I don't find any real usability for this Metaverse: actually I think it will only make people and society dumber and closer to the Idiocracy movie. Spending time online wearing some stupid glasses it's a no no for me. Also the NFTs are a waste of time and money, I wouldn't buy useless digital shoes and buildings. I love BTC and have diamond hands but these 2 things I'm not a fan of and I know I will never be. Society needs to become wiser not dumber. Living in a digital realm sucks, I'm a human being not a stupid machine. Rant over.
I am not a fan either but that is where we are headed, and in fact this is nothing new, Second Life has existed for almost two decades and it has very similar concepts to the metaverse and NFT, in which people had a virtual life and could buy and sell virtual property.
In a nutshell they are the very same thing with the difference this time around the experience it seems is going to be way more immersive, and since I think this is something people will actually want there is now way to stop it, even if we do not like it.
