A metaverse economy?
A more fundamental question for the metaverse is:
What’s valuable in the metaverse?
with following key questions:
Is it just a video game, or what we now know as video games?
Is it just a MMO?
Fundamentally, those technologies on their own now are no longer valuable.
It is not 1985, and the Super Mario metaverse has already been created.
It’s not the 2000s; WoW and RuneScape are already done.
Then what is valuable now that can be added to upper realms?
Crypto.
True crypto right now, not in its distilled, tightly controlled forms, is still seen as dangerous and no big gaming or technology studio would dare to use it.
Computers and AI now bridge information across space. A spatial network.
Although crypto is bridge across time. The temporal network.
The true possibilities of crypto are still to be unlocked through abstract upper realms, through the metaverse.
