For those who will maintain their macro crypto exposure, but must allocate amongst various coins, the coins that outperform will probably be Metaverse, Play-2-Earn, or NFT-related.

I'm wondering why metaverse is receiving so much hype, despite not having progressed past being a vaporware product.

This is one angle that comes to mind.

Elon Musk said Neuralink hopes to start implanting its brain chips in humans in 2022, later than he anticipated

Elon Musk has said that Neuralink, his brain-interface technology company, hopes to start implanting its microchips in human beings next year.

Neuralink, cofounded by Musk in 2016, is developing a chip that would be implanted in people's brains to simultaneously record and stimulate brain activity. It is intended to have medical applications such as treating serious spinal cord injuries and neurological disorders.

During a live-streamed interview at The Wall Street Journal CEO Council Summit on Monday, Musk was asked what Neuralink planned to do in 2022.

Musk said: "Neuralink's working well in monkeys and we're actually doing just a lot of testing and just confirming that it's very safe and reliable and the Neuralink device can be removed safely."

He added: "We hope to have this in our first humans — which will be people that have severe spinal cord injuries like tetraplegics, quadriplegics — next year, pending FDA approval."

There have not been many new developments in virtual reality.

Elon Musk's neuralink brain implant could someday progress to becoming a jack in point to the internet (or matrix). Which would coincide with a VR landscape. I'm wondering if the hype is related to neuralink developments. Or if there is another angle aside from basic finance that could fuel the hype.

Elon Musk's neuralink brain implant looks too dangerous already. The internet had already managed to control our behaviors. Evidence shows we are influenced by the adverts shown on our phones because the bots are listening to us as we speak. If we use that VR world with Elon Musk's neuralink brain implant, people will probably just lay down all thier life watching adverts while eyes all white.
