The Interoperable Metaverse

The Metaverse is in flux, a gargantuan monster barely out of the philosophical and technological constraints of web 2.0. There are no universal protocols, no blueprint outlining the course on which we should all be heading, collectively. What is agreed is The Metaverse will change the human experience for billions. Finance, culture, gaming, and entertainment all wound up in a digital society of creative, personal, and economic freedom. A single, connected world; the fusion of reality with the technological, the social, and the digital. 3D worlds of never-ending beauty and interaction. With such hyperbole comes great responsibility.

What is the meaning of an Interoperable Metaverse?

Many are still getting their heads around the term Metaverse (read our introduction here), it could seem overly complex to add interoperability to the mix. Without getting dragged down in the cross-chain protocols, blockchain bridges, and mind-bending language and programs employed to make the Metaverse interoperable, we’ll instead look at why games, platforms, and the public should be striving for it. And the best way to do that is through the lens of video games.

The Interoperable Metaverse for gamers: Interoperability in the Metaverse is a story of continuity. Gamers are tired of having their time, energy, resources, and endeavor chained to a handful of closed game engines and platforms. In the interoperable Metaverse, you, as a gamer, have the ability to take your in-game assets with you, across borders, blockchains, and games; to have the choice to continue the story of your Metaverse outside of any imposed walled gardens in which it could begin. Game to game, platform to platform, Metaverse to Metaverse. An interoperable Metaverse makes this movement of assets frictionless, effortless, and standard.

In An Interoperable Metaverse Your Time And Assets Are Yours: In a world that moves, digital assets should move; swords, cars, shields, powerups, weapons, armor, whole worlds. Time and money invested in one part of the interoperable Metaverse have value in another part of the Metaverse. In other words, spend two months of your life battling in game ‘A’, then take your weapons, shields, power-ups, and friends into game ‘B’.

But what if game ‘B’ is a racing game and game ‘A’ is an intergalactic space operatic RPG? Traditionally, finishing a game meant the end of the line. Your time investment vanished into the ether, your weapons, shields, crystal balls, or tent pegs left to gather dust in an in-game wallet or rucksack. In an interoperable Metaverse, this doesn’t happen. In fact, the opposite occurs. Interoperable means anti-fragile. Rather than diminishing to zero, on completion your items increase in value: you sell them on the open marketplace to other gamers.

The Choice is yours: Let’s get one thing clear, just because you play games and write and draw and create and have hobbies and socialize and collect, doesn’t mean you have to make money from them. You don’t have to monetize everything in some kind of capitalist dystopian future of clicking for crypto, an interoperable Metaverse doesn’t mean this, it means you have a choice.

Beyond the fun of gaming, the same interoperable philosophy applies. Companies, schools, governments, and individuals must have the option to move real estate, assets, and money across blockchains, across platforms. Once again, interoperability is about continuity, about moving from one point in your life to the next, without being forced to leave your belongings behind. Time is precious, and an interoperable Metaverse gives value to that time.

The Metaverse Passport in the Interoperable Metaverse

Front and center is the interoperable Metaverse will be your Metaverse Passport. The ever-present digital incarnation of you. This passport will be your asset custodian, the cross-chain communication device to which all of your tokens, assets, and experiences are connected. Where your Metaverse Passport goes, your NFTS go, and as such, your value. Connected, universal. No walled gardens, no logins. Permissionless, portable, everywhere.

The Interoperable Metaverse for creators: As a Creator the interoperable Metaverse allows you to cast aside the constraints of platform, blockchain and choice of cryptocurrency, freeing your creativity to build the next play-to-earn game, art, characters and worlds. An interoperable Metaverse opens up another source of monetization, royalties, and financial opportunity.

When Grayscale values the Metaverse at a trillion, investors take notice. Advertising, global events, e-commerce on a scale never before seen, the rewiring of the financial institutions. When the Metaverse is interoperable, all of these monetization channels will be infinitely more accessible and profitable.
