CoinWire: Most Investors and Users Believe in Metaverses

According to a CoinWire survey conducted last December, the majority of investors in the cryptocurrency industry believe that metverses will change the way people live.

According to the survey, metaverses will soon become an integral part of finance, business and education. About 10 000 investors and ordinary users participated in the survey. 

About 69% of respondents said that metaverses can offer a new approach to entertainment, 65% believe that virtual worlds will affect people's social lives. 

CoinWire analysts noted that over the pastfive years, Meta and Microsoft have registered a total of 158 patents related to metaverses. Experts believe that while the industry is at the stage of active development, not only virtual worlds are being created and improved, but also tools for interacting with them. As an example, experts cited gadgets presented at the recent Consumer Electronics Show 2023 that allow users to smell or touch virtual objects.

The study authors noted that the United States ranks first in innovation in this area, while China and India rank first in positive attitudes and daily use of metaverses.

Organizers of the Game Developers ConferenceGame Developer Conference published a report according to which representatives of the gaming industry still do not see the prospects of metaverses and shy away from working with blockchain.
