We've seen a volatile market market this week but is the end of the run or just the beginning of the new cycle? On this week's episode of the Welcome to the Metaverse podcast, we talk about the state of the current market, previous cycles, the unexpected data for NFTs and cover some metaverse news stories, which went under the radar this week - including Meta and their new mixed reality headset and the return of Google AR glasses.
