Citi has projected that by 2030, the Metaverse will capture five billion users - and be a thriving $13T economy.
Citi analysts dubbed the metaverse “the next generation of the internet.”
The investment bank also mentioned that to reach such a scale - developers will need to improve on clunky Web3 infrastructure.
“The definition of what counts as money in the open metaverse is also likely to be very different from what counts as money in the real world today,” the note said.
“Interoperability and seamless exchange between underlying blockchain technology are critical to ensure a frictionless user experience.”
What do you think of Citi's prediction?
