I want to start off by maybe asking you up a basic question because everyone on me,

I'm trying to get them into blockchain and crypto. So I get them matamask wallets and I had my

17 year old daughter in here. We had a 90 minute conversation just like this. And afterwards,

she got a metamask wallet. She got some ethereum. She got an NFT, which quite frankly,

Robbie made me the coolest dad in London for at least a week. Then my mom, she's 78 years old.

She lives in San Diego, California. She owns property. That's what she does for a living. She runs

some property. She's owned for like 30 years. Now she has a metamask wallet. She has ethereum.

She has some stablecoin. And I send her some chain link, you know, because she gave birth to me.

So I figured might as well give her some of that. But Robbie, when I try to explain the metaverse,

it's hard for my mom to kind of take that next step. And I was wondering, how would you explain it

to someone like my mom? I think people have seen Ready Player One. Maybe they've played Minecraft.

Maybe they've been in a messenger chat. But this is something different. So how would you explain

that to my mom or someone else that's new to this space? I think the easiest way to explain it is

to just think of the metaverse as, you know, it's a bit of an all-encompassing term like internet.

But the metaverse is really what we're now calling Web 3. It's the next version of the internet.

And the main difference is that, you know, 10, 20 years on, we have a couple of interesting

technologies. Number one, computing technology has gone through the roof. So, you know, we have

smartphones in our pockets that have processing power. We couldn't have dreamed of 20 years ago.

And more importantly, we now have blockchain. And what blockchain does is blockchain allows us

to have a secure economic underpinning to the internet. So basically what we had before was we had

the free internet as in everything is transacted for free. You download, you upload, etc. And it's

all free because there's no way to securely exchange value. And we came up with solutions which
