I’m Uğur, the founder of Metaverseplanet.net back in 2021, and my passion for the Metaverse has never faded. When the term first aired on a TV channel that year, the buzz around metaverse coins and virtual land ignited my imagination—and convinced me this new universe was real.
2021: The First Spark
- In 2021, the Metaverse exploded into the mainstream—tech keynote stages, social feeds, news bulletins all heralded the “future of the internet.”
- Metaverse coins, NFT land sales, and blockchains laid the foundation for an entirely new digital economy.
- Fueled by that excitement, I launched Metaverseplanet.net to document and share every development.
Period of Decline: Why Was It Pushed Aside?
As the years rolled on, the Metaverse concept seemed to slip into the background:
- Internet bandwidth and infrastructure fell short of delivering true real‑time VR/AR immersion.
- Major players pivoted toward Web3 or DeFi, shelving big Metaverse initiatives.
- The broader audience wasn’t quite ready—hardware costs remained high, and the use cases felt niche.
But I always believed this was only a temporary “pause.”
The Power of Hope: I Never Gave Up
- Media’s short attention spans may have reduced the headlines, but I kept Metaverseplanet.net alive with weekly updates, experiment reports, and prototype reviews.
- Even now, writing about these topics gives me that same electric thrill I felt in 2019.
Predictions for the Future
- 2025–2027: Affordable, ubiquitous AR glasses will become part of everyday life.
- 2028–2030: Virtual classrooms and digital offices will carry as much weight as their physical counterparts in education and business.
- 2030+: Blockchain‑based virtual lands will trade, rent, and appreciate just like real estate.
- Digital Twins: Our physical selves will have synchronized “twins” in the Metaverse, shaping health, travel, and cultural experiences first in the virtual realm.
- Community‑Centric Economy: Micro‑communities will launch their own tokens to organize around social and economic benefits.
Defying the passing years, the thought of publishing more Metaverse news and articles still sets my heart racing. I truly believe the line between physical and digital will vanish—and when it does, the Metaverse will become our new normal. As the Metaverseplanet.net community, we’re at the forefront of that journey.
The excitement continues—our adventure is far from over!
