All technological progress is based on the fantasy of science fiction writers.
An engineer or programmer can bring any concept to life. However, initially this concept must be created. This is what science fiction writers do. They invent those entities that are not yet in the material world.
And then engineers and programmers ask themselves the question - how to bring it to life?
The result is a technical solution!
Programmers are somewhat easier than engineers.
Engineers have more physical limitations. When you work with code, there are far fewer physical constraints.
Therefore, any, the most fantastic ideas can be realized in the virtual Metaverse.

Announcements are one thing, a working product is another. Years ago I've seen phone company showing predictions and even some basic alpha models of transparent phones that look like a piece of glass. So far it's still something we can see in the movies, not in stores. That's why I feel like they're ahead of time with the predictions of how popular metaverse will be.
That said, I'd love to use it, but in its target form, not the one available today that they were playing with on presentations. This is like pre-alpha stage.
yes, you are right, reality is good at crushing plans and showing us that some things are not so simple
but this is probably one of the biggest problems in terms of metaverse adoption, together with having more realistic graphics and adapting sensations to the virtual form
anyways it's nice to see even the big companies are working on solutions for that too
exciting and nefarious future at the same time
Yes, I would like to visit a casino in a functioning Metaverse!
It's like stepping into the reality of Star Wars. You can use any avatars for the game. For example, Darth Vader or a blue alien octopus from the planet Venus.
At the same time, virtual reality will be indistinguishable from real reality. Even smells can be imitated in the Metaverse. At the same time, virtual reality glasses are a dead end in the development of virtual and augmented reality.
Neural interfaces are necessary for the full functioning of the Metaverse. Neural interfaces will allow direct interaction with the consciousness of other people and the space of the Metaverse itself.
Your metaverse casino version looks amazing. Darth Vader playing blackjack or roulette in a casino seems funny
. Presenting Darth Vader as a living embodiment, despite the fact that virtual reality will be indistinguishable from reality, is now difficult, but it seems that the industry is gradually moving in this direction. If think about it, many things that are familiar to us now were once just someone's fantasies. <...>

So far this future is only on paper. I also want to try these technologies in gambling, but today there are too many unanswered questions about the regulation of metaverses offering gambling services to their users, so their widespread introduction may take more than a year.
Some large companies started out building their digital assets and had to give them up because of regulatory questions. It could be the same in the field of metaverse.

The gambling industry will always stay profitable, however, regulations will be stricter especially in poor countries, but in rich countries where most people can afford to gamble, they will just likely increase the taxes so the government will benefit from the industry. With the popularity of crypto gambling as well, it gives the regulators more opportunity to earn and the entire industry will grow as gambling across borders made possible and easy with cheap transaction cost.
Somehow, I agree with this because gambling is one big industry that can give many gambling companies a big profit, whether the gambling industry is in developing countries or rich countries.When the government increases the taxes, the gambling industry still grows because many new people are curious about the gambling games that will always give new things.
With the VR technologies that already happen, that can push the gambling industry to reach a new level that we did not imagine before to give more experience to many gamblers.
Many gambling companies build their business in many places, making people gamble to any place they want, which does not limit their country.
It's what they have been saying about metaverse where gamblers can walk around with thier avatar like it's the real world and meet gamblers in the metaverse and play together like the traditional casino. it's different from the futuristic movies we watch in Hollywood actaully but i guess blockchain had brought a different path for where we are.
if you think flying cars will be the next, you are far ahead because electric car seem stealing the stage.
The gambling industry has become larger than before and with the pandemic still happening again, it grows gambling popularity because people still use the internet to communicate.
While the next big thing is not coming yet to the gambling industry, we can still enjoy what we have now and just flow like water waiting for the new trend coming to the gambling industry.
Maybe our children will not have a chance to feel what we feel once the new technology in the gambling industry is invented because the situation is different.
Gambling regulations are imposed on gambling in general. There is no distinction whether a gambler is poor or not. If a gambling jackpot is to be heavily taxed, there would be no special treatment if the winner is a poor man.
It is also probably not correct to say that gambling is mostly for the rich people. Rich people may gamble in huge amounts because they are rich, but in my observation the number of poor gamblers are much higher than the number of rich gamblers.
Because, poor people have a lesser money and they will try to gamble to increase their wealth. It is wrong to discriminate poor people and why will the gambling company do it when they can maximize their income when both rich and poor people are going to play with them instead of only one.It is also probably not correct to say that gambling is mostly for the rich people. Rich people may gamble in huge amounts because they are rich, but in my observation the number of poor gamblers are much higher than the number of rich gamblers.
It is not a problem for the poor people to pay the tax as long as their winning is big because there will still be left for them and that is better than not getting anything at all. They are not giving money for nothing but the money that they gave are tax and taxes has their own usage. Not only the winner can benefit with it but all people living on his country.
Casinos are open to anyone who is an adult and has money, therefore it is not surprising if there are poor people who play gambling. Because
playing gambling does not require using large capital, even some gambling sites provide a welcome bonus when we first register on the site,
so we can gamble using the bonuses we get. The problem is that some poor people have wrong thoughts when gambling, they think gambling
can be a source of income and increase their wealth. Even though gambling is very high risk, because no matter how good the strategy we use,
in the end the casino always wins. Then regarding the problem of paying taxes that poor people have to pay when gambling, it's normal
in my opinion, as long as the tax imposed is reasonable. Because not only when gambling tax payments are enforced, in everyday life we also
have to pay taxes. Because developing countries must have large tax revenues, it will also be beneficial for the taxpayers themselves.
I am very interested in how the Metaverses will be created and developed. The main question is whether people are ready for total immersion in virtual reality? This is a very ambiguous question.
For example, free video calls are now ubiquitous. But people have not fully switched to video calling. Nowadays, people use different formats of communication. People write text messages, even though it seems to be an outdated way of communication.
And this healthy conservatism of people can slow down the process of introducing the Metaverse.
And along with them, the further evolution of online casinos and gambling may slow down...
The example you've given is because there are other means of communicating and we're in abundance of those communication apps and that's a good thing.For example, free video calls are now ubiquitous. But people have not fully switched to video calling. Nowadays, people use different formats of communication. People write text messages, even though it seems to be an outdated way of communication.

