The Sandbox co-founder Sebastien Borget wants to defend the metaverse from Large Tech giants aiming to make a foray into the nascent market.

In a recent interview, Borget said that he is not very dandy on Big Tech companies such as Meta joining the metaverse. He explained further that major technology companies could threaten the decentralization of the metaverse as their business model goes against it.

The Sandbox co-founder went on to add that information technology's non about the competition, rather more about an open, decentralized future. Tech giants have a monopoly over Web 2.0, something Spider web 3.0 technologies, such as the metaverse and crypto, are trying to interruption. Borget explained:

"We don't think those companies can build something truly fun that'south catered to the users because they've been so focused on their key business organisation model and how to satisfy shareholders rather than satisfy users who ain the asset, who own the governance of their own platform."

Facebook rebranded itself as Meta to acknowledge its focus on the virtual world. The social media giant has shifted its focus to be the leading tech giant in the nascent virtual reality metaverse after a failed try at launching a universal stablecoin.
