
“Your pet from MetaPets could be pulled into a training camp, a dog park, or any other type of game someone wants to build on different worlds in the metaverse without necessarily needing permission.”

The absence of a MetaPets whitepaper with technical details means that it’s unclear which protocols (proof of work or proof of stake) support the utility coin and its governance.

According to the MetaPets website, wallets for the utility coin are “locked on PinkSale & DxSale”, crypto service launchpad providers that offer a suite of tools to help developers create their own tokens and token sales. This suggests that Metapets is using PinkSale and DxSale to develop Metapets tokens.

Dee Norris is the Shanghai-based company’s CEO, according to his profile on LinkedIn, which did not share his previous experience in other projects or positions.

The website has also said the project has “partnerships with the best developing companies to help fulfil [its] roadmap and plans”, but does not specify the developers’ identities.

Metapets future plan

As part of the project, Metapets plans to launch a list of games, non-fungible art (NFTs) and applications. The company’s twitter feed said: “Games & NFT’s Dropping soon.” it did not specify a timeline or roadmap for any deliveries. 

According to the LitePaper, the list of planned utilities are:

3) Apps

4) Metaverse (The Final Stage)

The final stage of the project includes virtual reality (VR) games, integration with famous metaverse platforms, MetaPets VR headset and Metapets’ custom metaverse, “where only pet owners can play, meet, breed their pets, and have fun.”

To reward the MetaPets’ community, the company is planning a PrizeFund wallet, “which will collect taxes on every buy and sell in token volume to reward our NFT MetaPet owners when they participate in a collaborative contest for big cash prizes”.

Due to the early stages of the development, MetaPets will only be sharing “its vision along the way within [its] social media circles”.

“Shhh… it’s a secret for now! But we will launch telegram riddles, quests, and mini-games to help you understand more. We can’t give up all the good stuff just yet!” Metapets said.

Early-stage project, high risk investment

Due to the early stage of the project, with the token only launched in late November, MetaPets has no deliverables to-date.

As a result, the project has a low safety score of 3.18 on cryptocurrency research and data site isthiscoinascam.com. The research data on the site showed that there was a lot of missing information on MetaPets, including its project team, which suggests that the MetaPets coin could be highly speculative. 

The site also listed other important indicators for cryptocurrency projects, such as its financial statistics, leadership of the project, experience of the development team, whitepaper, activity on the source code repository and community sentiment in social media.

According to Crypto technical analysis provider ZeCryptoMood, the trading signal of Metapets is “bullish” and prices are expected to reach $0.000000001551 in the coming days.

The difference between trading assets and CFDs
The main difference between CFD trading and trading assets, such as commodities and stocks, is that you don’t own the underlying asset when you trade on a CFD.
You can still benefit if the market moves in your favour, or make a loss if it moves against you. However, with traditional trading you enter a contract to exchange the legal ownership of the individual shares or the commodities for money, and you own this until you sell it again.
CFDs are leveraged products, which means that you only need to deposit a percentage of the full value of the CFD trade in order to open a position. But with traditional trading, you buy the assets for the full amount. In the UK, there is no stamp duty on CFD trading, but there is when you buy stocks, for example.
CFDs attract overnight costs to hold the trades (unless you use 1-1 leverage), which makes them more suited to short-term trading opportunities. Stocks and commodities are more normally bought and held for longer. You might also pay a broker commission or fees when buying and selling assets direct and you’d need somewhere to store them safely.
