JPMorgan is a big believer in the metaverse, becoming the first bank to open an office it in.
The metaverse refers to the convergence of virtual, augmented, and in-person reality. The entire tech industry seems to be pivoting toward it, with Facebook even changing its name to Meta to better position itself to lead the way.
JPMorgan appears to also be going all-in on the metaverse, becoming the first bank to open offices in it.
