If companies want to get into the metaverse business, they first must master the "metaverse lingo." It's easy to get lost in translation, with dozens of brand-new mysterious acronyms (NFT, DAO, DeFi...) and business neologisms (mining, minting, dropping, burning...). What is/are, in your opinion, the main term/s entrepreneurs need to understand to separate the hype from the business reality of the metaverse?

For now, focusing on the terms that are being used in utility cases is essential to separate the business reality of the metaverse from the hype. Also is crucial to understand that as the metaverse progresses, many terms have become ambiguous. One of the obvious examples, in 2021, NFT meant collectible JPG minted in the blockchain network, but now it could mean Ticket, Credential, Virtual Land, Membership, etc. Thus, using specific terms and avoiding general/ambiguous terms is essential.
