What happened to the "meta-universe speculation" and "rainbow universe virtual real estate" that were once out of the circle?
Recently, the Red Star Capital Bureau found that the once-hot "meta-universe speculation fever" is quietly cooling down, and the players who have actively entered the "rainbow universe speculation" have appeared in the situation of "quilt cover", and many players are selling at a loss.
Someone sold the Rainbow Universe virtual property at a loss
In October 2021, the listed company Tianxiaxiu (600566. SH)'s first meta-universe product, "Rainbow Universe", went online for internal testing. The 3D virtual social networking product known as blockchain technology, Rainbow Universe, has played the slogan of "the first suite of the meta-universe", and the virtual house of the rainbow universe is actively traded in the second-hand market, and the listing price is as high as millions of yuan.
From some public reports, we can glimpse the heat of the virtual real estate of the rainbow universe. According to the People's Daily News, on December 6, 2021, on the idle fish platform, a seller hung up the rainbow universe virtual property at a price of 20,001 yuan, and the highest bid was 198,890 yuan.

According to the Financial Associated Press, a property with an original price of 88 yuan on the rainbow universe became 100,000 yuan after the first inquiry on the idle fish; after several times to refresh the idle fish trading page, it became 180,000, and even after this extent, there were 13 people who "wanted". According to the Securities Times, at its peak, the top virtual land SS-level islands in the rainbow universe were hung up to 1 million yuan on the idle fish APP, and the transaction price was more than 100,000 yuan.
What is the current status of the hot rainbow universe virtual real estate? On February 24, Red Star Capital Bureau searched for keywords such as rainbow universe and virtual real estate on the Idle Fish APP, but did not display the content, and it is suspected that such keywords have been blocked. On another "transfer" APP on the second-hand trading platform, Red Star Capital Bureau found that some players were selling the rainbow universe virtual property at a loss.
"I bought $1,000 at the time, and now I sell it for $500," one player said. Red Star Capital Bureau found that the player sold "Rainbow Universe Elevator Room Digital Collection 8 Stars", marked with the words "C Balcony Building", and the creator and publisher are "HONNVERSE".
The player also said that if you want to buy this virtual property, you need to sell it with the Rainbow Universe account, "the platform stipulates the time of ownership, and it will take more than half a year to transfer." He also said to the Red Star Capital Bureau: "There are other digital collections in the account, which can be sold to you together." It is worth mentioning that the release date of this transaction is December 17, 2021, and it has not yet been sold.
In addition, another player is selling "S-class polar wooden house" for 1500 yuan, and the product introduction writes the words "Rainbow Universe Wooden House Real Estate Is Sold Cheaply". The release time is also in mid-December 2021, and no transaction has been successful so far. At the end of last year, the People's Daily reported that the virtual house of the rainbow universe is divided into 13 types of rooms, the circulation and scarcity of each room type are different, and the level of the house is divided into SSS, SS, S, A, B, C level, the higher the level, the rarer. Previously, on the "Idle Fish" platform, there were SS-class houses with a transaction price of more than 20,000 yuan.
The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission issued the first "meta-universe" regulatory directive
It is worth noting that the popularity of the keyword "rainbow universe" in the Baidu index has declined from December 13, 2021, and since January 2022, there have always been only a few hundred hot spots. In addition, many once active "Rainbow Universe" QQ exchange groups are now full of various types of advertising information, and there is little discussion about the virtual real estate of the Rainbow Universe, and the virtual real estate of the Rainbow Universe has been "extinguished".
Red Star Capital Bureau noted that after Rainbow Universe opened the reservation, the stock price of Tianxiaxiu rose from 8.28 yuan / share at the opening of the market on October 21 to 15.31 yuan / share at the close of November 19, an increase of 85.58%. However, since January this year, the stock price of Tianxiaxiu has begun to fall continuously, and as of the close of trading on February 24, it was reported at 9.04 yuan per share, with a total market value of 16.34 billion yuan, and the stock price almost fell back to before Rainbow Universe opened the appointment.
At the same time, market supervision is also continuing to strengthen. On February 18, the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission (CBIRC) issued an announcement on the risk of preventing illegal fund-raising in the name of "Meta-Universe". Market analysis pointed out that this is the first domestic regulatory directive for the metacosm.
The announcement pointed out that recently some lawbreakers have rubbed hot spots, absorbed funds in the name of "meta-universe investment projects" and "meta-universe chain tourism", and are suspected of illegal fund-raising, fraud and other illegal and criminal activities, including fabricating false meta-universe investment projects; defrauding under the banner of meta-universe blockchain games; maliciously speculating on meta-universe real estate circles; and engaging in meta-universe virtual currency illegal profits in disguise. "Malicious speculation meta-universe real estate circle money" was clearly written into the announcement.
On February 21, the Meta-Universe Industry Committee of the China Mobile Communications Federation issued the Meta-Universe Industry Self-Discipline Convention, proposing that the meta-universe business should be based on serving the real economy and resolutely resist the use of the meta-universe hotspot concept for capital speculation. At present, there are 300052. SZ), Tianxia Show, Blue Cursor (300058. SZ), Yuan Long Yatu (002878. SZ), Tom Cat (300459. SZ) and 21 other listed companies have joined the China Mobile Union Universe Industry Committee and will jointly abide by the self-discipline convention.
