The technical term is the Metaverse. First coined in Neal Stephenson’s 1992 sci-fi novel, Snow Crash, as a concept that blends digital and physical existence. It’s already a $30B market BUT we haven't seen anything yet based on the following: ENTER LIQUID AVATAR METAVERSE ENTRY WITH AFTERMATH ISLANDSAccording to Strategy Analytics, the global metaverse market size is projected to increase ~ 1,000% to $280 billion by 2025 from $30.7 billion in 2021 SOURCE … but we think that’s a very conservative estimate Bloomberg Intelligence believes the Metaverse can reach $800 billion by 2024.
