2022-09-18 22:50:08 Metaverse will be a $13tn opportunity no business can afford to miss

Unless you are a gaming enthusiast, the virtual world may seem less relevant to your daily life, but that could change. Since Facebook became Meta Platforms Inc. in October 2021, the focus has turned toward the metaverse, a virtual reality that could become a $13 trillion economy by 2030, with enormous implications for businesses. The metaverse is expected to be worth $800 billion within two years. Therefore operating inside it could become nothing short of mandatory over the coming decade, with as much as 25 percent of the economy potentially residing in the virtual realm. For example, luxury powerhouse Gucci opened a “garden” on the Roblox gaming platform last year and released virtual bags that sold for more than $4,000 each.

Metaverse team of Shiba Inu spread the word about a new update in the building of the SHIB virtual space. Together with their partner THE THIRD FLOOR (TTF) studio, SHIB devs have revealed the first concept art of the Metaverse Rocket Pond. The Rocket Pond is another hub that will be located in the Metaverse. Hubs are pieces of virtual land that are of the highest value. For the crypto community, rockets symbolize an overflow of energy of a coin that it is able to fly to new horizons or its price can skyrocket, "go through the roof" or "to the moon," as crypto enthusiasts like to say. Therefore, rocket emojis are often used to visualize a price hike. Besides, the blog post says, "rockets are phallic, signifying exploration, discovery, a journey, science, and/or technology." This is what these early black and white sketches summarize for the SHIB army.

Starbucks is finally, officially entering the metaverse. On Monday, the Seattle-based coffee giant announced the creation of Starbucks Odyssey: a Web3 experience launching in late 2022 where Starbucks Rewards members can buy and trade collectible limited-edition NFTs to unlock new rewards benefits and complete interactive activities to earn the NFT digital badges known as “journey stamps.” Starbucks is following the recent metaverse trend of lowering the barrier to entry for those without crypto know-how: the Starbucks Odyssey experience will not require users to use an Oculus Quest 2 (or any other special equipment) and it can be entered through the Starbucks Rewards app. Users also don’t need to have a crypto wallet to purchase the collectible NFTs. According to Starbucks, the interactive games will encourage users to collect these digital badges.

MetaMundo has launched its second three-dimensional NFT, an ocean-adjacent villa, complete with an NFT gallery, meditation pavilions, and entertaining areas. The structure was designed by American architect and hybrid-creative Luis Fernandez to become an immersive space for meeting, playing, and relaxing. Architecture built for the metaverse seems to divide into two different approaches: taking full advantage of the lack of constraints, such as physics, to create a sculptural object that can be explored or reiterating familiar shapes and forms of architecture. According to architect Luis Fernandez, his approach is based not on the shape of the final object, but on functions that architecture can serve in the metaverse. For Luis Fernandez, one of the main uses of the metaverse will be meditation.
