Very small still in terms of global users as it is just so insignificant right now, but that will change in the decades to come

Based on what, exactly? Hopes and dreams?

Face it... the metaverse is a dead mall.

Even that reading is giving it too much credit, by calling it what it wants to be. Money-addicts could build The Oasis. They cannot build the metaverse. No individual force can. No more than any single billionaire dork could have built the internet. A network, yes. A network of networks, yes. But it can't be the network of all networks, unless it's a cooperative endeavor of basically everyone.

And it'd never work as-described because a flat objective map of virtual space is dumb as hell. Like asking which website is north of Reddit.

It shouldn't take an in-depth two-hour video to dismiss "virtual real estate." Saying it out loud will do.

Dead? It is still being incubated.
