The explosion of NFT is based on the popularity of blockchain technology and the currency circle, and after NFT has become a popular consumption trend, the rise of metaverse is closely related to NFT. From a morphological point of view, the Metaverse, as a virtual world, exists in parallel with the real world. As a user, a digital avatar is used to realize an interactive experience in the Metaverse form, which can be used for social interaction, entertainment, creation, education, and trading. . To a certain extent, the Metaverse form is an upgrade of the current Internet form. Here, the Metaverse and NFT are closely related. From a technical point of view, NFT is unique to ownership technology, and new guarantees can enable products such as artworks, music works, paintings, and even land and luxury goods to be recorded on the chain. With the help of NFT technology, the items in the Metaverse form can satisfy the user's ownership and provide support for users to achieve a better interactive experience. The hype characteristics of NFT consumption driving the original universe consumption market are also very obvious. Among them, relying on the original universe to store houses has become the most lucrative topic. It is understood that the current metaverse land transaction record has reached 27.36 million yuan. In addition, the virtual real estate developer Republicrealm confirmed that it has purchased a piece of virtual land on three thesanbox for a record US$4.3 million, and Republicrealm currently owns about 2,500 pieces of digital land on 19 different Metaverse platforms.
Recently, Adrian Cheng, a Hong Kong real estate magnate, announced to invest in the metaverse virtual world game thesanbdox, and purchased one of the largest digital plots in the three of thesanbdox. According to people familiar with the matter, Zheng Zhigang's investment in this virtual land is about 5 million US dollars or 3.2 million yuan. The popularity of NFT and Metaverse has made many investors think it is a new business opportunity, especially the various investment enthusiasm brought about by the previous explosion of currency speculation, which has made many people eager to hype NFT and Metaverse. But the market created by hype is bound to be a bubble, and the risk is greater. Many professionals also expressed different views on the status quo and form of the NFT and Metaverse market. Among them, newyoker columnist jamessurowiecki said that although NFT is unique, it does not mean that the content corresponding to NFT is also unique. In addition, he also said that in this wave of hot NFT, the ultimate real winner is likely not to be speculators in the NFT field, but companies and technical service providers that provide services for speculative transactions. Taking NFT transactions as an example, any investor has to pay transaction fees of varying amounts when conducting a transaction. The more speculative and hype is, the greater the transaction volume, and the amount of transaction fees will increase accordingly. Speculators may lose everything because of the bubble, while trading platforms make a lot of money.
Zhou Hong, the founder and chairman of 360 Group, said that I am not opposed to all metaverses, I only oppose those who speculate on the concept of the original universe, and issue virtual currency under the concept of the metaverse, and come under the banner of the metaverse. Do virtual community. Zhou Hongyi believes that the industrial park universe will have huge business opportunities and is also a blue ocean market in the future, but at the same time the industry and the universe will also face huge security risks, and the digital security capability system should be used to escort the development of the industry and the universe. In addition, there are also views that the explosion of the Metaverse is directly related to the transactions that have already been formed in the NFT market before, and the emergence of NFT and the improvement of transactions have enriched the form of the Metaverse industry. From a practical point of view, although NFT is becoming more and more mature at the technical level, the risk of speculation and speculation is very high. As an outlet that has attracted much attention this year, the market space brought by the combination with NFT technology is undoubtedly huge, and the implementation, practical application, and real investment value and direction behind it are not clear. As a new direction based on blockchain technology, NFT is certainly a new upgrade. In the future, with the blessing of this technology, it will be more perfect whether it is related to the form of the universe or others. However, the hot NFT+ Metaverse still reminds investors that behind the new things is a gold nugget field or a sickle for cutting leeks, and they still need to use their brains before pocketing money.
