What will be the next big industry move?

[madnessteat]

Recently, people spent a lot of time on the Internet and virtual reality. 

This was due to the global pandemic of the Covid-19 coronovirus.

People did not travel, did not visit friends and acquaintances, did not visit theaters and restaurants.  Therefore, people spent a lot of time exploring virtual reality. 

The coronavirus pandemic is currently on the decline.  People are now more interested in the real (living) reality.  Therefore, now the development of the Metaverse will slow down. 

However, this does not mean that the process of creating the Metaverses will stop or reverse.

Over the past two weeks, the global situation has changed perhaps even more seriously than during the pandemic.  You all know why. 

And all this will lead to serious economic consequences for millions, if not billions of people.  So the topic of the development of metauniverses, NFT and other modern technologies will obviously slow down.  Consequently, the development of innovations in the field of online gambling will also slow down. 

And in general, I think this topic of the metaverses is too bloated and advertised by fans of it technologies.
  And don't take this topic too seriously.

Absolutely agree with your opinion. The economies of many countries are facing real challenges. People are increasingly thinking about their future rather than entertainment. Developing NFT and metaverses in this environment is quite problematic as the demand for them continues to decline.

It would be interesting to know if the number of visits to online casinos has changed in the last two weeks. Somehow it seems to me that this activity should go down as well.

I don't know about NFT, but this trend for the metaverses looks like a collapse in my opinion - spring and summer are ahead. The pandemic is over and now most people will return to real life and the topic of the metaverses will recede to tenth roles in priority. It is difficult to say when they will become relevant again, but definitely not in the next year - people still have enough impressions from ordinary life that they have lost the habit of.

metaverses aren't built in 1 day, crypto itself is starting to get traction now after 10 years
give it time, it will come, but needs time to develop, have cheaper technology, etc...

Nope  I often hear this argument about time and I do not agree with it (and even in relation to cryptocurrencies). If the technology is in demand, then it spreads very quickly and occupies its own niche, if not, then it doesn’t, and no time will help here. See how fast tiktok has spread. With VR/AR/Metaverse nothing like this is observed. I concluded that without serious (even revolutionary) technical breakthroughs, these technologies will not gain a large audience and remain in their narrow niches.

It only sucks that the effects of the pandemic still haven't ended yet but there are other problems again that adds up and make the situation worse. Entertainment will still be in demand and I think the demand can go higher than what you guys are expected. That is because people will try to divert their attention for a while from real world problems to gambling and metaverse/NFT's to relax and release the stress that they feel.

If they are lucky or if they possess some skills, they can also manage to earn a profit from those activities that I mentioned above. Number of visits from a casino will also depend on the casino if they offer great services.

The pandemic has had a huge impact not only on gambling, but on everything that can be done online. It is very likely that COVID will cause a snowball effect that will make a large part of our lives move to the virtual world. I think the next step in the gambling industry will be the tremendous growth of the casinos in the metaverse.

There was a clear trend that was in place even before the pandemic in which the lives of people became more and more digital to the point that some people find more value in their digital lives than in their real ones, however the pandemic has accelerated that process to an amazing speed and now it seems we are going to get there way faster than what we thought at first, is it a good thing? I am not sure, but that is clearly the tendency we are seeing right now.

Yes, this has merit, but I do not believe it will take more than 10 years or so. The development of equipment, on the other hand, I believe will take time, but if we are talking about adaptability, I believe that people will adapt quickly to it. Nonetheless, the point is that it would take years to completely bug-free the metaverse, and they will continue to update and upgrade it on a regular basis. Because of technological advancements in recent years, it would be much more rapid than in the past.

That made sense. Online activities are on top when everyone was staying at home because of quarantine and Covid related restrictions. Today, we are gradually moving forward to return to our normal routine where everyone can enjoy thier outdoor lives. So, that being said, there will be a significant number of decline in number for demand or the target market for metaverse. I may not say it's a collapse , but If metaverse become a trend in future, that will definitely takes time.

[passwordnow]

I will discourage the use of USDT, maybe the use of DAI will encourage adoption, but I will stay away from anything related to Tether.
Gambling and licensing can be complicated at times, and Tether has the ability to freeze any USDT on any address if they feel you are a threat. It's possible that Tether will freeze USDT on a gambling website if a user complains that they didn't provide him with decent service or that he lost money for any reason and wants his money back.
To avoid all of these issues, a small amount of decentralization is also required in gambling, and I believe DAI should be included in both deposits and withdrawals.

It is a known feature that Tether can freeze assets from their users and block them. But because of the volume, still, many casinos would just accept it.
It's because wherever the volume is, they are going to be there as well. That's part of their business but it's also good if they will add an option just like what you've said for DAI. It's one promising real decentralized stable coin that many are still not aware of.

[paxmao]

It is a good point that potentially NFTs that could be used for gambling are much more difficult to freeze or be taken forcefully from anyone. This as always has a big upside and a big downside. It is very difficult to implement a regulation, for example, that applies sanctions to these type of assets yet they have a value and could be used to finance any side on a conflict.

