We Build an Open Metaverse...Together...One Piece at a Time

The Open Metaverse doesn’t exist today. The metaverse today is comprised of multiple emerging technologies that promise interoperability & a seamless movement of assets & consciousness between Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, & Shared Reality Metaverses. 🧵👇(1/15) 

Web 2.0 platforms are moving cautiously when investing in a specific #Metaverse technology architecture blueprint. Why? Because it is too early to determine which technology investments will be viable long-term. #OpenMetaverse 🧵👇(2/15)

As a result, many Web 2.0 metaverse gaming platforms, and many of the Web 2.0 technical giants, are waiting for a common set of Metaverse standards to be adopted before they re-platform their gaming and Metaverse technology decks. 🧵👇(3/15)

The Banana Rat expects in the end, there will be only one Metaverse. In the same way, we have only one internet and one common set of email protocols. -🍌🐀 🧵👇(4/15)

An Open Metaverse will allow for the creation of a set of common rules and ideals. These open standards will bring an interoperable set of rules and norms that will govern: "A Multiverse of Metaverses" -🍌🐀 🧵👇(5/15)

In an Open Metaverse, no one company will own, control or develop all the necessary technology architecture required to build or control the metaverse in its entirety. Pieces maybe, but not the whole Metaverse. 🧵👇(6/15)

The Open Metaverse will be built incrementally over time as the technology develops and interoperability standards are formalized. 🧵👇(7/15)

Gartner expects that by 2026, 25% of people will spend at least one hour a day in a developing Metaverse for work, shopping, education, social media, and/or entertainment. 🧵👇(8/15)

Why is this important? ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #openmetaverse #Metaverse 🧵👇(9/15)

An Open Metaverse with a common set of rules & protocols will allow for an infinite set of interconnected Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, and Shared Reality "Mini-Metaverses". Empowering the decentralization of user and community-owned assets. 🧵👇(10/15)

There is a lot of confusion around the definition of "The Metaverse". Gartner has one of the best definitions of the Metaverse that the Banana Rat has seen, and it is a good starting point for discussion purposes.🧵👇(11/15)

"A persistent & immersive digital environment of independent, yet interconnected networks that will use to-be-determined protocols for communications. It enables persistent, decentralized,collaborative, interoperable content that intersects with the world in real-time.” 🧵👇(12/15) 

Additionally, the Open Metaverse is a cooperative space, not a single monolithic environment. It will consist of many, independent but interoperable applications and experiences or "Mini-Metaverses". Companies like @oncyber and @HouseofKibaa are building this today. 🧵👇(13/15)

An Open Metaverse is only possible if we build it that way. This is why the approval of common open interoperability standards is so critical. "We build the open Metaverse, one piece at a time as a community."-🍌🐀 What are you doing to build The Open Metaverse? 🧵👇(14/15)
