Metaverse JPMorgan

By Mark Murdock

JPMorgan, the cea mai mare bank in the US ($3.29 trillion in assets), opened up a metaverse branch yesterday. “The Onyx by J.P. Morgan Lounge” is named after JPMorgan’s crypto unit and is located in Decentraland, the play-to-earn virtual reality game.

The firm’s Decentraland location is sparsely decorated at the moment. Users who arrive at The Onyx (here’s a legătură to take you directly there) are immediately greeted with a portrait of CEO Jamie Dimon in what appears to be a lobby. On the left wall is a timeline of JPMorgan’s blockchain history. And, well, maybe it was just during my visit, but there seems to be a pet tiger pacing the foyer. Once upstairs, Decentraland users are greeted with three virtual analysts, who explain topics like DeFi and the history of JPMorgan’s blockchain projects from the virtual TVs attached to the virtual wall. 

In addition to unveiling The Onyx, JPMorgan also dropped an 18-page research raportează on the metaverse to “help clients cut through the noise and highlight what we would love to see built or scaled next in commercial infrastructure, tech, privacy & identity, workforce, and social governance,” a explicat Christine Moy, JPMorgan’s head of crypto and the metaverse.

In its report, JPMorgan revealed a bullish outlook for the metaverse – and its place in it. “We believe the existing virtual gaming landscape (each virtual world with its own population, GDP, in-game currency and digital assets) has elements that parallel the existing global economy. This is where our long-standing core competencies in crossborder payments, foreign exchange, financial assets creation, trading and safekeeping, in addition to our at-scale consumer foothold, can play a major role in the metaverse,” wrote the JPMorgan crypto team.

JPMorgan’s conclusion was not with qualifiers, as the firm believes it will be difficult to create business strategies in such a quickly evolving space. “The components of the metaverse continue to evolve very quickly. It is difficult to base a business strategy on such a dynamic space, characterized by explosive growth and the continuous innovation of new entrants.”

The bank, however, concludes that any difficulty keeping up with trends will most likely be well worth the costs. “Risks of engaging early and consistently in order to build internal intellectual property, develop hypotheses about future business models, and identify ecosystem partners and collaborators are relatively low. The asymmetrical risk of being left behind is worth the incremental investment needed to get started and to explore this new digital landscape for yourself.”
