Talking about the edge of the universe implies space is a thing. Physics works just fine if you imagine the x, y and z of particles describes an arbitrary set of coupled attributes on the particle itself. It is more likely that space is an emergent property of the entanglement between information, and in that case the idea of a boundary is nonsensical. Under that model, "spacetime" would behave like a foam - if one bit of it pulled far enough away from the rest it'd shoot off as a bubble.
