Guide to the metaverse, Bitcoin, NFTs and Web3 launched by University of Salford experts

A new guide for business owners on the pros and cons of metaverses has been published by experts at the University of Salford.

The 170-page book explores the workings of the virtual world of metaverses and how these can help tech-minded companies in a secure way, as well as highlighting the risks involved.

It has been compiled by Umran Ali, John O’Hare and Allen Fairchild from the Greater Manchester Cyber Foundry after the trio began analysing blockchain, crypto-currencies, virtual and augmented reality, non-fungible tokens and other aspects of metaverses for a business which had approached them for technical help.
