If the reliability of the company’s commitment to future development is measured in economic investment, it is indisputable that Metaverse is even more important than your presentations and statements already suggest. We’ve seen progress in this direction recently, from the release of the surprising but risky Meta Quest Pro to the long-awaited update that finally gives avatars legs. Welcome? It’s still somewhat cold, from the company’s own employees to Apple’s CEO, which isn’t the first time he’s spoken out in this regard, expectations are still below the company’s plans today.

This situation can improve and a clear example of this is the recently announced cooperation why Microsoft is joining the Metaverse project. If more technology companies decide to join this platform (don’t count on Apple in any case, as they will undoubtedly opt for their own ecosystem, probably closed and exclusive), their chances of increasing user interest will increase substantially. However, we can’t ignore the fact that the interest that virtual reality has generated in general has never taken off, despite successive attempts by the companies involved.

Now, as I said at the beginning, the one who put all the meat on the grill is of course Meta, since this is her plan for the future, even if it doesn’t seem to be as transparent a plan as it should be. And this is how we can read in Yahoo! Finance, Meta would have already invested $15,000 million in Metaverse. A bet that, as I said, seems clearly decided, but falters on an important point, namely that the company’s shareholders do not seem to know what these investments are being made for, which, according to the mentioned publication, is of some concern. between them.

The bulk of these investments have been made in Reality Labs, a company created by Meta to develop Metaverse, which can’t be argued against, but the lack of transparency becomes more of a problem when considering the volume of investmentadded to the still embryonic situation of the platform.

«The problem is that they are spending money, but transparency with investors has been a disaster,” says Dan Ives, technology analyst at Wedbush Securities, who added:That remains a long shot from Zuckerberg and team, as they are betting on the future for now while continuing to hit massive obstacles in their core business.“. An even worse allegation because it focuses on the fact that interest in Metaverse may have distracted executives from other areas of the company’s business.
