The concept descriptions of Web3 and metauniverse are similar, which makes many people think that they are the same. In fact, they are two different concepts. So what is the relationship between Web3 and the metauniverse? What is the difference?

First of all, it is necessary to clarify the grand concept of the meta universe as a "universe". The meta universe does not refer to a technology or an industry, but a huge social and economic system or a virtual world. However, it is not easy to build a virtual world. Therefore, at present, many meta universe related projects are still in the stage of concept speculation.

So, what should be the real form of the meta universe? Tim Sweeney, CEO of Epic Games, a well-known game developer, said that metauniverse will be an unprecedented large-scale participatory media, and all users can participate, create, share and profit from it. Metauniverse is not equal to virtual space, virtual game and virtual platform. It will not be controlled by only one company. Users' digital avatars can freely shuttle between different platforms. Everyone will have their own common identity and wallet.

The concept of Web3 is that, for example, people can use virtual images to buy clothes in Amazon's virtual store, and then wear the clothes to buy tickets in Disney's virtual Park, and then transfer the playing records to virtual social media. In this process, people do not need to register different accounts on each platform, do not need to use different settlement methods, and do not need any third-party verification. All data will be recorded in the same digital identity account. The idea of Web3 is to create a more democratic Internet. No entity can control the information flow, and the network will not be damaged because the person who owns the hardware ownership can "unplug". Theoretically, the server, system and network where the application in Web3 runs, as well as the place where the data is stored, will be owned by the user himself. The user votes to decide the rules and regulations of the network.

Metauniverse is a virtual world, while Web3 is a concept or vision. The concept of meta universe comes down in one continuous line with web 3, which is the cornerstone of the continuous operation of meta universe. Metauniverse has several important elements: distributed database, encryption technology, edge computing and other underlying technologies. With the maturity of these technologies, we can say that the era of web 3 is coming. Finally, the above technologies, together with display technology (ar/vr) and artificial intelligence, can be said that the meta universe has been completed.

One reason why the two are often confused is that they do intersect in some very important aspects. The technologies used to build Web3, including blockchain and blockchain based crypto, such as bitcoin, Ethereum, and NFT, have a great impact on the way we use and experience the virtual world in work, entertainment, social networking, and learning.
