Apple is a leading name in the IT sector and when it announces a new product launch, cash registers are bound to ring. This time around, however, the launch of Apple’s new Virtual Reality headset has created a buzz in Metaverse, a virtual immersive universe.

Virtual Reality (VR) tokens are like cryptocurrencies meant to be exchanged in the virtual world. The value of these tokens fluctuates depending on market perceptions and Apple’s latest launch has given them a positive momentum.

Apple is way ahead of its competitors when it comes to virtual and augmented reality. While the VR headset would be offered for sale in the last quarter of the year, it is already creating a buzz.

Here’s what reports state –

• In cryptocurrency, the VR sector has shown a one-day growth of 7.9%
• Apple’s share prices have surged by 7.4% over 14 days
• Decentraland, the biggest VR token, has registered a growth of 5.4% within 24 hours
• The 5D Metaverse project called Wilder World was the top gainer in the sector. It witnessed a price rise of 18.8% over 24 hours and 119% over the last month
• Over the last day, Metaverse tokens have grown to a market capitalisation of $8.65 billion

What should you do?

Metaverse can be the next big thing in virtual reality and Apple’s headset would allow you to experience the immersive world up, close and personal. With the boom in VR tokens, you can buy them through leading cryptocurrency exchanges operating in India.

Alternatively, you can invest in Metaverse companies, i.e., companies that either operate in Metaverse or aid in its development and usage. Apple is a leading name followed by Google, Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta and more.

Adding these companies to your portfolio would give you two primary benefits –

• One, you will be able to diversify your portfolio across geographies
• Two, you can benefit from the growth of the company’s stocks as Metaverse and VR tokens grow.

Investing in Metaverse companies 

If you want to invest in Metaverse stocks, not tokens, you can invest through brokers tied-up with international brokers. Alternatively, you can open a Demat account with an international broker and trade in these international stocks.