After reading your post, I thought. 
Indeed, a year ago, only NFT-NFT- was heard from everywhere.
About six months ago, all sorts of MetaUniverses were advertised, hundreds of them have already been launched. 
And now it's all somehow subsided, it has become common and does not cause much interest among the broad masses of Internet users. 
So yeah, I agree, we should expect the next technological discovery of the 2022 season.
And taking into account it, predict the next step in the development of gambling.

Last night, I idly watched a movie about VR. The film is called Moussa, and I wonder if it will be like VR is happening now? But if it has been applied to gambling, how do you feel about playing gambling using glasses? It also feels strange if we wear VR glasses to play gambling. Or maybe with the development of technology, we can see playing gambling virtually like when we interact at a real gambling table. It's really still beyond my ability to imagine

[goldkingcoiner]

There is a possibility that the NFT trend has started to fall if you look at the results from Google trends and another trend may appear to replace the NFT trend. It has happened many times before and if this is indeed the end of NFT and Metaverse, maybe we need to get ready for a new trend to emerge.

Maybe it's time for bitcoin and altcoins to bounce back while waiting for a new trend to create a stir like the previous trend. But if you look at market conditions, it seems the market has also moved down. Is it possible the current downturn in the market has caused the NFT and the metaverse to also go down?

The NFT trend definitely is not going anywhere anytime soon, as far as I can deduce from my subjective point of view. We see trends go up and down however I think most financial or finance-connected trends will definitely be going down during these times. I think the world is in a state of panic with what is happening in Europe, namely Ukraine, right now, so its not out of the ordinary that NFTs are not as popular right now.

As far as the world of gambling goes, the near-future Industry definitely has a lot of potential regarding NFT's. I think we haven't even seen the beginning yet.

Time will tell.

could be but I think your comparison doesn't apply here
tik tok is a web2 model of something that was already proven to have product market fit (see instagram, youtube, etc...)

metaverse adoption/tech should be compared to smartphone adoption, internet.
this need infrastructure, needs technology breakthroughs that we haven't passed yet.

bitcoin took 13 years to get to the number of users it has today, you think it will remain niche?
Look again in 13 more years....

NFT is at baby stage at the moment and many institutional investors,celebrity and other whales see a huge potential especially they see that there's a lot of money in that category so for sure we will not see NFT hype end up soon as for sure many will adopt the system it introduce to the people. Also with gaming industry for sure many game dev are looking to create a game in line with blockchain technology.

Remember when it was pre-pandemic? Almost all casino and gambling place are full of people, however when pandemic hits everyone disperse and eventually no one would go to places to prevent from getting sick of Covid-19. However, they didn't stop when the pandemic hits, they research and invest to enter the online gambling. Yes there is already some online gambling sites, but for some owner who only manages their place and didn't involve themselves to be present in the online gambling community. Upon entering the late 2020's, they are able to cope up with the modernization and able to continue their business through online, also gaining more profit than ever.

Here's what 'could be' a big move:  Player pool cross over for player vs player games like poker via creation and development of a 'poker network'.  I know this isn't rally a big move since poker networks are common for fiat sports betting sites and poker sites but this hasn't been done before in crypto.  I have been suggesting it a couple of years back but it looked like nobody was interested.

With the metaverse becoming a thing I think crypto online gambling sites could work together and share their player pools not just for poker but for a lot of games.

Yes, it was WEB 2.0, but are we talking about something else? Talk about WEB 3.0 remains talk - everything that is now being created under the guise of metaverses is completely a product of WEB 2.0 where there is one creator/manager who can carry out any policy, carry out censorship, etc.

In the light of recent events, I mean the situation in the world after the crisis in Ukraine, it is generally not at all clear whether it will be possible to create web3 on a global scale.  

The fact that Meta no longer censors calls for violence against Russians in general fully showed what kind of bastard and foul is running this company!
With this decision, Meta has terribly hurt the entire global Internet community.

If there is web3 then censorship will be a problem and no government will allow it.  
And accordingly, there will still be centralization.
Therefore, it is too early to talk about casinos and gambling sites on web3 platforms.

I hope that it will be possible to create a fully decentralized Web 3.0 system.  based on Monero and Tari. 

web 3.0.  needs anonymity and confidentiality.  This is what makes it possible to resist censorship. 

Cryptocurrency is an evolutionary process.  There are a huge number of alternative ways of development.  If one of the paths turns out to be a dead end, then new projects immediately begin to develop. 

Therefore, crypto cannot be defeated.  I am sure that it will be possible to create a truly decentralized online casino based on the Tari digital asset system.

How do you imagine a world without censorship at all? 
When will all sorts of moral freaks advertise violence, fascism, national hatred, and finally pornography, suicide and other abominations?
Here I cannot agree that the Internet would be filled with all this rubbish. 
Better let there be censorship.
