What is Decentraland (MANA)?

MANA is the currency of Decentraland, a virtual world where the map is split into LAND parcels that people own as NFTs. MANA itself is a plain ERC-20 token on Ethereum: it is what you pay with when buying a parcel, an estate, a wearable for your avatar or a unique NAME on the Decentraland marketplace, and it is also what gives you voting weight in the Decentraland DAO, alongside LAND and NAMES.

The part that matters for holding it: MANA lives on two networks. The original token sits on Ethereum, and a bridged copy exists on Polygon, which Decentraland pushed most of its day-to-day activity onto because minting and trading wearables on Ethereum was too expensive. Moving MANA between the two goes through the Polygon bridge. Fees follow the network: ETH pays for transfers on Ethereum, POL pays on Polygon. A holder with MANA on Polygon and no POL cannot move it until they top up the gas coin.

Two more things worth knowing. LAND is not MANA - it is a separate NFT contract, so owning a parcel does not show up as a MANA balance anywhere. And MANA is only a payment and governance token; it does not stake, rebase or accrue anything on its own, so the balance you see is the balance you have.

In Tangem, Ethereum MANA and Polygon MANA show up as two independent lines, and the app shows the network and the address on the send screen, so you check which line a transfer leaves from before the card signs. The same address serves both chains, so a mixup is still yours to avoid by looking at the line you picked. Because the token stays put between marketplace purchases and DAO votes, a card that only comes out when you actually sign is a comfortable way to keep it.
