The 7 Biggest Threats to Metaverse元宇宙面臨的七大威脅

烏梅什·庫爾米 張燕

Introduction

Virtual reality has been on everyones lips for the past few years， seeking a place to fit in. This year though， the number of conversations around the subject went through the roof， and focus suddenly shifted towards a new technology—Metaverse. The worlds first ecosystem powered by blockchain technology offers an entirely new way to interact with virtual worlds， anywhere in the world. Now， with all of the exciting developments already taking place on Metaverse， its important to figure out if we should be worried or not.

Its a distributed store of digital value， created by the collaboration of several participants. Though highly promising， its also a big target for hackers and scammers who want to plunder its ability to store， record， and distribute data. These threats are enormous in number， but luckily there are ways for developers to prevent them before they ruin the things you had hoped for.

From the internet to AI， blockchain， smartphones， and autonomous driving， there are a lot of emerging trends that we have witnessed and can see today but there are even bigger things up in the air that we cant see.

Now， without any further ado， heres a list of the biggest threats that take Metaverse by surprise.

1. Advanced technology required

Metaverse will be the first virtual world to support all types of virtual reality devices like head-mounted displays， mobile devices， PCs， and smartphones. It is a new way of building and sharing virtual worlds with more advanced technologies like artificial intelligence， 3D rendering， decentralized architecture， etc.

As the world gets more connected， it is not difficult to understand that a decentralized virtual world， such as Metaverse， will be required. The technology required for this virtual world is far beyond the reach of current technology.

2. Human relationship & society

It has the potential to destroy our friendships， family relationships， and make us more vulnerable to cyber-attacks. People will be free to create new identities in Metaverse， which will impact their existing relationships. A Metaverse identity can be used for cyberstalking and manipulation， which will cause severe damage to our relationships.

Because of its anonymity， it can devastate relationships and society. For example，

· If you disagree with someone in the Metaverse， you will never be able to find him/her in real life.

· If someone wishes to make their house a virtual world， they might easily form intimate relationships with other peoples avatars in that environment.F1379016-03FA-4B09-86C0-2D7E6DE14186

· If someone can hack into the system， they could take over everyones avatar and turn them into robots.

3. Addictions & health issues

The Metaverse is a virtual world where users can create their avatars and develop their skills. Some people may become addicted to this virtual world and spend hours immersed in it. They may also neglect their real life， which can cause health issues.

Metaverse is a virtual reality platform， which has huge potential to cause addiction and health issues. The VR headset that is being developed by Metaverse Foundation is equipped with advanced sensors， which will allow users to experi-ence virtual reality with a more realistic feeling. As the data gathered from the sensors will be analyzed and analyzed further， it can lead to serious health issues.

4. Hate speech & racism

Metaverse is a digital world that can be used to express ones thoughts， ideologies， and emotions. In this digital world， one can find many different types of ideologies and thoughts. They also hold opposing political ideas. One of the most controversial political ideologies is racism.

Some people may use it to promote racism and hate speech. The platform may become a place where individuals can go to share hateful messages， which can be harmful to society.

5. Privacy & security concerns

Privacy & security problem in Metaverse is a huge issue. Metaverses blockchain is highly decentralized， and anyone can access Metaverses blockchain. So， your private information is vulnerable to interception if not secured properly. It is important to keep your private information secure， as any data leaks can result in financial loss.

Metaverse has taken a lot of steps to protect users privacy and security by implementing advanced cryptography， data encryption， and biometric authentication. However， there are still some loopholes in Metaverse that can be exploited by hackers. It is advisable to keep your private keys safe at all times.

6. Affordability for everyone

Because of the high cost， the Metaverse is not accessible to the poor. The cost of accessing Metaverse is so high that it is out of reach for most people. The wealthy can afford to invest in Metaverse without difficulty， but the poor cannot.

7. Questions regarding utility & relevance

Google Glass was the first example of wearable technology. It was prohibitively expensive， and only a select few could afford it. The price of Google glasses was more than $1，000 which is also the cost of Metaverses main token. Metaverses token may also fail like Google Glasses， as there are no solid plans for the future of Metaverse and no clear vision for its growth.F1379016-03FA-4B09-86C0-2D7E6DE14186

When Google Glass was launched， it was a big success， but it was soon discontinued due to its relevance and poor quality of the product. Metaverse may also face the same fate as Google Glass.

Conclusion

Metaverse has faced a lot of criticisms in the past， but none of them have been able to stop its growth. Even though many different factors could threaten Metaverses future， it is still one of the most promising projects in the blockchain space today.

Metaverse is like the internet—pretty much everyone will be using it eventually. However， I dont expect any particular company to dominate the market.

