I've checked this out: https://decentraland.org/app and it's really funny even though very little is there to see yet. Will be really cool once people can actually go and meet there to explore and build

this way I can actually imagine how VR collaboration and fun will look like in the future. so what I see are a few sample parcels of land, and Greenpoint also is a place like this in the virtual world where we can meet up!

This is pretty cool. I've attached Decentraland's (optimistic?!) roadmap so we can estimate when Greenpoint will begin to become reality within VR. I would guess Q1-Q2 2018 is the time and 2018 is going to be a rocket year for VR+blockchain and 2019 probably is the time of entering the mainstream

Decentraland Roadmap
Stone Age
Land is modeled as a simple grid, and a Bitcoin-like proof-of-work algorithm is used to allocate pixels to users.

June 2015-
March 2017
Bronze Age
Land is modeled in a 3D space. Blockchain and torrent full node. World Editor. Unity Browser.

Mana Contribution Period
An ERC20 token, MANA, will allow users to claim parcels of LAND and interact with each other within Decentraland.

August 17 through August 26, 2017

Q4 2017
Terraform Event
The first opportunity to claim land will take place, along with the Beta launch of the Iron Age.

Q4 2017
Iron Age
Add multiplayer support with avatars and live chat. Allow custom items and scripting on the land you own.

2018
Silicon Age
A full-fledged 3D world, with full VR support and customization of the laws of physics. Live in the blockchain.

another new exciting eposide in cryptoland and it's superb to be around from the beginning

Yeah! Really excited about this "new episode in cryptoland" as you put it

2018/2019 VR will grow a lot
