Big changes. Blockchain as a software platform will evolve and become more secure for additional purposes across finance, accounting and project management. Most cryptocurrencies will fail or become part of the black markets of money laundering, criminal activities and scams.
An interesting question. There are only 21 million Bitcoins with almost 19 million mined so far, so about 2 million are left to be mined. As demand increases for a limited supply the price should increase. On the other hand, there is nothing of intrinsic value supporting increased valuation. While esteemed contributors on here point to the dollar as being similar, the dollar is backed by the full faith and credit of the US Government. Bitcoin ain't backed by shit.
Metaverse? I don't know anything about it yet. I'll need more information.