About the metaverse, it will be like the real world that has almost everything and depending on the developer if they're going to allow everything to be in it. But I'm almost certain that casinos won't be gone. Just look at most of the casual games that we play that looks like Metaverse, there's always a casino that's on it. We will see how it's going to be when a casino or any project that introduces it.
have you watched the facebook Keynote when he announces the name change for Meta and the new vision?
they're already working on a new technology that uses ray ban like glasses for immersion, instead of these huge and probably not so confortable VR sets.
only this change would already be a huge game changer.

I feel like this is going to become more common as better and cheaper VR sets are made. Zuckerberg with his metaverse vision is ahead of time. There's a lot of people who buy properties in virtual worlds but it's actually a kind of a future bet. They are hoping that one day this will become big, but the available hardware available sucks. It's heavy, expensive, not very natural to operate. When VR sets become light, like your normal glasses and you'll be able to use cameras to read your motions and face expressions instead of using buttons, gloves, or whatever, it will surely attract more people.

Online casinos are expected to become even more profitable in the future of online gaming from a business perspective is going to be very different from what we know now. Most importantly the industry will be more about fun and entertainment than money some gamblers had reservations about the safety of online casinos but technological advances have enabled online casinos to provide their sponsors with a safer gambling environment. If the government receives taxes properly there will be no restrictions on it.

I think the poor countries will be given consideration and they will put the regulations on the country where most people are rich and they are only securing their earnings with that kind of so-called regulations. We might not see the gambling industry spiking in the metaverse but it is assured that they will gonna be there as soon as they see a huge number of people going there. Makes me think that the rich will be more prone to this kind of entertainment because they can afford it and regulations are always behind them.
However, regardless of whether there is a metaverse or not, the majority of wealthy people are particularly susceptible to it because they can always afford it, in contrast to the poor, who usually only have enough money to gamble. However, when you only have a few dollars left, gambling becomes an even more attractive proposition. For regulations, I believe that only a few countries currently prohibit gambling, primarily due to religious beliefs in third world countries, which usually allow it as long as you obtain a permit because they are the number one payer of taxes, which could significantly benefit the economy in those countries.

But that is precisely the thing, what you are describing about countries raising taxes was effective when casinos needed a physical presence in the country, however now with the Internet you can reach people from all over the world, and if the jurisdiction in which the casino is registered tries to raise the taxes that they charge you then you can just change the jurisdiction in which the casino is located and pay less taxes without losing a single one of your client in the process, so it is not as if governments can do whatever they want as they did before to the gambling industry.
