what is the essence of the metaverse
Mr. Crane said that the economy has just
Don’t feel that the Metaverse is out of reach, in fact, one foot of yours is already in the Metaverse.
You feel that it is out of reach because you have been led into a misunderstanding — you think that the Metaverse is hardware, such as it must be fully dressed, or develop a brain-computer interface, and then enter another dream-like world, in the air It smells like a science fiction movie.
No, it’s just the appearance of the Metaverse.
The appearance is the most confusing, such as sharks and dolphins, they look like brothers, but one is a fish, the other is a mammal, one breathes by gills, and the other breathes by lungs.
If you study the essence, you will find that the Metaverse is neither high-tech wear nor low-latency immersion and other eight elements.
The real core of the Metaverse is time.
How much time you are willing to spend in this new system determines whether it is a Metaverse and whether it has any meaning.
If there is no time base, no matter how sophisticated the system, no matter how high-tech equipment, it is a pile of garbage.
Imagine you put on the latest equipment, enter the Metaverse with one key, switch back and forth between various virtual worlds, run a business empire here, and use NFTs to stir up land there, and then, and then 20 minutes later, you come out, Continue tomorrow.
Well, you pat your chest and ask yourself, is this the Metaverse?
No, it’s just a big game to play occasionally.
The value base of the Metaverse is time.
All of its architecture only makes sense if you’re willing to spend 12 hours a day or more.
Time is to the Metaverse what man is to the city.
A city without people, no matter how good the road, no matter how new the real estate is, no matter how luxurious the shopping mall, is essentially a ghost town.
Where there are people, there is wealth.
Where there is time, there is an ecosystem.
Okay, got this, I ask you, who are the competitors of the Metaverse?
is the real world.
The real scarcity of human beings is actually only one resource, and that is time.
No matter what you do, there are only 24 hours in a day. Whether to spend it in the real world or in the virtual world is the core competition.
It does not mean that if the eight elements are satisfied, it is the Metaverse, but only with time as the foundation, the eight elements have the value of existence.
Okay, now that I understand this, let me ask you again, what is the prototype of the Metaverse?
is the Internet.
The essence of the Internet is the competition for time. It builds a new ecology in a virtual world, and then steals your real time.
When there is no Internet, all transactions have to be done offline. You buy clothes and vegetables, and you write a love letter to discuss a business, all of which have to go offline.
But after the birth of the Internet, we will find that more and more time is being eroded by it, and more and more behaviors are withdrawing from the physical world.
So if the Metaverse is a higher life, then the internet is a single-celled being.
This creature is constantly evolving, from the first email, to the later web portal, to the later mobile social network, it becomes higher and higher, more complex, and occupies more and more time.
What has it become today?
short video.
A short video is a black hole that can lock your time. You can’t stop when you turn on the screen. When you go to the toilet without a mobile phone, you will feel that something is wrong.
When it takes all of your life, it robs you of the real world.
This is the Metaverse.
As for whether he uses VR glasses or some kind of photosensitive equipment, whether it is a brain-computer interface or a chip implant, it doesn’t matter at all, it’s just the most trivial details of the display method.
The essence of the Metaverse is time.
