Will the Metaverse grow or will it flop?

$Meta Platforms(FB.US)$$Apple(AAPL.US)$$Metaverse(BK2567.US)$ What are your thoughts and opinions on the Metaverse FB, AAPL and some other companies intend on forming?

Do you see any potential for this to be the next disruptor of the way we communicate with one another? Or is it just some wonky idea that will flop and will be forgotten in a few years?

What are the main hurdles the Metaverse will have to overcome in order to gain mass adoption, disregarding technological ones, as those are pretty obvious. Zuckerberg claims he wants to reach 1B active users on the Metaverse. Seems a bit like a fairytale to me, that 1B people will interact with each using avatars while wearing VR sets, but hey, maybe I'm wrong.
