Metaverse Projects in 2022

2022, a year of innovation and creativity making noise in the digital world.

The metaverse have conquered the digital world in 2021, serving as a facilitator of social interaction, business, and recreation. They explode in popularity and their current timing suggests that they become a much larger part of our culture as the new year progresses.
See below the projects for 2022 in the metaverse:

Snap: running out

Snap, the company responsible for the Snapchat app, is also looking to become a reference in the metaverse. The company is avoiding using that word and has been improving its own projects without making too much noise, but it is increasingly ready to become a reference in the area.
