Is "metaverse" the new "blockchain"?

I.e. the thing all the lunatics believe will radically change our universe, but will eventually turn out to be one big niche thing that almost nobody will care about in 3-5 years from now?

Remember "revolutionary" 3D movies and when everyone and their mothers were rushing to buy VR headsets, if it didn't succeed back then I fail to see how it could now

I couldn't give two sh-ts about either one (beyond the carbon footprint of crypto mining and such)

@SW-User ...would you *sell* them? lmao

@SomeMichGuy what do you mean, like if someone gifted me bitcoin and there was an eager buyer eyeing it?

@SW-User Just doing a riff on giving shits v. selling them. lol

SW-User

@SomeMichGuy no, even though I am on SW I wouldn't sell them either 😱

@SW-User I shudder to think that it probably IS happening, somewhere...
