Roblox (NYSE:RBLX) operates a metaverse gaming platform that offers users the ability to build and play simultaneously.

Roblox has seen strong improvements in recent quarters despite declining core bookings. In the third quarter, not only did bookings resume a strong growth trajectory, but daily active users also grew 24% year over year to an impressive 58.8 billion. Moreover, the bulls are optimistic about Roblox taking advantage of the rise of the metaverse industry, even if it takes several years before it becomes mainstream.

Although current market conditions have led them to scale back investments in this initiative, it remains a serious contender for the future of online dating.
