I don't find any real usability for this Metaverse: actually I think it will only make people and society dumber and closer to the Idiocracy movie. Spending time online wearing some stupid glasses it's a no no for me. Also the NFTs are a waste of time and money, I wouldn't buy useless digital shoes and buildings. I love BTC and have diamond hands but these 2 things I'm not a fan of and I know I will never be. Society needs to become wiser not dumber. Living in a digital realm sucks, I'm a human being not a stupid machine. Rant over.

I am also not a fan of NFT, at least as far as its current state is concerned, and the rising metaverse.
The cyber space is already here. Metaverse is not really a breakthrough or a timely or useful innovation. It is nothing but a mere fad or a novelty in the huge online world.
As far as non-fungible tokens are concerned, perhaps we could find real-life uses to them. For example, we could keep records such as land titles, ownership certificates, and the likes in the form of NFTs. But the way NFTs are being exploited right now seems to make no sense at all. It is mostly associated with artworks that are not really inspiring or creative or simply devoid of artistry, even stolen or whose original idea is taken from existing artworks.

I don't have it, I can't access it and I don't know how other people have implemented it either. The benefits are also not that great, Metaverse is just a game world from Mark madness. So in general we don't really care what's in the Metaverse, it's for them and to keep their big business going. We can't be as big as Mark to go crazy in the Metaverse world. it's too scary to spend time with VR which reduces real-world interactions.

Sure you are not the only one. Many crypto i vestors dont stray themselves into losing BTC by investing in NFT or piece of Meta land, I'm sure its just hype. There were already crypto developments like this before such as the kitties and they died. We didnt call them NFT back then.
I'm already satisfied playing i the market trading but theres also one that I'm interested the Play to earn games which is part of the metaverse. If I want my kid not to get involve in a wrong crowd, metaverse will be good. Learn to make money and be independent.

These are broader concepts in the overall development of blockchain technologies. Not only glasses and idle pastime. Another and necessary step in the development of a new financial and artistic Internet.

I don't have a good grasp on it but I feel the metaverse could just be the Minecraft of the past - both will probably keep growing.
In game and art nfts are fine and useful. Paying $180+ to play a game is probably not what anyone would consider too reasonable though or buying some land for a few $k.
I think people are searching for a modern day version of netflix/amazon/bitcoin/ethereum and falling at it.

Just like you, I also have no interest in investing in virtual things like that, we don't know if the metaverse can last long or if it's just hype that will be replaced by other hype in the future, instead of having to buy property in the virtual world, of course it would be better for us to invest property in real world , because in the end all of us who are here must be faced with real life not virtual.

metaverse is simply a replacement of webpages for interactive shopping mall(3d RPG).
retailers would buy 'land' so they can design virtual retail stores that can do more then a real world brick and mortar store can do aesthetically.
obviously having certain retail 'land' in suitable locations can become its own real estate. EG there can be female fashion, jewellery, perfumes, soaps shopping mall.. and have 100 female centered retailers in one server(gamezone) and more male centered retailers in a separate zone
its not about buying 'in game' artifacts. its about viewing ingame artifacts that represent real world products, where you can buy the item 'ingame' which translates to a real world product getting delivered to your house.
replace ebay item images which you click on to add to cart, with instead a 3d rendered model that you put in your backpack. and the same applies. you pay for the item seen on the web and the real world good gets delivered.
the whole nft stuff is so that for instance pepsi can render a 3d model of a case of bottles. and t-shirts. and then licence who can sell pepsi official items to certain retailers. whereby the retailers are also ordering real world cases of bottles from pepsi to sell to customers that 'click' on a 3d render and pay for it.
.. yes people can also create their own items to sell.. much like interior designers create displays for retailer and get paid for it. yes people can also create their own items to sell.. much like any craftsman can create their own wares and products to sell to customers

Unlike before, now there is what they called play-2-earn, gamers can now spend time playing games and earn money in return, people spend thousands to buy PlayStation to play games for nothing (all for the fun of it) they spend real cash to buy in-game items before without getting anything in return, but with metaverse introducing the p2e idea, the narrative is changing, it is possible to actually earn something, if you see it as a waste of time, know that it didn't start from metaverse, because most metaverse projects are game related and gaming has been in existence way back when I don't see what is bad in it, But I do think nft are overhyped, I can't imagine spending so much money on digital art, I guess art lovers don't have a problem with that.

No, you are not alone in that. I mean, to each his own, and we have to take some things into consideration. Even though we think the METAverse is a dumb idea, younger generations might not. Just think how the generation before us (you) thought about our generation and its technological achievements. The other thing to consider is the SF thought experiment that solves the Fermi Paradox, and that is that advanced species in the universe, rather than venturing outward into space, actually go inward into a simulated reality.
As for NFTs...it's just irritating that they are throwing NFTs at anything to see what sticks.

