I love the digital dice, and can't wait to see how they are upgraded in the future to include things like Advantage or Disadvantage. And the new Thoros dice are really bad ass looking. That said, if I was to buy a cosmetic item here on DDB, which I'm not opposed to at all, I'd much rather buy a character sheet, or character icon image, as those are things other people can see, which is kind of the point of digital cosmetics: to show off to others.
This is just my partially educated guess, but the digital dice were and are a big push ahead of a VTT along with the combat and encounter trackers. DDB was never intended for a VTT, but now that none of us will likely ever leave our homes again they've had to switch gears.

Lightning Strike - A rebranded Fire Bolt for Wizards & Sorcerers.
Spirit Bomb - A holy fireball for Clerics, Paladins, & Divine Soul Sorcerers!
Sword Dancer - A Cleric subclass specifically for the Drow goddess Eilistraee.
The VTT is likely more than a year away, quite likely two or more, based on everything the Beyond team have said, and given the extremely slow rate of progress they've had on far less complex features, so it seems unlikely that the dice are really connected to that.
