What is Virtual Reality and why is it important in the Metaverse?

The metaverse is usually described as an online digital universe with multitude of virtual spaces that can be used, practically, for any purpose. Work from the comfort of your home, socialize, host events, attend meetings, watch movies together, play games, or even date. One of the very appealing features is the chance to have a unique digital presence and customizable avatar that becomes your representative in the metaverse. Since the idea of the metaverse is tightly connected to blockchain technology, one of the main goals is to create a transparent and safe space for users, that can benefit from all the features of the new technology, such as transaction safety, trustworthy government system, and user-driven economy. The gaming industry is also only natural to become part of the metaverse since it is already in sync with its purpose of providing different opportunities and experiences under the same roof. Games being one of the major driving forces of today’s entertainment is something that metaverse will not be able to exist without.

At first glance, it may seem like Virtual Reality and Metaverse have nothing in common, but the more you explore the possibilities of both, the more you discover how much they both have to offer each other.

What VR has to offer here?

At first glance, it may seem like Virtual Reality and Metaverse have nothing in common, but the more you explore the possibilities of both, the more you discover how much they both have to offer each other.

Virtual Reality technology offers users an opportunity to be placed in a completely computer-generated virtual environment, creating full immersion in the metaverse, and offering a first-hand experience.  Socialization when using VR becomes extremely realistic, allowing you to meet people from all over the world as if you are in the same room with them and providing unlimited options regarding how to spend time. Communication, virtual meeting, education, and gaming are possible to be transferred to the world of Virtual Reality all in one place, creating the experience of metaverse as it is intended to be in the best-case scenario. Another interesting feature that can obtain a next-level dimension using VR, is that of the creation of personal space. User can create their own fully customizable space that will fulfill their needs and aesthetic beliefs and be used for a purpose of their choice. Is it an art gallery, a café, or just a cozy cabin in the woods that you always wanted to own? Well, there is nothing impossible anymore in the world of the metaverse.

All the benefits of web 3.0 and cryptocurrencies are perfectly applicable to VR technology, including access to the crypto market, trading, staking, and more.  Decentralization, which is one of the foundations of Web 3.0, provides security and copyright protection for every user regarding their digital property, appearance, and other data. Another, probably even more appealing opportunity of metaverse and VR is that models such as play-to-earn are possible to apply to VR blockchain games, making the metaverse a marketplace of unique income opportunities. Cryptocurrencies in this case can offer great benefits to the metaverse allowing the creation of a complete user-driven ecosystem.
