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-…
4/ We will continue to invest aggressively in the #openmetaverse with true digital property rights in such a manner that all the closed metaverses are forced to become open in much the same way global free trade opened economies decrypt.co/84043/facebook…
6/ and we partner and invest with the biggest partners in the industry for mutual and shared success for everyone in the ecosystem and will continue to partner up with more to continue in this creation of shared value coindesk.com/business/2021/…

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?
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.
2/ 2.5 years in the making to launch the kind of game that can compete with the highest quality titles in the market right now while delivering the benefits of #NFT#truedigitalownership the gameplay video below is in-game footage built on @UnrealEngine
3/ The game is already playable on Steam as a pre-beta/alpha with some of the best gameplay and visuals of any game (including #NFTGaming) out there today in the hope that it can bring on #blockchain mass adoption faster through gamers! In-game footage:
2/ Going down memory lane these are excerpts of our May 2018 slides (full presentation here: asx.com.au/asxpdf/2018052…) talking about our early partnership with @CryptoKitties the reasons why #blockchain#games could be significant for crypto adoption
3/ Through decades of video game history we have made generations of players comfortable with the idea of virtual currencies and virtual assets and gaming has historically pushed technology forward. Gaming utility is entirely virtual and is its own raison d'être #premetaverse
2/ Onboarding can only happen if it is desirable to do so, Greenland is the size of the entire U.S. east coast but has a population the size of a small town. Many reasons why but more, cheap or free land has not onboarded more people into their countries tatlerasia.com/culture/travel…
3/ indeed New York has the attention of 8m people but so does Bogota but its land is significantly less expensive. Why? The per capita influence of New York is higher which is what makes it more desirable and why you want to live there. Metaverse Land functions similarly.
The level of support, hope and encouragement @animocabrands has been receiving after our Unicorn raise has been amazing, inspiring. We are deeply humbled and grateful of all the support from the #NFT community👇venturebeat.com/2021/05/13/ani…
We intentionally constructed @animocabrands as both builders like @F1DeltaTime@TheSandboxGame and ecosystem investors in the #NFT ecosystem because we firmly believe in the Web 3.0 network effect as mutually beneficial it is why we invested in over 50 #NFT projects (++future)
For digital property rights to truly function it must stay open and composable in much the same way #opensource has been to code. #NFTs represent in an immutable fashion our ideas, imagination, stories and our culture. I discuss some of that here:
