If they do, then most likely the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will come down hard on the token and the company (just like they did with Ripple).

The term includes a wide range of virtual realities, including workplace tools to games and community platforms. Interestingly, the term 'metaverse' was coined way back in 1992, when the US-based author Neal Stephenson used this word in his 1992 science-fiction novel 'Snow 'Crash,' which envisions a virtual reality-based successor to the internet.

Bitcoin crossed a major milestone in September 2021, when it became a legal tender for El Salvador. Although this move was condemned by financial regulators, the country’s GDP grew. This was a major development for Bitcoin as many countries considered El Salvador as an experiment and it seems like the Central African Republic has seen enough to follow the trend setter.
