It looks like Zuckerberg is hitting the brakes on his metaverse plans. Budget cuts are on the agenda.

What does this move mean for the industry? Meta pulling back its massive investments could be a sign that the metaverse hype is cooling down. Or is it just a strategic repositioning?

From the perspective of the Web3 and NFT ecosystem, such corporate retreats could actually create room for decentralized projects. As big companies pull out, community-driven metaverse projects may come to the forefront.

Haha, has Meta given up? What happened to the promised metaverse? Big companies leaving is actually a good opportunity. Real Web3 projects should be ready to take off now. It's all those NFT scammers' fault for ruining the atmosphere.

I'm numb, Meta is getting stingy again --- To be honest, the retreat of big companies is actually good news for small projects --- Zuck's move this time is pure surrender, is the metaverse really done for? --- Wait, isn't this just making room for decentralized projects? --- The dream of the virtual world is shattered, where's the next big opportunity? --- Instead of burning money on the metaverse, it's better to pivot and recover --- Community-driven projects might really make a comeback, but only if someone is willing to take over

Ha, Meta is admitting defeat. We've finally waited for this day; when the big companies pull out, it's our opportunity. Small projects, charge ahead—the era of decentralization has arrived. To put it plainly, burning money can't buy the future after all. A community-driven metaverse is the real way forward. If you disagree, let's debate.

Oh no, Meta is tightening its belt again. Is the metaverse dream shattered? Or is it really just a tactical adjustment? This actually gives smaller decentralized projects a chance.

Meta really can’t play this round anymore. No more hype, the era of decentralization has arrived. Big companies are pulling out, do smaller projects actually have a chance? Doesn’t seem that simple. When the hype fades, isn’t that the time to buy? By the way, how much longer is Zuck going to keep chasing his metaverse dream...

Meta chickened out this time, hype really died down. NGL, Zuck slashing the budget only shows that the metaverse thing is a flop. Big companies pulling out is actually our opportunity—the time has come for distributed projects to take off. Yet another hyped-up concept, but as soon as they can't invest anymore, they pull back. The real Web3 revival will have to wait until the big institutions get out.
