Hitekno.com – Not too long ago, matters related to metaverse become something interesting, especially among millennials.
How not, in this real world that is getting more and more hectic, we are given dreams about beauty virtual world by Mark Zuckerberg.
Just imagine, it is said that everything you do in the real world you can do in the world virtual.
The popularity of the metaverse soared after the top singer of the United States, Justin Bieber, held his first concert in the metaverse.
The concept of this concert combines gaming technology, real time motion capture, and live musical performance.
In the concert, JB transformed into a digital avatar and performed a full live performance.
The audience does not need to leave the house, they only need to buy tickets and then prepare a headset, computer and internet connection to be able to join this concert.
In addition to the concert, it turns out that there is another strange thing related to the metaverse, namely the question of virtual funeral. Here are things you need to know about burial virtual metaverse.
Who was the initiator?
The idea of a virtual funeral was initiated by a group called Remember. Reportedly, they were inspired by a virtual funeral by several gamers whose friends died in 2020.
The group is not kidding about the idea, because so far they have sold at least 5000 tombstones in the form of NFT (non-fungible tokens).
Where to buy this tombstone?
The group does not yet have its own site to sell the virtual tombstones. If you want to buy it, you have to visit a marketplace called OpenSea.
There you will be given a choice of a number of virtual tombstones that will be used on the day of your funeral.
The price of this virtual tombstone is only 800 dollars or around Rp. 11.3 million. Interested in buying?
Not just a tombstone
One thing you need to know about the tombstones sold by the Remember group. The tombstone is not just a tombstone like in the real world.
According to Remember, “each Tombstone doubles as a key to a personal monument.
In the monument stored memories of people who died. Starting from text, images, videos, sounds, 3D items, and more,”.
No tombstone yet
Even though Remember has claimed that 5,000 of his tombstones have been sold, in reality, the NFT-shaped stone doesn’t exist yet.
Remember will use the proceeds from this sale to purchase real estate across a number of metaverse platforms, including The Sandbox and Decentraland.
Those are a few things you need to know about virtual burial ideas in the metaverse.
