Meta's acquisition of Manus marks a significant strategic move in the metaverse and Web3 landscape. The deal, valued at over $1 billion, signals major tech players' continued investment in immersive technologies and extended reality platforms. This acquisition reflects the growing convergence between traditional tech giants and the decentralized ecosystem, potentially accelerating innovation in virtual interaction protocols and spatial computing infrastructure. Industry observers view such capital-intensive moves as key indicators of where established platforms see long-term growth opportunities within emerging digital environments.

Spending big money on the metaverse again and again, is Meta truly convinced or just gambling?

Laughing out loud, Meta is pouring another billion in, is this to trap us in the metaverse or are they genuinely trying to make a move --- A billion dollars to buy a virtual glove? I’m thinking why not just give me ten billion in cash instead --- Big companies are throwing money into the metaverse one after another, and retail investors are still waiting for the next 100x coin. Everyone, please get ready mentally --- Web3 harvesting, metaverse taking over, I’ve seen this combo before, and in 2022 it almost landed me in the hospital --- Meta has started acquisitions, which shows there’s too much money with nowhere to go. Maybe retail investors should consider bottoming out... No, that’s not the right approach --- The virtual world is coming, but my wallet is even more virtual

Nah Meta spends 100 million just to try to take a bite of the Web3 cake; still dreaming too big...

According to data, Meta's $1 billion investment is indeed worth paying attention to — but the key question is whether the entry of traditional giants is just to harvest Web3. From three perspectives: First, the actual TVL contribution of this money is limited; second, the involvement of centralized forces often dilutes protocol governance; third, historical data shows that the "embrace" by big companies is usually just a prelude. A risk warning: don't be fooled by the funding amount, the real focus should be on the actual on-chain adoption rate.
