The term Metaverse first appears in Neal Stephenson’s 1992 novel Snow Crash.

In the years since it was published, the novel has become hugely influential in Silicon Valley, with Google co-founder Sergey Brin calling it one of his favourite books and executives at Meta often citing it when they talk about the potential for virtual worlds.
