What is a MOONLAND?

Find out what a Moonland is in JericVerse.

A MOONLAND is a digital piece of real-estate in JericVerse. We work hard to make a 1:1 accurate depiction of the Moon surface. Players buy MOONLAND to own them, build on them or rent them out. It is also used for mining CREE Minerals in the game. You can open your MOONLAND to the public, or keep it private to yourself or to VIPs only. You can populate it with Homes, furnitures, ITEMs, Themeparks & Pets.

Only 30,003 of MOONLANDs will be available at launch. (~7.7% of total supply).

Each MOONLAND is a unique, non-fungible token (NFT) on the blockchain. With the Moon having 37.94 million square kilometers surface area, we created a total of 391,630 MOONLANDs of 2.2x2.2km that are collectible (≈5% of Moon). The remaining 95% are still accessible and also accurately mapped against the Moon 1:1.

Multiple MOONLANDs can be combined to form MOONTOWNs. Multiple TOWNs, owned by more than two persons, can be combined to form a CITY (or MOONCITIES in plural).

All MOONLANDs are 100% accurately mapped against the real Moon. All areas of the Moon are accessible, but only 5% of the entire Moon is collectible. (391,630 MOONLANDs of 2.2x2.2km each)

🌕 Lunar Illumination & Visibility: What’s Lit? What’s Hidden?

1. The Moon Always Shows the Same Face to Earth

  • The Moon is tidally locked, meaning:

    • One hemisphere always faces Earth“near side” we call "Frontlands" (10% of these Frontlands are known as MOONLANDs)

    • The other side is never visible from Earth“far side” or “dark side” (though not always dark) we call "Shadowlands"

☀️ 2. But “Dark Side” Doesn’t Mean No Sunlight

  • Both the near side and far side get sunlight during the Moon’s 29.5-day rotation cycle

  • So “dark side” = hidden from Earth, not literally dark

  • But you can still use the far side as mysterious, wild, or restricted area