Everyone has their opinions. If you will ask any artist whether they like the NFT or not ? Then obviously given the chance to put their artwork online and get paid they will always say yes for it. It’s their wager you know?
Obviously personally we can always put forth our decision to like bitcoin or NFT or metaverse; but things do not work on individual opinion.
For anything to be successful both sides need to be thoughtfully learnt and in this case usability of coins over blockchain and the user himself.
Let’s not forget the waste of money for you became someone daily wage because of NFT.

I strongly support bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies but when it's about metaverse I cannot really place my bets on there. For me the whole idea of NFT is legit at many places but I would never own an NFT for sure, NFT'S are definately becoming a big part of everyday routine and at the same time they are getting a lot of recognition from everywhere as well. Something that might be valuable in a few year's time is definately a good investment. Also it's providing a lot of artists recognition but then again always receiving those notifications on the Instagram is quite annoying people are turning it as a scam and also tracking the people down as well. I think it's a 50-50 thing, the metaverse.

I am not so much a fan of NFTs but why I should have to hate NFTs!! I don't like NFTs cause it seems useless to me, all of these are hype, ICO, STO, IEO, IDO, meme coin, NFT all are hyped projects and evolved from time to time. I've heard people say that NFTs are very popular with artists, maybe it will play an important role in preserving the art of future generations. Many people collect NFTs as a hobby. I don't like NFTs because they are of no use to me, so I don't hate them.

I think that the general ideas of the Metaverse are sound, and having a unified virtual space for various experiences could be a good thing. But for that to be actually nice and useful, it should be a decentralized system, not something built by Facebook Meta or Microsoft. If you're talking about VR, it's actually pretty good and allows experiencing things you're not going to experience otherwise (walking around bizarre worlds of video games, flying a helicopter and things like that). As for NFTs, I don't hate the idea of them, but I think there's way too much hype over them, and they are not very useful for anything apart from supporting those who create art.

Never really cared about Metaverse aside from just hearing it a lot here in the forum in the Altcoin Discussion. About NFTs, I never really bought any NFTs nor I have the plans to do so in the future. People are now looking at NFTs as either an artwork being sold in OpenSea or just another in-game item/s in a random game. I am still curious about these two you mentioned, but from how it is being seen and used by my friends in social media, I don't think I am getting way further from what I knew about it.

Aren't people already living in virtual fake universes even without the called metaverse hype? Every mmorpg or dumb mobile app game are a kind of metaverse where people put hundreds or thousands of dollars on their accounts to upgrade their stats or make their characters look cooler. And it really works for developers, otherwise many popular online games which are alive for decades already would be dead at this time.
NFT just upgrades this ecosystem a little bit. So instead of only putting money on games without cashing out anything, now you will be able to sell your stuff as well if you wish at some point. For me there isn't any cons on it. That is actually pretty good and rewarding for people who spends their whole lives on virtual environments playing videogames.

I recently heard that NFTs has become a game for the rich. Don't get me wrong, anyone can invest but then, to get NFTs with some real value or to put yours out, the funds are huge and for what!? That's the biggest surprise, for what! What's the point in actual of having some virtual art. Something that is easily pirated by just anyone and everyone. Not like it's being displayed in some digital museum or something or you would get some monetary value per view on the piece. Its just there and getting overrated. I think, its time would pass because, its idea isn't concrete enough.
Bitcoin have survived so long and even taken some other forms to it because, if was supposed for an everyday life or usage but then, its value turned and even at that, its original purpose is still maintained. Though, its really used but NFTs, I can't say!

You are not likely to be the only one who has nothing toward NFTs. Personally, i just love bitcoin and two other altcoins. I am not OK with all the waves that came with the expanding growth of the Blockchain technology, including NFTs and Meme coins. About NFTs, i think it's a wave moved by Hype and it still haven't any real utility or use cases. I would never be a fan of nonsense called "Digital Arts" .

We share a common feeling towards NFT stuff but I admit it, even if people hate it and look at it as useless and just a waste of time and money, thinking the profit it can give by taking advantage of people's idiocracy, I think is good enough reason for profit loving wise people to indulge themselves in participating on these so-called profit-generating venture. I recently heard that NFTs has become a game for the rich.
It has been since the beginning. Only people with super big funds in their pocket can shine in NFT games. Well, it is actually the custom in any pay-to-win game.

I never liked shitcoins and I don't like NFTs. They're nothing but a gambling opportunity where you buy trash hoping that you can sell it to someone who doesn't understand it for more, or that there will be someone who is like you but thinks he still has a chance to fetch a higher price. Like think for a second. If I gave you a crayon drawing of a bird would you pay me $1k for it? I'd promise that it's one of a kind and that I'll never try to sell a drawing of a bird like that. If you wouldn't then the question is why people do it? Why do they think a stupid 16 bit pixel art is worth a million dollars? You have to be crazy to think you can keep making money selling pictures of animals in hats drawn in paint.
