3/ The threads that tie all of these divergent concepts together are humans and real, substantive relationships: the communication layer.
When we apply digital ownership to the communication layer, more durable networks form, and infrastructure for new relationships is created.

1/ The correct headline should be how Asia the worlds largest market for gaming is taking the lead from the west in #blockchain #NFTs #gaming because Western Gamers won't let their companies enter #blockchaingames a 🧵👇 the #nft hate is predominantly a US/western gamer issue
2/ Studios like @SquareEnix a @sandbox @animocabrands investor and Krafton the creators of @PUBG (and +others) are making major moves into #NFT #blockchain games, asian gamers welcome the innovation as they appreciate the benefits

3/ Last year many of the largest game companies like @EA were presenting #blockchain #play&earn and #NFTs as the future of the game industry. The assessment is correct but unlike their asian counterparts are unable to venture into the space - for now

1/ A thread on how we think of the state of the #NFT market (tldr; its growing and hardly "dead") infact from August to September volume of transactions has grown by over 30% - what's changed? 👇🧵
2/ Transaction volume of #NFT trading as compared to the peak is down in value due to price drops of @ethereum and average price but volume is back to March/April levels and recovering cryptoslam.io/nftglobal
3/ Floor prices of major NFT collections like @BoredApeYC are still hovering around 83 eth the difference is that $eth today is 3x lower in terms of USD value as compared to April opensea.io/collection/bor…
1/ #blockchaingaming is here to stay .@AxieInfinity has trailblazed #playandearn #nftgames, but it’s also a natural target for anyone against #NFTs and #web3 #blockchain games. This hostility is unwarranted, unfair and often without the benefit of facts and context.
🧵👇
🧵👇
2/ .@AxieInfinity remains one of the most played #NFT games in the world with the following metrics:
771,000 monthly-active on-chain users
370,000 weekly-active on-chain users
2.3 million Axie holders
4 million Ronin wallet downloads $AXS $RON #blockchaingames

3/ The financial strength of @AxieInfinity is starkly evident, with current FDV close to $4B (it listed at $27M). It not only weathered a major hack but also repaid all losses to affected players, a testament to its durability and care for the community. roninblockchain.substack.com/p/the-ronin-br…
1/ @Microsoft @Minecraft has just revealed that it will exclude anyone, without notice & due process, simply if they disagree with them and that they too operate as a digital dictatorship changing their terms of service on a whim washingtonpost.com/video-games/20…
2/ #minecraft has directly caused pain and suffering to an innocent & blameless minority who was purged and cleansed without regard to their circumstances and without advance notice causing at least >$100m in damages coindesk.com/business/2022/… (we have no stake in @nftworlds)
3/ @Minecraft has provided no evidence that operating #NFTs are harmful to their community given that a vast majority of all players are not engaged in any #blockchain version. Previous term did not disallow #NFT or #blockchain implementations of #minecraft have existed before

2) The #metaverse represents a potentially limitless digital future, where much of what we love will reside. But, with a handful of companies monopolizing our current #Web2 experience, the threat of corporate control of #Web3 is ever-present.

