Everyone is wrong about the Metaverse.

here's is 3 part theory..

Part I - Everyone is wrong

Most people think "the metaverse" is a virtual place.

Like in the movie Ready Player One.

A virtual world, like Minecraft, Roblox, or like Zuck showed in the facebook demo yesterday.

But what if it's not a place?

Part II - It's Not a Place, It's a Time

A time? wtf?

Yes, a moment in time.

You know in artificial intelligence, there's an idea of "the singularity"?

It's a moment in time where AI becomes smarter than humans. The moment when artificial intelligence > human intelligence

Part III - What it is

The metaverse is the moment in time where our digital life is worth more to us than our phsyical life.

This is not an overnight change. Or an invention by some steve jobs type.

It's a gradual change that's been happening for 20 yrs

Every important part of life is going digital.

Work --> from factories to laptops. boardrooms to zooms.

Friends --> from neighbors to followers. Where do you find like minded people? Twitter. Reddit. etc.

Games --> more kids play fortnite than basketball & football combined

Identity --> filters are the new makeup. Stories are your personal billboard to broadcast who you are.

What matters more. What you look like in real life? or what you look like on instagram?

The pic on the left is what they see, so it's what matters.

Everything goes digital. Your friends, your job, your identity.

And now with crypto, your assets are online too.

Bored Apes are the new Rolex.

Fortnite skins are the new skinny jeans.

If everyone hangs out online all the time, then your flexes need to be digital.

So if you play this forward another 10-20 years - we will cross into the metaverse

The moment in time where digital matters more to us than physical.

Our attention used to be 99% on our phsysical environment.

TVs dropped that to 85%
Computers down to 70%
Phones.. 50%

our attention has been sucked from physical to digital.

And where attention goes, energy flows.

If 50% of our attention is on our digital screen, then 50% of our energy will go to our digital life.

Today it takes some effort to take our phone out of pocket and look at it.

Soon, some company will make smart glasses that sit in front of our eyes all day.

We will go from 50% attention on screens to ~90%+

That's the moment in time when the metaverse starts.
Because at that moment, our virtual life will become more important than our real life.

Is this a good or a bad thing?

Like anything, it's neither good nor bad. It's just a thing.

A very different thing.

Astronomers unexpectedly find strange planetary system where day and night look exactly the same

Astronomers have uncovered strange new planet only 35 light year from earth where night and day looks exactly the same.

The exoplanet, called Coconuts-2b, is a gas giant six times the mass of Jupiter and is orbiting a low-mass red dwarf star over nine hundred billion kilometres from it - 6000 times more than the relatively short 151.87 million kilometres between the Earth and the Sun.

Its wide orbit, and the low temperature of its red dwarf star, means that daytime looks almost the same as its night in its skies, with the star appearing as a bright red light.

“With a massive planet on a super-wide-separation orbit, and with a very cool central star, Coconuts-2 represents a very different planetary system than our own solar system,” Zhang, who was aiming to find wide-separation companions around stars for his PhD thesis, said.

Coconuts-2b is the second-coldest exoplanet ever imaged at a temperature of only 160 degrees Celsius, and can only be detected using infrared light due to its low energy output. There is some residual heat from the planet that has been trapped since it was formed, but is still more than one million times weaker than that of our Sun.

“Directly detecting and studying the light from gas-giant planets around other stars is ordinarily very difficult, since the planets we find usually have small-separation orbits and thus are buried in the glare of their host star’s light,” said Michael Liu, Zhang’s thesis advisor.

“With its huge orbital separation, Coconuts-2b will be a great laboratory for studying the atmosphere and composition of a young gas-giant planet.”

"The solution to this is get vaccinated and this would not be happening," Fauci told ABC's "This Week" of rising COVID cases and new restrictions.

Blockchain is a system in which a record of transactions made in bitcoin or another cryptocurrency are maintained across several computers that are linked in a peer-to-peer network.

If the statement above is confusing to you, or you are not familiar with Blockchains, I think you should read my previous article here.

Blockchain is a new technology with “use cases” beyond Cryptocurrencies. This means that this technology can be applied in several fields of the world today. The internet changed the world over the last 20 years, introducing Social Media, E-Shopping. Online gaming and so much more.
Blockchain will do just that. Revolutionize technology, bringing never seen before features.

Trust less: The key principle of Blockchains involves several people making and validating transactions without the need to trust each other. You don’t need to trust or even know other computers on the blockchain. When we apply this to finance or business it is a game changer. The system inherently cannot be compromised with and as such cheating is not possible.

Transparency: Blockchain networks are usually very transparent. Everyone and anyone can see records if allowed. BSC Scan, Sola Scan, Ether Scan are examples of web applications that allow you view the transactions on the blockchain.
