Is Metaverse Going to Zero?! (The FEDs are coming after it!!) Metaverse and NFT projects such as Bored Apes are the next targets for FEDs. Are they all going downhill?
Is Metaverse Going To Zero?! (The FEDs are coming after it!!) White Hat Crypto Oct 2, 2022 The metaverse is a modern online world that includes a digital economy and an immersive virtual environment, as well as other social aspects. This relatively new area has acquired so much momentum in recent years that conservative estimates indicate that its overall worth might exceed $800 billion by 2024. Meta (the parent company of Facebook and Instagram), Google, Microsoft, Nvidia, Nike, and other Fortune-100 companies have made significant metaverse investments. Enormous valuations, however, bring great scrutiny from even more tech-savvy financial authorities. Unlike traditional software businesses, which generally prioritize growth above money for years, some metaverse initiatives push dodgy monetization techniques on their customers before providing a live experience. Big Time Games, for example, sells land in its metaverse before allowing entry to the game! Typically, the Securities and Exchange Commission does not intervene until retail investors are subjected to the exploitative pursuit of their funds without complete transparency of what they are investing in. The boundary between what constitutes security is frequently blurred, yet in the case of the metaverse, the process of land sales should be regarded as security under US law. GameFi platforms like Axie Infinity show how quickly metaverse ventures may generate multibillion-dollar economies. Because of their size, they require internal controls and monetary policies comparable to those of multinational banks or even small nations. They should be forced to employ officers who communicate with government authorities and even do ‘Know Your Customer’ procedures for significant transactions. Financialization is heavily linked to the metaverse. While there is no physical harm that can be caused in the metaverse (currently), a great deal of financial damage has already been done. This year, the firm behind the Bored Apes Yacht Club nonfungible tokens (NFTs) was hacked when a community manager’s Discord account was stolen. NFTs worth 200 Ether was stolen by hackers. A group of Wall Street firms was fined $1.8 billion recently for using “restricted” texting applications. Yuga Labs and other metaverse ventures could face similar severe fines for failing to install safe monetary and technological controls. =============================== お気に入りの記事を「いいね!」で応援しよう
