Intro: This post started as a small comment to a reddit post of r/edwinbarnesc. https://www.reddit.com/r/edwinbarnesc/s/f3F1YFQ9yx
It got out of hand, now it’s a post. :) It even got longer after I copied it here. ;) Grab some fucking crayons and enjoy the foil / future outlook.

My theory about Gmerica & Teddy has been an amazon competitor with metaverse attached to it for some time now.
Look at the huge distribution centers of Gamestop, then look at the rest of Bbby / Butterfly, mix it with some Teddy book tinfoil and Cybercrew easter eggs and you get a metaverse and online shop to buy all the things with the fitting NFTs attached.
Certificate of ownership and Metaverse usability combined.
You buy new shoes? Why not wear them on your cyber clone, Kira or Nate or even your own Avatar custom built for you? Manage all of it with the easy to use Playr wallet. Just register with your email and connect it to your gmerica-Account to use your NFTs in every supported game.
Ready Player one anyone?
Those games are onboarded by ImmutableX right now and will be the next step in the gazillion USD Gaming market over the next months / years. That’s also the way to bring NFTs and the metaverse into mainstream. 3.09 Billion gamers worldwide. The next generation of customers won’t know any other way to buy stuff. Only the young.
Short delivery times and cheap fees in real life because of a shared distribution network for the brands that partner with Gmerica. Gamestop & Teddy Holdings / Bank provide payment via Fiat and crypto, a marketplace for the NFT assets and provide the infrastructure for a fast delivery for every partnering brand. Loopring red packets allow air drops as gifts for customers with minimal fees.
Just send out your promo-codes as NFTs and bring the customers to your metaverse store.
Welcome to the new world of Onlineshopping. No need for any brand to have their own shop anymore. Just let the customers walk through your 3D Metaverse store and shop digitaly instead of buggy web2 shops with 2D images.
Next steps for the coming years: Look at the Blackpaper of protocol gemini. Wearables to enhance reality with metaverse content and GPS data to create a digital layover in real time. You liked pokemon go? Think about “theming” the buildings of your city in your way to work. Or enter a real life shop, get all the product Infos in an overlay and get a discount because of your Promo-NFTs i your mobile wallet. Pay it on your phone and just take the item with you.
Throw in some Taiko with zkEVM and full Ethereum Blockchain functionality with just a small fraction of the gas fees. Settlement on a stock market has never been faster and smart contracts for financial transactions will be handled with the speed of light and stored forever on the blockchain.
Just one of the above mentioned things would be a several billion dollar entity. Welcome to Gmerica. Tomorrow we ride.
TLDR:
Just read it, it’s not that much.
