Fertile LAND: Pricing non-fungible tokens

Dowling, Michael orcid logoORCID: 0000-0002-3539-8843 (2021) Fertile LAND: Pricing non-fungible tokens. Finance Research Letters, 44 . ISSN 1544-6123

Abstract
The current popularity of non-fungible token (NFT) markets is one of the most notable public successes of blockchain technology. NFTs are blockchain-traded rights to any digital asset; including images, videos, music, even the parts of virtual worlds. As a first study of NFT pricing, we explore the pricing of parcels of virtual real estate in the largest blockchain virtual world, Decentraland; an NFT simply termed LAND. We show a LAND price series characterised by both inefficiency and a steady rise in value.
