            ownership. On this website platform, businesses will buy
            “digital land” to display banner ads and advertisements.
            What exactly is its relationship to your data? It will be
            impossible  to  target  specific  users  or  create  a  target
            audience without using user data.



            DATA AND THE METAVERSE


            To appreciate how data will be used in the metaverse, it is
            necessary to first better understand what the metaverse
            is.  The goal of this  digital  environment is  to create  a
            virtual or augmented reality for consumers to experience
            in real time. In virtual worlds, users can work, shop, and
            entertain themselves in addition to conversing with one
            another.

            Let’s take a closer look at the role of data in the metaverse,
            as well as some current trends:



            THE STANDARDIZATION OF DATA


            Consider  OpenSea  or  Binance, two platforms that  sell
            non-fungible tokens (NFTs). NFTs will be discussed in
            greater detail in the next chapter. Contracts are formed
            in blockchain networks (also explained later) based on
            each token that is exchanged, sold, or minted.

            Businesses  that  have  access to market  data  such as
            trade volumes and floor prices can make more informed
            decisions about the launch of their new tokens or the
            user experience associated with these tokens.
