World GDP by 2035 is $200 Trillion
People will spend at least 4 hours or 25% of their waking hours in Metaverse (It'll be more, but I'm being conservative), at least $20 Trillion of human activity will occur in Metaverse (because bits are cheaper than atoms)
- chollida1 4y agoWell that is a thesis. I disagree with most of your thesis, though world gdp at $200T i do agree with. But I appreciate you trying to lay it out, i'd say metaverse spending will be less than 2% at that time. Most of the world wont' even be near the meta verse in 10 years.
- deltree7 4y agoThis is absolutely coming from a privileged view. Rich people who can take vacations, go to concerts, eat at restaurants, hang out with friends, afford to play golf, tennis and a decent home of course want to live in the real world. There are 7 Billion other people who would love to have that same experience even if it's virtual for the same price as a mobile phone.
- chollida1 4y agoI don’t think your view is all that privileged. I just simply disagree that poor people will spend money in any meaningful way in the meta verse. I mean think this through, you can’t even pay for the basics of life like food and shelter, and you’re going to dump 25% of your spending on the meta verse? I mean, I’m guessing you don’t yet have a family as once you do you’ll realize you’ll spend most of your money providing for them and not on virtual fun.
- deltree7 4y agoPoor will have the highest utility in the Metaverse, just like the internet.
- chollida1 4y agoBut far away the least amount of money to spend. Surely you can see that? it throws off your entire thesis. If in your dystopian future, after the necessities of life are taken care of and yo have no money how will any percent of GDP be spent in the metaverse
