An unforeseen acquisition happened in the crypto field. One of the worlds biggest investment bank and financial services provider JPMorgan obtained land in Decentraland and opened a lounge representing the bank in the metaverse.
Unfortunately, JPMorgan is not intended to provide its services via the branch for now. On the other hand, they don’t deny such a series of events in the future. Metaverses will need financial services such as mortgages, exchanges, wallet support, and traditional payments integration. In its turn, JPMorgan owns Onyx, a blockchain accelerator platform. Thus, they are indeed experienced.
“The success of building and scaling in the metaverse is dependent on having a robust and flexible financial ecosystem that will allow users to seamlessly connect between the physical and virtual worlds,” the company commented.
Inside the virtual building, you’ll find a tiger and a portrait of JPMorgan’s CEO Jamie Dimon. It’s interesting that the bank chose Decentraland instead of The Sandbox. While the first one is a pioneer of metaverses in the crypto world, the second tends to have quite active marketing collaborating with such popular culture icons as Warner Brothers, Snoop Dogg, Ubisoft, and others.
