Burning the Gas Stations! Scarcity in Polka City

Prada is a luxury brand and some of their handbags cost more than a luxury house! The reason is scarcity and they burn any unsold bags rather than sell them at a discount. This is what we are doing to Polkacity assets, creating scarcity for you, the investor in our platform.

Any unsold Gas Stations and Van Taxis will burn on Sunday (4th April) at 11 PM UTC. This is a good opportunity to grab whatever is available before they are gone forever.

Previously, all unsold shopping centers and hotels were burnt and now they all show Sold Out. Asset prices were increased 10% after the burn event and this keeps happening bi-monthly, every 15 days.

All Hotels are sold out
All Shopping Malls are sold out

Similarly, the taxi drones that are cheap with high APY were all sold out quickly:

The platform has been moving towards 3D assets and these assets are limited, meaning there will be no more shopping centers or hotels, or gas stations, or Van Taxis created. This is the last chance to grab a gas station or a van taxi!

All unsold assets will burn, and it is likely that when the native marketplace opens, the asset prices will fluctuate closer to their burn times, which means that early investors will benefit from the burns further.

Burning the unsold assets and decreasing the asset types removes the choice overload, and keeps it simple for our investors. Polkacity will continue with asset burns and will work for the investors in the platform.

The team has been working hard, not only on the code but also on the economy of the platform to make it a functioning world. The platform will be a functioning game, and economy in virtual worlds is one of the most important aspects. Especially role-playing games have functioning real economies with merchants, guilds, auctions, houses, land, furniture, horses, pets, clothing, and all kinds of customization. The possibilities are limitless and Polkacity is here to listen to the community.
