According to Kondoudis, the burger chain\u2019s application covers NFTs, blockchain software, cryptocurrency trading, and virtual restaurants.<\/p>\n<p>Global investment bank Goldman Sachs believes that the metaverse is an <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/goldman-sachs-metaverse-8-trillion-opportunity\/\">$8 trillion opportunity<\/a>.
