The text “Metaverse Law: NFTs, DeFi, GameFi, and Privacy“, is the first Italian publication on the legal and techno-economic aspects of this true technological revolution called the metaverse.
The metaverse is the basis of a profound rethinking of the way we access the internet and is the basis of the "gamble" made by the main existing social network: Meta, formerly known as Facebook.
The text first analyzes the impact of immersive reality on existing legal institutions, starting with the case law and news stories that have emerged in recent months abroad, from the United States to China. It then moves on to a comparison with the relevant Italian institutions, from intellectual property to criminal law, and finally addresses the specific issue of personal data processing. The text then focuses on the technical and economic aspects of the metaverse and the institutions underlying this world.
The methods of avatar interaction in the metaverse are analyzed, explaining in detail how virtual "currencies" work and the legal and economic value of so-called tokens, whether fungible or non-fungible. The text further explores the aspects of decentralized finance and its interrelationship with existing regulatory frameworks, along with national and EU regulatory developments regarding digital finance.
