Corporate marketing is a trillion dollar industry for a reason. They will make it real in people's minds and those people will buy that because they are convinced they need it.

We are pretty much living those lives now. Social media, gaming, reality shows, crypto currency etc. Concepts that would have been laughed at 30 years ago are a part of reality now. Metaverse will probably be no different. To me the concept of living in a matrix might sound ridiculous but to a young person who didn’t grow up playing stickball with a broom stick outdoors after school it might be heaven.
This point is very true, and I always think about what I'm missing with regards to the metaverse because I also fail to understand how someone will want to live their entire life in a virtual world. (please at least lets all agree that food has to be real! LOL)
But this also makes me think of a recent Jeff Booth video I saw where he talks about how technology should lead to a deflationary world since technology will be able to provide so much stuff for next to nothing. In this fashion, maybe young kids can spend their whole lives doing nothing and simply live off the system. But the point he makes is the current debt based system doesn't allow for deflation. So you have technology, which should be deflationary, at odds with the current inflationary system. How it all plays out is anyone's guess, but his key points certainly do seem to be playing out.
Second life I remember was supposed to be the biggest movement in history when it was coming about, as you can see it was nothing but a few headlines here and there and then completely forgotten about by the masses.
They need to keep the asset bubble going so they are now creating hype behind another asset class, NFTs . You believe this garbage hype, fine by me, go spend your money on an this bubble NFTs and try your best to sell it to the next dumb fool, it's called fear of missing out and that's why this fad has taken over the last year.
Exactly. The metaverse is just a last ditch effort for FB to make people forget about the Facebook Files.
There is no "fear of missing out" by me since I am an NFT producer. NFTs are already a big hit, not just by me but by millions of new age investors. There's money in it, so get over it.
Again long as you can afford to miss the money it's worth a punt. Going full APE into it is where people get burnt.
No matter how stupid I think some new trend is I have to remember the adage "a real trader will make a market on anything." I don't care if it's Non-fungible snail shit, point me to an exchange and I'll bring a bucket.
