The concept of the metaverse has been around for over three decades but ever since the tech CEOs like Satya Nadela and Mark Zuckerberg talked about it, the metaverse is the next future of the internet, it becomes the most trendy topic suddenly. Last year, Facebook's CEO rebranded it & announced it as Meta. Also stated that Facebook will be the biggest part of the metaverse.

Just imagine a virtual world where you can meet your friends like in real, play games like you are in that situation, shop like you are visiting that store- all the comforting things you are doing physically in the world. Metaverse will just give a smooth virtual experience so that you can connect with whatever you want from any corner of the globe.

Metaverse is the next evolution of the internet where with the help of advanced technologies like augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality, artificial intelligence & blockchain you can build online communities, play games, and conduct business meetings via a digital form or avatar of people.

What You Will be Able to Do in Metaverse?

Metaverse is not a new concept at all. It is already existing on several online video gaming platforms like Roblox, Fortnite & Minecraft. But the two tech giants Facebook & Microsoft are using the fullest potential & possibilities of the metaverse.

In the metaverse, people will in the future communicate via their individual avatars which will make them feel more present in real than in traditional video conferences. The ultimate goal of the metaverse is to bring people together in a virtual world. Through metaverse, users are able to do things like- virtual shopping, meetings, trips, leisure activities, real estate & many more. In the pandemic situation, we have come across one popular phenomenon “Work From Home”.

With the advanced technology of metaverse, people will be able to join in a virtual office instead of a physical office. According to Mark Zuckerberg, a lot of things are going to happen through teleport from one experience to another. In the metaverse world, people instead of viewing virtual content can actually be in that virtual world.

Metaverse According to Meta

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta said that “the best way to understand the metaverse is to experience it yourself, but it's a little tough because it doesn't fully exist yet." According to him, the metaverse is an immersive & embodied internet where users will be able to get almost everything anyone can imagine.

Now, the question is what would you require to enter metaverse? Well, you would most likely wear augmented reality glasses or virtual reality headsets. Meta CEO said, “When you play a game with your friends, you’ll feel like you’re right there together in a different world, not just on your computer by yourself.”

Many people said that, if you practically own cryptocurrency, virtual reality headsets, or non-fungible token (NFT) you are already a part of the metaverse world. In the metaverse, technologies like Web3, and blockchain have a huge impact on owning any digital identity. Blockchain solutions like NFTs can help to store & locate practical property or applications in metaverse space. It helps to secure transactions of digital assets & ensures consistency between various metaverse platforms. In near future, we are about to witness a return of the transactional business model.

While you are using social media channels, you have username or profile pictures to display your identity. But in metaverse space, you will be represented by a virtual figure or avatar which can speak in your tone, can move the body as you are moving your body parts & perform actions through headsets.

• Every single user will have their own virtual world where they can have properties & items during online sessions.

• Metaverse will allow users to sell & buy real state or virtual properties as they do with physical property. Buying or selling virtual properties will work through NFTs & cryptocurrencies. Users will use non-fungible tokens to purchase digital goods in a decentralized way. Now, two of the popular metaverse cryptocurrencies are- Decentraland (CRYPTO: MANA) and The Sandbox (CRYPTO: SAND), which can be used in their respective metaverse games

• As every user will have their single virtual world, metaverse will allow them to make their own virtual property or content.

• One of the biggest advantages of the metaverse is the telepresence via AR & VR. Most people can see this as the last stage of owning a metaverse. Through AR & VR, you are able to feel a sense of reality together with other avatars anywhere in the virtual world. As Meta CEO said, "It'll feel like you're right in the room together making eye contact, having a shared sense of space, and not just looking at a grid of faces on a screen,".

If I talk about the current implementation of the metaverse, I have to mention Facebook horizon, launched by Facebook which is actually a VR world. Alongside, organizations & tech companies are already started making use of metaverse to enhance work productivity.
