    Unless it’s a part of meta horizons I didn’t know about (which is very possible, I interacted about 3 minutes with it), that particular metaverse might have been some crypto/NFT bullshit rather.

    This sounds like something à la “decentraland” a.k.a cryptobros trying to sell plots in a terrible empty virtual world because some day it’ll sell for bazillions dollars, trust us.

      Yeah, that makes even NFTs look like a sound investment.

        Well. the plots are NFTs, so it’s just a subset of it really.

        Part of the so-called “web3” bullshit, the crypto people’s wet dream of a unified metaverse where every shitty asset is a financial investment and video games are not fun unless they’re grindy AI slop with a promised RoI.
