The meta world is bigger than you think

“NFT” became the Collins Dictionary Word of the Year this year, but by 2021 other concepts from the tech world have entered memory.metagalaxia"(Metaverse).

Everyone talks about the "meta universe". This is in part due to the macro elements Corona causes to digitize our lives, possibly because Facebook recently changed its name to Meta. Be the person most affected.

This topic has been discussed in detail elsewhere, but has also been mentioned in a few recent articles. However, I think this topic still lends itself to further study.

What is a meta-universe?

Defining the "meta-edge" is an impossible task from the start.

First of all, it's too early to predict what the meta world will look like and what it will mean to us after all, just like we predicted what Snapchat will look like after the iPhone's release.

To make matters worse, there is still a lot of semantic debate. Some people find it necessary to use "metaverse" (plural). This is because there are many different virtual experiences that can be accessed from many different sources. Some people don't use that word at all. Because the "meta universe" already has almost everything in the virtual world. Maybe the "meta-edge" itself will eventually change at some other point. Who knows!

Now it is important to have at least a clear definition of this concept. The best interpretation I can see is that of Matthew Ball. He's an entrepreneur and his article on the metaverse is a must read. Although he admits that he can't describe the Metaverse at all, he defines the Metaverse as follows:

“The existence of confidentiality allows users not to restrict users from constantly synchronizing and accessing personal, personal data, policies and procedures, communications and payments, and the like. "

A lot can be identified from these terms, but some stand out:The meta-world is in 3D,Open to people almost unrestricted with some kind of extension like in real life.

For some, it will remind you of the virtual game "Second Life" (photo below), MMORPG (online multi-role game) which has been popular since the beginning of the year of the 21st century. While this comparison is true for some, it is only a visual representation of what a meta-world would look like. In reality,The Meta Universe Builder design space will be very large and will eventually be driven by our users..

So who created the meta world? Until now, they were divided into two dormitories.Not crtpto. andCrypto Yuan space In addition, in recent years, to compare it to each other.

Because the connection between the meta-world and virtual reality has a long history, what we call the "meta-universe" has changed a lot.VR. It has been designed for many years. For example,VR gourmandandAlt VR SpaceIt has always been the most popular VR action and social platform. The use of virtual events became popular very early on, not least due to the new Crown virus (COVID).

Two big tech companies this year - Facebook (now renamed)meta) and Microsoft (Microsoft) has made a major contribution to the future of the Global Meta and includes the Global Meta directly into our contingency plans.

For Microsoft, CEO Satya Nadella said in May this year that the new Azure suite will be "Enterprise Meta Edge“As part of it, he says:

“As the virtual world integrates with the real world, the digital twin meta-universes, analog environment and mixed reality have become the first platform. With meta-universes, Azure, Digital Twins., Azure You can use IoT to model your home or office and customize your digital twin in real time. Synapse can track your digital twin's history and predict their future condition through intuitive discovery. Azure allows you to further enhance your learning experience. "Experts to measure and interact with digital binoculars using weak / zero mathematical solutions. Mesh and Hololens ensure a partnership over time."

It's not as exciting as going to a virtual reality rock concert, but the idea of ​​these companies is how the meta-universe (virtual reality) started to solve real problems in World:Landbage area (telepresence) 和cooperation is far away(distant joints) problems.

Of course, Facebook changed its name to Meta later this year and launched the Horizon Workroom product for the virtual reality-based collaboration group. However, they seem to be more optimistic than just financially savvy (around $ 10 billion is invested annually in research and development related to the various meta-worlds), but also from the point of view. At least in Zuckerberg's public statement, he seems to "understand" why cooperation and openness are so important. Because he thinks this is a new opportunity for the industry and asks to go in this direction. About Zuckerberg's old words:

We are working to help develop a variety of technologies and platforms to achieve this goal. There are a variety of material. VR glasses, AR glasses, input electromyography (EMG) systems, and more. Then there are the platforms around marketers and developers, and of course there are the social platforms. But there will also be other competitors who will develop these products. But I hope there are some open models to make these products more interactive.

It goes without saying. We're just waiting to see what Meta does. After all, we don't expect them to create the meta-world we want them to be, as they always enjoy the top performers and zero-sum competition from tech companies like Web2. But I won't jump too early at the end.

Cryptofield has a different meta world.The fundamentals of segregation, mistrust, anonymity and community belonging run deep from the start..

The first design uses blockchain technologyvirtual realitySuch as Sandbox, Decentraland, and Cryptovoxels. Although they all have many different internal and external industries,Blockchain technology and the power of NFTstake the real onedigital landowners, opening up new activities, from leasing land to building housing for others.

A lot of work has started in the blockchain-based virtual world of buyers wanting to leave the metamonde country to the next generation, but some interesting uses are starting to appear as well. Decentraland, for example, offers events that users can attend and meet on a daily basis. You can see the full list of these events.

several at a timeblockchain gameHe also began to see himself as involved in the "meta universe" category. For exampleAxi InfiniThis is a classic "Play-to-Earn" game with lands available for purchase, game guilds that many players can join, and much more. GuildFi is a recent investment that aims to become a heirloom gaming platform for Metaverse rather than another scholarship platform.

Where are you going?

We still have a long way to go to achieve “values” in the meta-universe. To be honest, we're not that close yet.

Meta Universe is gone from the market.(for example, Microsoft, Meta)and the game(Exemple : Decentraland)start and gradually expand outward. I think,An open, decentralized community meta-world owner could slip in closed systems, research and surveillance., why since you think that Web3 will overtake Web2. But such a future has not been predicted.Must create!

In many ways, we are still in the early stages of this industry. Meta edge rulespersonal currency—— Let's talk about that. But the meta world also needs its own.Independent infrastructure group, AWS does not fall in the event of a crash. is also necessaryHow a team can collaborate easily, by sending a message to the project management tools. is also necessaryStandards for DFTs, because NFT will come back from "metaworld" and other sources.

In the future, we will have to do more in this new future.