I’m a proud and grateful @BoredApeYC member since June ’21. I’m impressed by how @yugalabs keeps on delivering ever since. 🦍🚀
But I’m even more impressed by a player somehow very few have on their radar. Let’s dive into @flufworld built by @NonFungibleLabs. 🧵
But I’m even more impressed by a player somehow very few have on their radar. Let’s dive into @flufworld built by @NonFungibleLabs. 🧵
Let’s start with the “Why?”. The NZ based McDonald brothers (@aaronmcdnz, @dmcd_nz, @JeffIYPK) have been building a whole #Metaverse ecosystem for years & it gets revealed piece by piece. Their approach is unique. But it’s not only about their own world.
Their #OpenMetaverse Manifesto tries to get everyone to the table and work together on this vision. When I say everyone, I mean everyone. They have reached out to all the big #Metaverse worlds that are around right now to push towards truly interoperable virtual worlds.
1/ Proud and humbled to announce @animocabrands raising US$358,888,888 in a round led by @LCVentures with investors kingsway @tyler @cameron @Gemini @georgesoros @sequoia @paraficapital @smilegroup_in and many more #openmetaverse frens for details a 🧵👇coindesk.com/business/2022/…
2/ Our vision is to help build and construct the #openmetaverse based on important concepts such as openness, equity, digital property rights, and a nonzero-sum approach where users become citizens with actual ownership and rights #NFTs #blockchain forbes.com/sites/justinbi…
3/ The threat to building a #metaverse that is owned by a majority interest comes from those that want to build a closed metaverse who already have control of all our data and are monetizing off the data that we gave up for free decrypt.co/84043/facebook…
1/ This has been the mission of @animocabrands to deliver true digital property rights which #NFTs make possible since 2018. To elaborate on just why property rights are so important to the construction of any society (including the #openmetaverse) a🧵👇
2/ Property rights means you have the ability to truly own your assets and are free to do as you please, a concept that was not truly possible in the digital world before something we discussed on @CNBCi earlier this year #NFTs
3/ Gamers already spend billions of dollars on virtual goods they do not own and the implications for delivery true digital property rights to gamers is one of the main reasons we focused on #gaming with #NFTs so early on ysiu.medium.com/on-delivering-…
1/ In Q1 of this year we began the $TOWER experiment and its a good time to have a year-end assessment/reflection now with @CrazyDefenseEN enjoying 3x growth & sessions, massive increase in retention and significant growth in installs/revenue powered by #blockchain #nft
2/ It was dubbed the $TOWER experiment because its tower defense and we wanted to blend F2P gaming with #blockchain and ultimately #playtoearn read our original post on the matter medium.com/tower-token/th…
3/ $TOWER could only be earned by playing the game, had no investor raise and was a completely fair launch medium.com/tower-token/to… and was priced at $0.001 it was truly experimental for its time (currently at about $0.06)
1/ .@animocabrands is proud to announce our financial results for the first 3 quarters of the year with income at approx. $530m and bookings of $140m with around $600m in liquid crypto (we have some fiat too) ysiu.medium.com/founders-lette…
2/ By November thanks to some incredible activity in many of our tokens including $SAND $REVV $TOWER $QUIDD $PROS $LMT $BONDLY $GMEE $DOSE $AXS $FLOW $SUPER $WILD $YGG $SPS $UMAD $WILD $BLOK and many others our crypto reserves stood at almost $16 billion animocabrands.com/animoca-brands…
3/ These results demonstrate the potential of what the #openmetaverse can truly represent considering where this industry was just one year ago and we consider this still just the beginning! forkast.news/atari-yat-siu-…
1/ Meta formerly known as Facebook today is to the #Metaverse what the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea) is to democracy. The real metaverse is open has true digital data ownership and is governed by a majority interest i.e. its users decrypt.co/84043/facebook…
2/ Facebook commands the attention of 2.89 billion users but because they own all our data it is today the complete opposite to what a truly interoperable and open metaverse should be. They are the new Digital Kings (and of our data) and which King willingly gives up his Kingdom?
3/ Interestingly Mark Zuckerberg briefly discusses #NFTs and digital ownership but in very vague terms, the way to ensure Meta embraces #NFT and #blockchain is to educate the world what #digitalpropertyrights truly means theverge.com/22749919/mark-…
1/ .@animocabrands is excited to announce its new strategic fundraise from @Ubisoft @LCVentures @dragonfly_cap @Com2uS @DTAPCAP @sequoia china @justinsuntron @lucytokenbay and others at a $2.2 billion pre-money valuation! venturebeat.com/2021/10/20/ani…
2/ We had raised $138,888,888 just in the last quarter so this raise was about the strategic benefits that our new group of investors could bring to the #openmetaverse #NFTs which @animocabrands has been actively supporting with now over 100 companies in the fam.
3/ Portfolio companies like @opensea @dapperlabs @AxieInfinity @YieldGuild are leading the way in demonstrating the growth and potential of #NFTs #playtoearn and all the disruptive opportunities they represent ledgerinsights.com/play-to-earn-n…
