The metaverse is offering a chance to create a world that is inclusive, ethical, and accessible. The evolution of technology points to a positive future: 88% of global consumers believe tech can make the world a better place, and 78% agree it can help create a more equitable society, according to a July 2021 survey by Wunderman Thompson Data.
Habits and beliefs from our physical lives are not only extending into the digital realm, but are becoming more significant, as users explore the potential to do better in the metaverse. “When you’re born, you don’t choose who you are, but in the virtual world you’re starting from scratch,” Sébastien Borget, cofounder of The Sandbox, told High Snobiety.
