Introducing Corners: A New Era of Internet Content Curation
The Sandbox ecosystem is expanding with the introduction of Corners, a novel Web3 platform now in an invite-only beta. This innovative platform empowers participants to "coin" and derive value from Internet content through curated collections.
Corners allows users to coin, curate, and share content from across the internet. Curators can gain value from their meticulously assembled collections of URLs sourced from all corners of the digital world.
The Sandbox and Animoca Brands are pleased to welcome Corners, a free-to-use curation platform, into their growing ecosystem. The current invite-only beta allows users to coin, create, and share collections of internet content. Interested individuals can join the waitlist at www.corners.market.
How Corners Works: Tokenizing Internet Content
Corners provides a unique mechanism for anyone to create a “Corner Coin.” This is a user-created, transferrable digital asset built upon a curated collection of internet links, conversations, and content. Once a Corner is established, other users can share and contribute to its curation, fostering its growth and value by adding links or new content.
Expanding The Sandbox Beyond Gaming
The launch of Corners signifies a significant expansion of The Sandbox’s ecosystem, moving beyond its gaming roots as outlined in The Sandbox 3.0 rollout. This development extends The Sandbox’s reach into broader cultural distribution networks and introduces new utility for the SAND token.
Robby Yung, CEO of The Sandbox, stated: “Corners is a great example of how partners can help extend the utility of the SAND token and support the continued evolution of The Sandbox ecosystem beyond gaming. By enabling curators to tokenize the content they love, Corners opens meaningful new opportunities for creativity and participation. We’re pleased to support products that build on our foundation and bring more communities into The Sandbox’s wider ecosystem.”
SAND Token Integration and Expansion
Corners deeply integrates the SAND token as its primary utility token, driving platform activity. Curators are rewarded for their engagement and curation efforts. Furthermore, a portion of the platform’s activity is allocated to reward Corner Coin holders with the SAND token, thereby promoting its distribution and usage within the ecosystem.
The SAND token will also be introduced to the Base network through an initial liquidity pool on Aerodrome. This strategic expansion will broaden the accessibility of the SAND token and The Sandbox ecosystem beyond Ethereum and Polygon. It aims to provide a new on-ramp for on-chain communities and streamline the movement of the SAND token across the broader crypto ecosystem.
Getting Started with Corners
In anticipation of the full public rollout scheduled for early 2026, Corners is releasing a comprehensive “How to build your corner” guide on www.corners.market. This guide offers detailed information on getting started, understanding market pricing, transferrable digital assets, and other essential aspects of the platform.
Early adopters eager to explore and create their own corners are encouraged to join the waitlist at www.corners.market.
About Corners
Corners pioneers a new paradigm for digital interaction on the Internet. On this platform, communities coalesce around curated collections of links, with each community evolving into a valued collection. These communities form around specific topics, ideas, or niches. Other users can then trade these markets, curate content, and contribute to the corner’s growth through comments and upvotes.
Corners is launched on Base, Coinbase’s layer 2 blockchain, with support from The Sandbox and powered by the SAND token.
