Decentraland is free for users to explore investments or purchases required. Decentraland features hundreds of places users can visit and several experiences like the games and Casinos making it the most popular platform for users integrated with the latest crypto trends such as Play-to-earn, Defi, GameFi, and NFTs.

Why the price of MANA jumped 11% today

The current Decentraland (MANA) price surge is highly attributed to the announcement made by Samsung yesterday (on Valentine’s Day) concerning their event in their sustainability Forest in Decentraland.

According to the announcement, users with quest budge can trade it for the valentine wearable.

To get the quest budge and trade it for wearables, users must, however, collect five boxes that are scattered across Samsung’s plot of land to receive a badge which they will later bring to the NPC.

Decentraland’s partnerships with big companies like Samsung are no doubt starting to boost the MANA and LAND coin prices.
