How Will Meta Monetize The Metaverse?What do we know about the Metaverse? The Metaverse is a concept (for now). A concept that has motivated Facebook to change its branding to Meta and begin developing the infrastructure of a meta-universe. The drastic pivot that Facebook is attempting to pull off, the Company hopes, will put it at the forefront of the internet’s “next frontier”, just as it was a decade and a half ago when Social Media platforms were maturing. Facebook/Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has called the Metaverse an “embodied internet … where with just a pair of glasses, you will be able to step beyond the physical world… beyond the limits of distance and physics” and engage in rich people-centred experiences. A simulation of the Metaverse that Zuckerberg demonstrated last week showcased the potential of the platform. In the demo, a group of avatars met in a virtual room, played a hand of poker before being dazzled by a room-sized 3D artwork sent and paid for by A friend of Zuckerberg exploring New York (in real life). For all the altruistic CEO-speak regarding the Company’s mission to “Bring people together”, Facebook/ Meta will still have to monetize the Metaverse experience. Conquering the next frontier may have to coincide with a new method for generating revenue for the Company. How will Meta monetize the Metaverse? A legitimate question that exists is; how will Meta monetize the Metaverse? A model based on highly targeted advertising is what has worked for Facebook in the past. Facebook has reported US $54 billion in revenue so far in 2021, setting the Company on a path for another record year. In contrast, Facebook has booked a comparably paltry US $1.2 billion in revenue in the same time frame from its non-advertising revenue streams, such as the sale of Oculus headsets. Zuckerberg has maintained that Facebook would always remain free to use. Fortunately, the Metaverse is not yet hamstrung to such a proclamation. Meta should be exposed to more revenue-generating opportunities including, subscription models, hardware sales, ticketing, skins, gaming and pay-to-play models, and SaaS. It might be fair to say there will be a universe of options for Meta to explore. That’s not to say that Ads can’t be integrated with a metaverse, slotted tidily within the virtual landscape. Meta may even generate a more accurate understanding of their customer base through their metaverse experiences, boosting demand for its ads services as ads become hyper-targeted.

Decentraland MANA/USDT rally after Facebook rebrands to MetaOpened to the public in January 2020, Decentraland is an Ethereum-based virtual world, or metaverse, that is owned by its users and governed through a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Decentraland uses two tokens: MANA and LAND. MANA is an ERC-20 token that must be burned to acquire non-fungible ERC-721 LAND tokens. MANA tokens can also be used to pay for a range of avatars, wearables, names, and more on the Decentraland marketplace.

Coinbase 2021 DPO = Facebook 2012 IPOIdea: Coinbase = Facebook The first 6 months after Coinbase’s DPO reminds me of Facebook’s first 14 months after its 2012 IPO. The exponential increase over the last decade in the velocity of money and how it is exchanged in the markets seems to be a reason why a stock like Coinbase can do movements that previously took 14 months in just about 6 months. That’s 58% faster if we go along with exploring this idea. As of today, Coinbase’s chart looks like it has been emulating Facebook’s. If we take a look into Facebook’s all time chart we’ll come across some interesting technical “coincidences” when extrapolating the 3.618 Fib extensions. If we take the Fibonacci of the all time high of $44.62 and the all time low of $17.43 during the first 6 months of Facebook’s life we get a 3.618 extension of $118.33 that came into existence 4 years later. If we take that all time high of $118.33 and the all time low of $17.43 and we extrapolate and do another Fib extension, the 3.618 lands at $378.76; exactly where the bull run ended (as of today) for Facebook in September of this year. It took 5 years to get to that point from the previous 3.618 extension, but the path had already been drawn. If we extrapolate Coinbase’s potential 3.618 future extensions, we get $1,022 and $3,138. As of 2021, Coinbase sits at a market cap of $68.5 billion. In the banking industry, JPMorgan Chase sits at the #1 spot with $503.5 billion. If Coinbase gets to $3,138 (basically a 10x) that would mean that it would surpass JPMorgan and achieve a future market cap of $671 billion. If Coinbase does a memeish move similar to what Tesla did recently, where it basically took over the entire car industry’s market cap, who knows where it could go. I don’t think this will happen this year or anytime soon, but if it took Facebook 9 years to get close to a $1 trillion market cap, and we take into consideration the exponential change in the velocity of money, it wouldn’t be that inconceivable to think that Coinbase can reach that valuation 58% faster, or in other words, 4 years (or let’s say 5). What’s the likelihood of this scenario happening? Who knows really, but I think that it’s more probable than not. We can take the following into consideration: Coinbase hasn’t even started offering traditional stocks through its exchange. What will happen when/if retail gets the opportunity to trade stocks like Google and Apple through mirror synthetic tokens of their stocks? What will happen when/if Coinbase provides ROTH/IRA/Retirement products through their platform? What will happen when/if Coinbase integrates a social media platform? What if the future of the said Metaverse is not within Facebook but within Coinbase? What if businesses start generating more revenue through Coinbase sales funnels? Just food for thought. Thanks for reading if you got all the way here. *I’ve been diversifying my crypto profits into Coinbase stock since late April, from the $320s all the way down to the $210s. After June, every time it went over $260 I paused accumulating. Up till now, I’ve managed to average a $242 entry price. As of the moment, I’m in a hold position, and currently not buying. Wall Street has set a short term high sell target between $385-$600 and a low buy target between $160-$220. Only time will tell.

Facebook(Meta) history and bull caseI see the metaverse being a distraction for Facebook to try and leverage some of the negative media attention away from them for now. stock could have more downside all depends on how to respects the current downward channel. i ultimately see Facebook and metaverse becoming massive!! in 5 years time meta will start to become the next fad and craze that everyone is talking about! they're investing and building it as we speak and i see so many applications where this can be used, gaming, entertainment, educational to name a few. This is the next step in the internet and Facebook will be a huge leader. they have all the right ingredients. its down 30% from highs and in my opinion looking back historically its a good buy!

Facebook's Share Price Ready to Resume Climbing Higher The share price of Facebook has just completed a sizable correction, which now appears over. The dropdown rebounded from the 200-day MA (in orange). Given the better than expected earnings data for Q3 (which was posted yesterday), the uptrend would now likely be resumed. A breakout above the upper limit of the Descending Wedge pattern would signal the beginning of the new uptrend. The first potential barrier can be found at the 350.00 resistance. The latter is underpinned by the 100-day MA (in blue). The previous swing peak at 380.00 represents the secondary target.

Long FBP.E 333.26 S.L 302.55 T.P 395.57 In this analyse we can see how the movement of the FB stock is inside a channel, and now we are in a lower spot. Adding to this, the fundamental Analysis suggest us that FB is waiting for the quarterly earnings, that are in a good forecast today. For the technical analysis part we can see that we have a big volume in the pre-market inside. The two indicator with their convergence show that a change of trend is possible. However we aren't now to enter in the market but the volume that will be generate at the starts of the session of today can delete our position. BE CAREFULL no financial advise
