If you’re still skeptical about the metaverse, you certainly aren’t\u00a0alone. According to a recent\u00a0survey, 55 percent of adults with yearly incomes over $100,000 said they were not interested or excited about the concept, while 37 percent said they were primarily worried about it. Only 6 percent of respondents claimed to be excited about the metaverse.<\/p>\n

Those numbers might not seem encouraging, but it’s important to remember that one of the most popular metaverse platforms currently available, Roblox,\u00a0averages\u00a0more than\u00a054 million daily users, the vast majority of whom are\u00a0Gen-Z or younger.<\/span><\/strong> Those users\u00a0have cumulatively spent more than\u00a0$1 billion on digital items\u00a0such as\u00a0outfits or accessories designed to be worn by player avatars in addition to in-experience upgrades and various other paid features.<\/p>\n
