The term "Metaverse”:
1. ‘meta’ meaning ‘virtual, transcendence’
2. ‘verse’ a backformation from ‘universe’.
The Acceleration Studies Foundation (ASF) classified the Metaverse into:
1. A virtual world that experiences a flawless virtual story.
2. A mirror world that reflects the current real world.
3. An augmented reality that shows a mixture of augmented information in the real world.
4. Life-logging, which captures and stores everyday information about people and things.
With the development of technology, the number of people who use the Metaverse increases, and as activities at the same level as reality are performed, various and a lot of data are being generated. Data generated in the metaverse has value in itself. In the Metaverse, the amount of data increases, the value increases, and the importance of reliability and security is increasing. Blockchain technology is required to guarantee the reliability of data in the Metaverse, and artificial intelligence is used to secure the diversity and rich content of the Metaverse. The contents will be developed in the following order.

The term “Metaverse” is a combination of ‘meta’ meaning ‘virtual, transcendence’ and ‘verse’ a backformation from ‘universe’. The Acceleration Studies Foundation (ASF), a non-profit technology research organization, classified the Metaverse into the following four categories: a virtual world that experiences a flawless virtual story, a mirror world that reflects the current real world, an augmented reality that shows a mixture of augmented information in the real world and life logging, which captures and stores everyday information about people and things [1].
