Facebook will create a virtual reality metauniverse

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg has publicly stated his ambitions to become the world's largest social media company.network into a metauniverse company. In the future, this move may affect the company's plans for the Diem stablecoin.

In an interview with The Verge, Zuckerberg stated that"A good concept for the development of the metaverse is not something that this or that company can build", but rather "a sense of interoperability and cross-platform portability."

The metaverse is explained as virtuala shared space created by the interpenetration of a virtually enhanced physical reality and a physically immutable virtual space, which includes the totality of all virtual worlds, augmented reality and the Internet.

«You have an avatar and your digital goods, andyou need the ability to teleport anywhere. You just don't want to be stuck within one company's infrastructure... I think for this thing to work really well, it needs to be highly portable and interconnected."

He added that he provides for the implementation of a "personalized Internet", which will not be managed centrally, but by a group of different participants, that is, in a decentralized way.

As reported by Business Insider, a spokesperson forFacebook confirmed that Zuckerberg "does not believe the metaverse is something the company can create on its own." Instead, the spokesperson noted that "it is a collaborative movement that needs to take into account the developer and author communities to be successful."

Metaverse proponents have long speculated aboutwhat role cryptocurrency, in-game currencies, blockchain technology, non-fungible tokens (NFT) and other digital tokens can play in the future development of the space.

And although regulators in different countries have already forcedFacebook and its partners in Diem (formerly Libra) abandon their global plans for stablecoin, the major social network is likely already considering a new opportunity as architects of the metaverse seek the dominant digital currency to use in their project.

In the Reddit section r / CryptoCurrency someusers doubted the idea, and one even joked that Facebook is rapidly losing relevance, as it is now mostly populated with "toxic boomers yelling at each other."

Another suggested that the meta-universe gamble would ultimately fail as "the next generation of the Internet will not revolve around Facebook."

But not everyone is skeptical. One Reddit user stated that Facebook has "the best developers in the world and the largest team on the planet working in virtual reality":

«They were so ahead of everyone that I didn'tI doubt that they will control the first major mainstream metaverse and, given their financial capabilities, enter into exclusive deals [with musicians and filmmakers]».

Meanwhile, the founder of the crypto exchange Evercoin and the general partner of Gumi Cryptos Capital Miko Matsumura urged the community to be careful.

In the comments, one positive-mindedThe crypto enthusiast noted that this move is certainly big news for the world of NFT, the Ethereum blockchain protocol that runs most NFTs, and for cryptocurrency in general.

But Matsumura told him that “there is no“ Metaverse I would like to deal with ”:

«One indivisible metaverseimplies a monopolist. We need a multiverse. One single metaverse is an obstacle to human freedom. We need alternative places where we can go if the “main” place turns out to be a scam.
