Liu Cixin, the author of the "Three-Body Problem" novel and a science fiction writer, once said that there are two paths in front of human beings: one is outward, leading to the sea of stars, and the other is inward, leading to virtual reality. Now that virtual reality is being dubbed the "metaverse", Liu Sixin is extremely opposed, arguing that human beings cannot advance like the sea of stars, then eventually they will decline in the so-called source universe.
Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg ignited the flames of the metaverse concept, and he expects that in the next five years, Facebook will transition from what people see as a social media company to a metacosm company. With the maturity of AR, VR, and the application of 5G network technology, all barriers to communication at any time have disappeared, and with the maturity of artificial intelligence autonomous generation technology, coupled with the gradual formation of the blockchain economic system, NFT ownership has emerged, and he has identified the ownership of native digital assets with an innovative technology.
Some enthusiasts and investors begin to deploy their assets in the digital world, we must remember a basic consensus or cognition, that is, the value of any thing in the world is born, it should be recognized in this way, when most people reach a general consensus, the value of a thing is born. So these people are starting to buy land and real estate in the virtual world, and virtual real estate is booming. At the venue of the Taobao Maker Festival held in Shanghai in July 2021, a post-95 couple bought a digital property to be used as a wedding room.
If you don't understand the virtual real estate of the original universe, you can imagine that he is a human-machine exchange version of Monopoly game. In it, you can buy digital real estate, invest in it, or decorate it, and you can rent it to someone else or ask someone else to pay you. Of course, if this game is not played by anyone, then your real estate will naturally be worth less and less. But if there are more and more players in this game, and it is possible to replace all similar games in the world, then it is very likely that he will become your second life, then the virtual real estate you bought is constantly appreciating, because more and more people want to own, the rent price will be higher and higher, and the number of people who pay fees will be more and more.
In fact, the funds that enter the meta-universe are very much, most of which are free money, and the characteristics of the floating capital are to take high profits as the trend, and where the profits are high, they will pounce on where they are. So now China's real estate in the last three years of macro-control, has been very stable, then those speculation of the floating funds really have nowhere to go, naturally will rush into it. Their goal is the same as that of real estate speculation, that is, they want to quickly obtain high profits in the short term. But unfortunately this is a new cognitive world, and it is possible that many people will break the sand in it.
The metaverse may be a trend that represents the future, and many technological breakthroughs can be obtained in it. But if human beings want to seek new and great development, it is still the direction of the sea of stars, and if it is changed, then the future of mankind will be unimaginable.
