Steemit Crypto Academy Contest / S3W1 - The Metaverse by @dave-hanny

Hello fellow steemians, I am excited to be among the participant of this great engagement challenge of the crypto academy community with an interesting topic: The metaverse. A big thanks to the steemit platform team for bringing about the engagement to keep steemians engaging with one another, and thanks to my fellow steemians for having you all on my blog to read my article, I have a lot to say about the metaverse, therefore, be relaxed and keep reading to the endpoint and I believe you will find it interesting as well.

Metaverse: is a world of its own and it is a very special world whereby, so many things can be done such as; Meeting people, relating and having conversations with one another, playing of games is another activity that can be done there, people can hold meetings also but all of these things are done virtually.

Metaverse is operated such that transactions can be carried out without the movement of an individual, remember I said all of these things are done virtually. Metaverse is designed in such a way that, commands can be given with the use of a particular gadget that would respond to whatsoever command and get it implemented therefore has eased individuals from stress. Surprisingly, activities like using some gadgets that are related to metaverses such as the VR(visual realities) or our phones. The use of the mentioned gadgets is for gaming, especially visual reality gaming. While playing such games, the imagination and realities are wholly different and an individual or the player sees or views himself in that real world's activity of the game.

I have mentioned earlier that, there are so many things done in the metaverse such as purchasing or making transactions. In making transactions in the metaverse, the user does not use conventional currencies, but the presence of cryptocurrency which came in place of the conventional currency is the only currency that can be allowed or recognized so as the buyer buys, the seller receives his or her money which makes metaverse perfect. I have mentioned earlier that, metaverse is a world of its own, therefore, brings about what is called the avatar. Avatar helps to show an individual's recognition in the metaverse world.

It's been known that metaverse is on the internet which is gradually growing and would be known by most individuals and hope that it will turn into a body of it's own. Metaverse was formed to give or create an imagination of individuals to a different world which is to be noted as virtual and not a real. It is gradually hoping that the virtual metaverse will broadly grow to be a reality by having its portion that would seem real which will enable individual to visit not physically though but shall be a world where individuals can visit.

We have so many bodies which are taking part in the metaverse and are taking it upon themselves to make sure the metaverse has gone far by staking with some amount of money. We've also heard of other and known bodies which are going to be rewarded for having the metaverse application in their phones which all of these are collaborations and strategies to see that the metaverse has gone to their taste stage of reality.

State the technologies that can be utilized to achieve Security, Ownership, and others in the Metaverse. In your own words, how are the technologies going to be utilized to achieve security and ownership? (Include any components of the technologies that would be of great advantage to the development of Metaverse).

The key thing that gives individuals comfort of their assets is the assurance of how safe their assets would be. Security makes an individual so relaxed and sure of the safety of his belongings. What keeps an organization, institute, or platform moving is the assurance of safety.

Now, the virtual world would be such that an individual will be given his or her password and whatever that would be used by him, and as such, there can never be any intending of hackers or scammers and that is the assurance from the virtual world but talking of the present life where the scammers or hackers can come through by any formulation of identification to intrude into people's property. Metaverse it is such that every property will be secured because it is not a world of easy access but with your identification. Therefore, security and ownership is suree in the metaverse and give people more trust for such a world.

I am very aware that, in the aspect of gaming, people use example virtual reality game for entertainment as people gets those things ready and fixed in their bodies. I have once played the game and the experience was what I can't forget because it is indeed great entertainment. Another thing I know about the game is that, it is very expensive to play but because of how interesting it is, people come every day trapping into the center to play the games, I mean people of different gender both the mature and the young people rushes to play that.

We have so many games that are been gradually dealing and cueing to the works of metaverse so, as people get that interesting, more initiatives are coming to the metaverse world which the game aspect would be one of the ways of getting through many to the metaverse world.

Presently, there are different introductions of games as a development in the metaverse world an example is VR which gives deep thinking of imagining life outside the world. And another is the Roblox which is also a development and the number one that makes the development of games into the metaverse world. These games entertain but it's a game of proper calculations and thinking.

And presently, in the metaverse world, the Roblox development is such that its workers organize every kind of meetings in the virtual world, not just that but celebrations can also be done there in Roblox, all done virtually.

We also have another game that comes as the second in the whole world of gaming in the metalerse which is the Axis infinity. This is another development in the metaverse world, and in this game, the player or its user has the economy to himself, and also, because I know how interesting the game is, it became known. This game gives the player the ability and order to stalk coins. They also have access to trading NFTs and most times succeed without any interruption.

One of them is the polygon protocol. This gaming project creates Matic. Matic is a native coin and this has been at work with the blockchain and making every necessary connection of the blockchain. The polygon protocol is such that it works tirelessly to see the blockchain's scalability and also its ability to be flexible as a blockchain. Polygon protocol ensures the security of the blockchain such as that of Ethereum.

Now, matic as I have mentioned above is a native token from polygon protocol which is also present in the metaverse. The matic coin works very straight and clear by securing and working fast for staking and this matic tokens is been stake by individual which is a token from the polygon protocol and the staking also provides rewards.

I said earlier that, the matic tokens are fast in transactions, and most times, it is preferable to the Ethereum protocol, and the presence of the polygon protocol, gave the blockchain access to collaborate with Ethereum.

It is very true that for every advantage there is a disadvantage. Metaverse is a world of its own and in it, there are so many going on there, a lot has been said about metaverse and all that Is been done there with its beauty and how extraordinary exciting happenings in the metaverse but with all these, there is an advantage and disadvantage of the metaverse.

• The hidden uniqueness of metaverse is that it brings two individuals closer as they communicate without minding how far they are from each other and whatever message they want to pass to each other will be done.

• Metaverse would ease the stress of meeting physically or having parties or any discussion.
  Remember, it would be done virtually.

Cons

• In using traverse, there might be bullying

• I want to believe the use of metaverse wouldn't be easy for those In the villages for better connections reasons.

• As interesting as gaming is, so also individuals would give too much of their time or be addicted to that.

• The use of metaverse might not be cheap and would require a high percentage of its users.

Conclusion
