Virtual Property Sold For Half Million Profit

Club Neverdie, a virtual property in Entropia Universe, a massively multiplayer online gaming platform designed by Swedish developer MindArk with a real cash economy, has been sold for USD 650000.

In the recent $635,000 sale, Jacobs sold off his virtual property in chunks. The largest portion went to another avatar by the name of John Foma Kalun, who paid $335,000. This single transaction may be the largest virtual transaction ever, supplanting the previous record set by Erik “Buzz” Lightyear, another Entropia resident who bought The Crystal Palace Space Station for $330,000 in 2009.
