Traditional rendering technology makes it challenging to scale GPU rendering. There are limits to what can be done locally, and if you’ve ever tried editing a 4K UHD video, you know that even with the latest graphics cards, it takes hours to render a short segment.
That’s where the Render Network comes in. Using blockchain technology, RNDR can transform the power of GPU computing into a decentralized economy of connected 3D assets.
Some use cases for the Render Network include Media, Mixed Reality, Augmented Reality, Medical, Gaming, Virtual Reality, Metaverse, and more.

The native token on the platform is SAND, utilized as the primary utility asset and enabling users to access various in-game activities and VIP places.
As the main competitor to Decentraland, The Sandbox offers a slightly better quality Metaverse due to it featuring a desktop client vs. an in-browser experience like Decentraland. SAND is a must-watch in February 2022 as the team prepares for their second Alpha season
