REALM is a defunct mobile-first NFT metaverse and world-building project that closed operations after attempts at new investment, restructuring, and a potential buyout all failed. REALM's Twitter Score is 22 out of 1000 as of July 2026, ranking #49,475 (top 10%) among 531,432 tracked accounts.
REALM was co-founded by Matthew Larby as CEO, Joban Thomas as CPO, and Milan Gruner as CTO. The project described itself as a community-driven, open-source platform for building personalized metaverses that combined music, art, and games, with spaces mintable as ERC-1155 tokens. Its closure was attributed to a liability under one of its agreements that could not be resolved despite multiple recovery efforts.
REALM closed its first investment round at $2.25M, led by Alphabit, with additional backing from NGC, Genesis Block Ventures, LD Capital, Moonrock, SL2, Marshland Capital, and Constellation. The $REALM utility token launched through Launchpool Labs and Polkastarter and was available on both Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain, trading on Uniswap and PancakeSwap respectively. REALM also partnered with Ferrum Network on a limited liquidity-staking pool and with NFTrade for four rounds of metaverse-land sales that gave staking $REALM holders early purchase access.
REALM published more than 100 development logs and launched racing competitions, quest lines, and digital collectibles before shutting down. The account has 54,205 followers as of July 2026 and has published 2,109 posts. REALM has been mentioned by 74 accounts a total of 300 times.
