#meta digital wallet

Meta CEO and founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg on Wednesday has announced his new ventures for the Metaverse starting with a rebrand of Facebook Pay to Meta Pay and eventually, a metaverse digital wallet. Zuckerberg says he envisions a future when Meta Pay will serve as a universal wallet for all the digital items to buy or create across the metaverse. He also emphasized how the company’s metaverse wallet will enable proof of digital ownership, especially if users want to take some of the digital goods across other services. The metaverse wallet sounded a lot like crypto wallets that hold NFTs, although Zuckerberg’s post did not mention blockchain technology at all. However, that interoperability hasn’t stopped Meta from selling digital goods in the meantime. Samsung has introduced a new Digital Home Key feature in Samsung Wallet that allows Samsung Galaxy users to unlock compatible smart door locks using their smartphones. It expands Samsung Wallet’s digital key system, which was previously used mainly for cars, to now include home door locks. After setup, the digital key can be added to Samsung Wallet during the lock’s onboarding process.
