On Tuesday, February 15, JP Morgan opened what they call the “Onyx Lounge”  in the metaverse.

This is a virtual lounge within the blockchain-based world of Decentraland.

There have been numerous reports by users on Twitter who have experienced the Onyx lounge, where they noted that they saw a picture of CEO Jamie Dimon as well as a tiger lurking.

The company even published a paper where they explained the opportunities which will get explored by them within the metaverse.

Within this report, JP Morgan explains that they can operate as a bank within the virtual world, much like they do in the real world, given the fact that virtual worlds within the metaverse have their own population, GDP, and currencies.

In any case, this will boost the utility as well as usage of the Decentraland (MANA) cryptocurrency token, which will lead to an increase in its value.
