The concept of “metaverse” first appeared in Neal Stephenson’s 1992 science fiction novel “Snow Crash,” describing it as a reality shared by millions of users (Stephenson, 2003). Metaverse is a collaborative virtual space using the virtual and environment, created by the combination of the internet and virtual reality (VR), where users can interact and engage with each other and objects (Mozumder et al., 2022). It is a virtual world that allows users to create and explore their own digital identities and experiences and instantly connect with others (Tukur et al., 2024). It is a dynamic and evolving environment that provides new opportunities for discovery, creativity, and connection (Rillig et al., 2022; Allam et al., 2022).
