A daily financial lesson: the meta-universe

Metaverse is a virtual world that maps and interacts with the real world and a digital living space with a new social system, which is linked and created by means of science and technology.

The popular definition is a virtual world built by a virtual network, but if you say so, many people may understand that it is similar to the game we usually play, but it is also a virtual world.

Of course not! And so far, there has not been a real meta-universe built, we see the Internet giants launched the so-called "meta-universe" is still an early version of the function of the game is not too bad, not the real meaning of the meta-universe. So what does the true metasverse look like?

First of all, before talking about the metasexes, I would like to make up some knowledge points for you: VR, AR, blockchain, NFT and decentralization. AR technology is augmented reality technology, in the real world to show the virtual scenery and VR technology is virtual reality technology, is in the virtual environment to show the real things. If VR is understood as a three-dimensional movie, then AR can be understood as watching a three-dimensional movie at home. For example, a whale appears on the basketball court, which is the use of AR technology. An NFT, called a non-homogeneous Token, is a unique identification number, just as there are no two identical leaves in the world, nor are there two identical NFT's in the world. For example, Curry spent a million dollars to buy a monkey's head in a short period of time, and many celebrities have also bought it. NFT is also the core of the metasurverse, just like our real life ID card, how do you prove who you are, or that the assets in the metasurverse belong to you: NFT. Decentralization means that the world is like bitcoin, which is not controlled by any one company or country. Everyone can create content in this world without limit. The one who creates more value will own more in this world. Blockchain is a kind of anti-counterfeiting technology, because it is decentralized, so in order to prevent others from counterfeiting, we need to use blockchain technology.

Put these basics together and you can build a parallel virtual world, called the metadverse. If you want to enter the meta-universe, you can use VR or AR technology to enter, and after entering, everyone has an NFT, just like your ID card, you are unique. And blockchain technology just happens to be able to link the real world with the meta-universe. If the two worlds are ever unified by digital currency, that means you can work in the meta-universe and earn money

And if the brain-computer interface works, it could even be possible to live forever in a metaverse. Even though your body is dead, you can upload your brain consciousness to the metasomes, theoretically achieving immortality within the metasomes. Of course, we're still a long way from a true metasurverse, and while all the big Internet companies are working on it, most of it is just to attract capital, introduce a new concept, and make the stock soar. It's still a long way from a true metasverse.
