However, indicating a survey conducted by Harris Poll showed that only 38% of the Generation Z respondents believe that the metaverse is the next big thing. It added that the virtual world will become a part of our lives in the next decade.
China imposing hard rules over digital assets
The Chinese authority has been issuing major warnings of trading risks in the NFTs. Meanwhile, cryptocurrencies are banned in mainland China. However, the government has signaled that they don’t have any intention of banning NFTs. This has led giants such as Alibaba and Tencent in filing new NFT patents in the past.
