The important traits of the metaverse:
- A fundamental part of the Metaverse is the capacity to share virtual settings with other people within a world and have a true sensation of presence.
- Hardware agnostic: These digital worlds will be accessible through a variety of hardware platforms. Users can engage with these worlds using a variety of devices, including virtual reality (VR/AR) headsets, mobile phones, tablets, and wearables.
- User-Generated Content: The Metaverse will be dominated by creators, with content and experiences created or enhanced by users themselves
- Live and Persistent: The Metaverse will be a real-time, never-ending parallel reality.
- Economically Fertile: Digital worlds will have fully functioning economies based on cryptocurrencies that allow for buying, selling, investing, and true ownership.
- Users will be able to fluidly navigate between virtual worlds and bring elements from one to the other. Access points (such as QR codes) and hybrid physical/digital product ownership allow these digital worlds to interact with the physical world.
