Metaverse
2022 is poised to be the year of METAVERSE.
It’s important for us to educate ourselves with the growing technology.
I WILL TRY TO EXPLAIN IT IN SIMPLE TERMS.
What is Metaverse?
We all are Harry Potter fans, and we all have imagined how amazing it would be to be a part of that universe. Well now through Metaverse it's possible.
"Metaverse is where reality meets Imagination."
It's a technology based augmented reality space. The characters will be real human beings, each one will have a digital avatar of their own. This digital representation of people avatar can interact at work, play games, go to concerts together, even own a piece of land and build thier dream house in a virtual space, it's where actual movements and conversations can take place.

We all have played video games and have been a part of that virtual world, owned properties, currencies, cars, etc. In metaverse all this would be in the form of NFTs and Tokens. You can buy a piece of land and create your own world. Or you can purchase NFTs from various projects on the metaverse and be a part of that world.
What's on the horizon.
Well known Internet Giants are entering the Metaverse.
• Google is creating AR Device which will create it's own virtual world.
