Guest speakers will come from Adobe, Animoca Brands, R\/GA, RLY Network, Second Life, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, among other organizations.<\/p>\n<p>The program\u2019s academic director, Prof. Kevin Werbach, said in a statement:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe metaverse is a significant and broad phenomenon that is still poorly understood. We hope to equip business leaders, consultants, and entrepreneurs with an understanding of the impending opportunities the metaverse brings.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The first cohort of students will begin Sept. 12 and will be expected to spend 8-10 hours a week on their studies, at a cost of $4,500. The school will accept payment in crypto, as it did last year for its online course\u201cEconomics of Blockchain and Digital Assets,\u201d which also ran for six weeks and cost $4,500. Wharton also operates the Stevens Center Blockchain Laboratory and offers a free introductory course on crypto and blockchain on the website Coursera.<\/p>\n<p>The University of Pennsylvania accepts donations in crypto as well, with a $10,000 minimum. Wharton received a $5 million donation in crypto in 2021, which it im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely converted into fiat. The Bitcoin (BTC) gift would be worth somewhat less than $2.5 million today. <\/p>\n<p>According to Wharton, the metaverse will be a $13 trillion market with 5 billion users by 2030. Wharton claimed to be the first Ivy League school to offer a course on the Metaverse. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
