🧿 The Mysterious “Soulbound” Token – Etheria Tiles (2015)

🗺 Overview:

Name: Etheria (or Etheria Tiles)

Year: 2015

Creator: Cyrus Adkisson

Blockchain: Ethereum (launched just months after Ethereum’s mainnet!)

Supply: 457 “tiles”

Style: Minecraft-like virtual world map

✨ The Mystery:

For six years, no one noticed it. In 2021, someone suddenly shouted, “I found it!”—and the rush began.

🔮 Why is it mystical?

Etheria is considered the world’s first attempt at an on-chain metaverse.

Players could buy, sell, and build on tiles across the map—fully secured on the blockchain.

But back in 2015, Ethereum was too new. Almost nobody cared about Etheria, most of the tiles went unsold, and the project was forgotten.

💥 The Great Awakening – 2021

In March 2021, a Twitter user rediscovered Etheria.

Within hours, all the untouched tiles from the past six years were sold out.

Some tiles sold for as high as 100 ETH—worth over $180,000 at the time.
