McKinsey also added that as much as 80% of all commerce could be affected by activities inside the metaverse. Then the firm said that learning, collaboration and development would mainly take place inside the metaverse. They expect that the average user of the internet would spend upto six hours everyday on experiences within the metaverse.
By just 2022 alone, upwards of $120 billion has made its way inside the metaverse. This is more than double of what the metaverse generated in 2021, which was around $57 million.
