And the reason your retirement account could go down to zero? I’ve been warning readers about the REAL CAUSE behind this… [I explain everything in my video—you can click the image above to play it…]( [(Watch my short video now, before it’s taken down)]( Imagine you could go back to 1995, to the beginning of the Internet. Right before the birth of the largest companies in human history. What would you have done differently? How would you have invested your money? What strategies would you have used to determine the best investments? In less than 25 years, the Internet revolutionized the way we live, learn, and earn. And patient investors had the potential during this time to turn a small grubstake into an absolute fortune. History is rhyming. We’re at a similar crossroads now with the metaverse. Except, for many reasons, this opportunity is even bigger. And just like with the rise of the Internet… There are massive bottlenecks that must be solved before the metaverse is made possible. These bottlenecks just happen to be OUR biggest opportunities. 1.] Chip shortages: The metaverse is going to require a lot of advanced computer chips. Currently, no U.S. company can manufacture the most advanced leading edge chips used in smartphones, laptops, servers, supercomputers, gaming consoles and other products. Chip manufacturing is concentrated in Asia, mainly Taiwan — a geopolitically unstable region. 2.] Bandwidth shortages: A fully working virtual world, or even just a real-time, high-definition immersive experience, will require far, far more capacity to transmit resources between the consumer and network than is currently available in homes around the world. 3.] Hosting/storage: In order for the metaverse to run without any delays or lag, we need ways to draw other resources — hosting and storage — from underutilized areas to ramp up other parts of the metaverse seeing increased activity, and revert automatically when required. In short, the backbone of the metaverse needs to be resilient, flexible, and dynamic in the way that it uses resources. That’s not the way the Internet works today. Without question, the biggest bottlenecks today — whether it’s cloud computing, bandwidth, or storage — are centralized networks. In order for the metaverse to work, the fundamental architecture of the Internet will need to change. That’s where crypto comes in. Currently, crypto developers are solving these exact problems. One solution they’re using is “edge computing” — where every device on the network is incentivized to contribute to the security and resiliency of the network. Crypto edge computing is one of the biggest — and most crucial — trends in the metaverse. And, at the moment, nobody’s talking about it. Those who catch this trend early will have even BIGGER opportunities for profit in the coming months and years. But you have to act fast. Attention!

From there, it was adopted across the world at an unprecedented pace. Today, two tech trends are seeing faster adoption than the Internet in the ‘90s: crypto and online gaming. These are also two key components to the metaverse. In 2021, VISA moved $10.4 trillion in payments volume and Ethereum moved $11.6 trillion. That’s incredible given Ethereum was founded seven years ago and VISA was founded 64 years ago. Consider also… Roblox, a metaverse-style gaming platform, currently has over 150 million active players a month. And consider the growth of Fortnite. In the three years — from 2017 to 2020 — Fortnite went from zero players to 350 million. [IMG 1] Collectively, Fortnite players spend about 3 billion hours per month in Fortnite’s virtual world. The global online games industry is worth over $150 billion. Meanwhile, the entire movie industry is worth about $50 billion. In 2020, a championship for the popular game League of Legends was watched by over 44 million people. Compare that to the 7.5 million viewers of the NBA finals. Why does any of this matter? Because it reveals that the demand for the metaverse is already off the charts. And in order to meet that demand… we have to solve serious bottlenecks. As mentioned, the fundamental architecture of the Internet is going to have to change. The problem isn’t necessarily that there’s not enough bandwidth, storage, and cloud computing resources. The problem is that these resources aren’t being distributed in the most efficient manner. They’re all being run by centralized services that are relatively slow, inefficient, and vulnerable to attacks. The decentralized crypto networks that solve these problems — and become the backbone of the metaverse — could become tomorrow’s Google, Apple, and Amazon. Three Kings of the Metaverse During the past six months, we’ve identified three under-the-radar crypto projects that we believe could become the backbone of the metaverse. They help solve the problems of chip shortages, bandwidth crunch, and cloud computing fragilities. The technology behind these projects will allow billions of devices around the world to help power the metaverse. They will also help make the Internet more resilient, flexible, and dynamic. And given the metaverse is a multi-trillion dollar opportunity, these crypto projects could become the biggest companies in history. This is all part of our Early Stage Crypto Investor research. And if you want to take advantage of the current crypto dip (before these cryptos skyrocket)… and get in with a $512 credit (this credit expires at MIDNIGHT tonight)… Here’s what could be your last chance before these cryptos hit the mainstream.
