Tinder: dating in the metaverse is the future
It seems that with the metaverse, traditional dates can be forgotten, with the new proposal that Tinder has for its investors.
Indeed, Math Group, the company that is also behind Hinge and OkCupid, announced their intentions to adhere to the trends of the new digital world.
As far as the metaverse is concerned, it could mean one of the first steps on the path of the total integration of the human being with the digital medium.
Tinder in the metaverse and what it would represent
Being one of the world's leading applications, regarding the dating environment, now they would seek to make another leap in quality in their service offer.
As they point out in their announcement, they would now seek to allow their users to function within virtual dates. In this way, they will be part of many more experiences with other people within the same application.
It will even be a way for users not only to find their lost love, but also to make new friends.
In short, the fact that Tinder joins the metaverse translates into a large number of possibilities for human interaction within a digital environment.
How would it be possible? You will "match" with your favorite avatar
In its statement, the company made special emphasis that the way to continue advancing is by adapting to emerging technological trends. One of the most recent, and the one that can be totally revolutionary, is the metaverse.
By the way, they indicated that in the coming years they hope to continue having the resources so that the validity of their products is as long as possible. To do this, they are directly focused on the development of new generation tools, which includes a dating metaverse.
Furthermore, it is not only important in terms of validity, but it would also represent a grotesque economic potential.
In other words, Tinder would offer a totally new ecosystem, completely revolutionizing the way online dating occurs. Being pioneers in the matter, it will allow them to collect an immense range of users with whom they would begin to establish the bases of the metaverse. In this regard, the leading dating company commented:
"This should offer us exciting opportunities and attract a new generation of digital users, and we believe we are well positioned to help lead dating and social discovery in that new world."
The most interesting thing is that people would have complete control over the customization of their avatars. In this sense, they will dress as they want and interact with the different elements that take place within a totally controlled environment.
For the metaverse, cryptocurrency is launched by Tinder
It should be remembered that it is information that has been around since last year, specifically during an online press conference. In it, they highlighted their intention to implement their own currency within the application.
As a consequence, the “Tinder Coin” was born , which is already being used in the Australian markets. Everything, with the aim that it can successfully pass the tests and go global as soon as possible.
Thanks to the fact that they can count on their own currency, it extends the number of services that the same company can offer virtually.
Also, given that they plan to integrate into the metaverse, the "Tinder Coin" would acquire greater utility by having endless possibilities. Therefore, it would influence its demand and supply, defining its price.
What would be the virtues of this new virtual ecosystem?
For Tinder, it is clear that the intention is to continue growing as an application, offering users new methods to discover and meet each other.
There is no doubt that, since their creation, they have totally changed the way personal relationships unfold. Therefore, keeping up with digital trends is just one way for people to continue to enjoy their services.
In the first instance, one of the virtues that this initiative is supposed to have is security.
This is because one of the most common practices within any dating application, beyond its security mechanisms, is catfishing. Basically, it consists of impersonating another person to attract the attention of a user, with the intention of organizing a physical meeting.
It is at this point where the user's security can be in danger, since most catfishs have bad intentions. It's also one of the main reasons people don't end up adopting dating apps as a traditional method of discovering people.
But, with the arrival of the metaverse, there is no doubt that it would completely change the landscape, and it is something that Tinder has in mind. In this regard, the same company highlights in DiarioBitcoin that:
"Like many in the tech realm, we believe the metaverse will be the next evolution after the move to mobile."
What it represents for the metaverse
More and more people are becoming familiar with this concept that, although it is not entirely modern, with new technologies it seems more possible than ever.
Having Meta as its standard-bearer, led by Mark Zuckerberg, the metaverse could completely change the interaction of human beings with their environment.
Therefore, the fact that dating applications such as Tinder have integration into this virtual ecosystem within their plans represents positives for the cause.
It would be one of the first steps to take for people to finish adapting to the new way of developing our interpersonal relationships. Even why not? To find our better half.
Likewise, the start-up of the metaverse is gaining much more followers, especially from highly prestigious technology companies. There is even talk that a certain Apple would seek to integrate, which would end up marking the reality of this concept.
Finally, it also represents an economic benefit, since it involves other concepts such as cryptocurrencies or NFTs, which are the current trend in ways of earning money.
