Meta’s move is a big gamble. The last three years, they have put billions to work buying companies, hiring talent and funding research and development. The goal of the tech superpower America’s corporate elite built is superintelligence AI. They’re out to win the “next interface” through voice-driven experiences, immersive metaverse...
These are all reasons why YZi Labs recently placed a big bet on MEET48 – a social, decentralized metaverse platform. We know this decision reflects their incredible confidence in the platform’s future. Hold on a second, stop the presses, don’t pop that cork quite yet. Underneath the glamour and glitz...
The metaverse. Remember all that hype? More billions poured in, more promises of a new reality, and… crickets. That original vision, a boundless digital nirvana for all, crashed and burned worse than a cow on Mars. Like the villain in a cheesy horror movie, it’s come back yet again. This...
Let’s face it, the first time you hear “meme coin” and “digital identity” used in the same breath you laugh out loud. I get it. It sounds like a punchline. What if I told you there’s a lot more to TikTok than goofy dog pictures and viral trends. Under the...
Let's be real. The metaverse hype train derailed. You've probably heard the news: Meta's bleeding money, VR adoption isn't skyrocketing, and even Deadpool can't save you from motion sickness (thanks, Ailsa Chang for bravely sharing that!). Before we all start penning VR’s obituary, hold on a sec. As someone who’s...
In short, Philip Rosedale, creator of Second Life, is on to something with his idea of the metaverse. The problem is that the metaverse, as it’s currently conceived, isn’t inviting to your mom. And honestly? He's right. That’s not a dismissal of the future, but rather a reality-check we say...
Apparently, Joseph Lubin believes Wall Street is on the verge of jumping into DeFi with both feet. I’m inclined to agree with his optimism — what does that optimism actually mean for the future of the metaverse? Does this mean that the flood of traditional finance cash will bring us...
Espionage isn’t what it used to be like in James Bond films. No need for exploding pens and microdots. The new frontier is digital—and it’s nightmarish. We’re not just referring to hackers stealing government secrets. After all, we’re not just discussing the erosion of journalism, but rather of truth itself....
The metaverse. It’s what everyone is talking about, hyping, investing in. And when people hear metaverse, the first name that comes to mind is NVIDIA. After all, their GPUs power the visual world around us. So it’s only natural to imagine that they’ll continue to dominate into the next wave...
Remember the early days of the internet? Wild West, right? That’s how DeFi seemed just a few years ago. “Rug pulls” started entering the broader crypto lexicon. That’s starting to change and for the better. We know regulation can be a buzzkill but it’s the only way to find out...
The crypto world loves a good narrative, and Humanity Protocol's H token is dripping with one: a fairdrop revolution. Yet the promise is unmistakable. We will fight to reclaim airdrops from the arms of the bot armies and restore them to actual, live human beings. The method? Palm scans. Yes,...
A billion-dollar valuation for the ability to palm scan? No joke. While everyone’s chasing the next crypto unicorn, I can’t shake the feeling we're blindly galloping towards a future where our bodies are the ultimate key – and the ultimate target. Humanity Protocol’s H token has skyrocketed, partially fueled by...
It’s that same sort of exuberance you felt when you first heard about the metaverse. The fulfillment of digital utopia, being in touch with everyone on planet Earth through expansive online metaverses, creating prosperous virtual societies? It sounded revolutionary. Now, look at Horizon Worlds. Clunky avatars, digital tumbleweeds, and a...
Zuckerberg wants AGI. Personal superintelligence, he calls it. An AI that essentially runs your life. Sounds convenient, right? Maybe. But let's be brutally honest: entrusting the keys to your existence to a single, centralized entity – especially one with Zuckerberg's track record – is a recipe for disaster. Well, it’s...
Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, is currently navigating a complex path, attempting to redefine his public image and position himself as a leading figure in the burgeoning field of artificial intelligence. Zuckerberg has made no secret of his desire to see Meta take the lead in artificial general intelligence (AGI)....
DeFi might seem like a remote world, but I’ll never forget being at a DeFi conference last year. The typical panicky lunge for registration lines, relatable uncomfortable small talk… but then, wait, what’s this. Rather than needing to keep up with a paper name tag, I simply scanned a QR...
I’ve always been interested in the way art and technology can bring people together. My past as a graphic novel artist and writer showed me the impact visual storytelling can have on connecting with others. I never envisioned how powerful these digital collectibles could be – how they can be...