引言

過去幾年來，虛擬現實一直被人們掛在嘴邊，一有機會就冒出來。而到了今年，圍繞這個主題的討論數量激增，焦點突然轉向一種新技術——元宇宙。作為世界上第一個以區塊鏈技術為動力的生態系統，元宇宙提供了一種與世界任何地方的虛擬世界互動的全新方式。現在，雖然元宇宙已經取得諸多令人振奮的進展，但我們須想清楚是否應當感到擔憂，這一點十分重要。

元宇宙是一個分布式存儲數字價值的體系，由多個參與者合作創建。它雖然擁有廣闊前景，但同時也是黑客和騙子覬覦的大目標，他們想掠奪它存儲、記錄和分發數據的能力。這樣的威脅數量巨大，所幸開發人員有辦法在您所希冀的一切被毀掉前阻止這些威脅發生。

從互聯網到人工智能、區塊鏈、智能手機，以及自動駕駛，我們已經見證且今天還可以目睹許多新趨勢的產生，但有一些尚不確定的更重大問題是我們看不到的。

現在閑話少敘，對元宇宙來說突如其來的最大威脅都有哪些，我們一起來看看。

1. 對先進技術的需求

元宇宙將會是第一個支持所有類型虛擬現實設備的虛擬世界，如頭戴式顯示器、移動設備、個人電腦和智能手機。它是一種利用人工智能、3D渲染、分散式架構等更先進技術構建和共享虛擬世界的新方式。

隨著這個世界越來越密切相聯，我們將需要一個如元宇宙這樣分散化的虛擬世界，這一點不難理解。而這個虛擬世界所需的技術遠遠超出了現有技術的范疇。

2. 人際關系與社會

它有可能破壞我們的友誼和家庭關系，使我們更容易受到網絡攻擊。人們在元宇宙中可以隨意創建新身份，這將影響他們現有的人際關系。元宇宙身份可以用于網絡跟蹤和操縱，這將對我們的人際關系造成嚴重損害。

由于其匿名特性，它有可能摧毀人際關系和社會。例如：

·如果你在元宇宙中反對某人，你絕對無法在實際生活中找到他/她。

·如果有人想把自己家變成一個虛擬世界，他們可能很容易在這個環境中與其他人的虛擬形象建立親密關系。

·如果有人能入侵系統，他們就可以接管每個人的虛擬形象并將其變成機器人。

3. 成癮及健康問題

元宇宙是一個虛擬世界，用戶可以在其中創建自己的虛擬形象并開發自己的技能。有些人可能會對這個虛擬世界產生依賴，并長時間沉浸其中。他們還可能忽視其現實生活，而這可能導致健康問題。

元宇宙是一個虛擬現實平臺，有極大的可能導致上癮和引起健康問題。元宇宙基金會正在開發的VR頭顯配備了先進的傳感器，令用戶能夠體驗更逼真的虛擬現實。隨著從傳感器收集來的數據被越來越深入地分析，它可能導致嚴重的健康問題。

4. 仇恨言論和種族主義

元宇宙是一個數字世界，可以用來傳達思想、意識形態和情感。在這個數字世界中，人們可以發現許多不同類型的意識形態和思想。他們也會持有相互對立的政治觀點。最具爭議的政治意識形態之一就是種族主義。

有些人可能會利用它宣揚種族主義和仇恨言論。這個平臺可能會變成個人分享仇恨信息的地方，因此貽害社會。

5. 隱私及安全隱患

隱私和安全問題是元宇宙中存在的一個巨大問題。元宇宙的區塊鏈高度分散，可供任何人訪問。因此，如果沒有得到妥善保護，私人信息很容易被截獲。保證私人信息安全非常重要，因為任何數據泄露都可能導致財務損失。

通過實施高級加密技術、數據加密和生物認證，元宇宙采取了很多步驟來保障用戶的隱私和安全。然而，元宇宙中仍然存在一些可能被黑客利用的漏洞。建議您始終嚴密保管密鑰。

6. 個人負擔能力

由于成本高昂，窮人無法使用元宇宙。進入元宇宙的成本非常之高，大部分人都難以企及。富人可以毫無困難地投資元宇宙，窮人就做不到了。

7. 實用性和現實意義問題

谷歌眼鏡是可穿戴技術的第一個實例。它的價格高得讓人望而卻步，只有極少數人負擔得起。一副谷歌眼鏡定價超過1000美元，這也是元宇宙主要代幣的價格。而元宇宙代幣可能也會像谷歌眼鏡一樣失敗，因為元宇宙的未來沒有切實的計劃，其發展前景也并不清晰。

谷歌眼鏡推出時取得了巨大成功，但由于缺乏現實意義和產品質量差，很快就停產了。元宇宙也可能面臨與谷歌眼鏡相同的命運。

結論

元宇宙一直以來面臨著大量批評，然而這些批評都沒能阻止其發展。即使有多種因素可能對元宇宙的未來構成威脅，它仍然是目前區塊鏈空間最具潛力的項目之一。

元宇宙就像互聯網，總有一天幾乎每個人都會用上它。不過，我預計不會有哪家公司主宰這個市場。F1379016-03FA-4B09-86C0-2D7E6DE14186
