Crypto markets may be down, but the industry is still booming. There are still many jobs to be had, but talent is hard to come by.

It’s easier to cut a straight career path through crypto now than it was eight years ago.

And @GnosisGuild Co-Founder @auryn_macmillan thinks it’s better to get your hands dirty and get lost on the way.

Web3 games are much, much better than they used to be.

So when it comes to gameplay, graphics and more, which popular games stack up and which don't make the cut?

Longtime gamer @davidzmorris ranks them as part of #GameFiWeek sponsored by @CatizenAI 🧵 coindesk.com/consensus-maga…
It’s new, it’s hot, it’s incredibly effective at what it was designed for — but @hamster_kombat isn’t really “a game,” @dzmorris writes.

But there's no denying its popularity. Have you played Hamster Kombat?

.@pixels_online is "a game you can run in the background and check in on every once in a while," @davidzmorris says.

He gives the graphics an A+. Do you agree?

The Shanghai Upgrade next month puts the final touch on Ethereum’s transition to proof-of -stake.

Join us as we speak with @consensus2023 speakers and other leaders on its impact on development, markets and policy for #BUIDLWeek.

@consensus2023 “When you're a validator on the proof-of-stake chain, it's still a one-way process. There's still not a way to get your funds back on the execution layer of Ethereum ... This is the main thing we're bringing in the next upgrade." — @TimBeiko

“Roll ups need to store data on Ethereum, but storing data on Ethereum is actually much cheaper than running computations on it.” — @TimBeiko

We’re excited to introduce you to Consensus Magazine.

Starting today, we’re rebranding Layer 2 by CoinDesk to align our flagship magazine more closely with our annual festival as we frame the conversation on the industry’s future. 🧵

Each December since 2014, we've taken stock of the year to find the themes, stories and people that made an impact on crypto, blockchain and Web3.

And 2022 has been like no other year.

Welcome to #MostInfluential2022, presented by @Bitstamp: coindesk.com/mostinfluentia… Image
To be clear, this is a list, not a ranking.

Some of our influencers had an outsize impact this year, and more prominence on the list. Many of our influencers are bad actors (but influential nonetheless).

.@SECGov Chair @GaryGensler said staked cryptocurrencies may be subject to federal securities regulations, repeating a pro-oversight stance in the wake of #Ethereum’s Merge.

“Of these 10,000 crypto tokens ... I believe that the vast majority are securities,” @SECGov Chair @GaryGensler told a U.S. Senate panel on Thursday, repeating a pro-oversight stance in the wake of @Ethereum’s transition to just such a method.
coindesk.com/policy/2022/09…
Testimony got heated on Capitol Hill today.

@SECGov chair @GaryGensler says “there are many factors“ for crypto to qualify as a security.

“It’s not about the token being on a thousand computers, it’s like a group of developers in the middle.”

What do Cashio’s @0xghostchain, Sunny Aggregator’s @SuryaKhosla and 9 other anon devs have in common?

They’re all @simplyianm — and they helped him pump TVL on the Saber protocol and Solana last year.

@realdannynelson and @0x_bae investigate: bit.ly/3zZwbYO
Coding as 11 purportedly independent developers, a 20-something computer wiz from Texas created a vast web of interlocking DeFi protocols that projected billions of dollars of double-counted value onto the Saber ecosystem. bit.ly/3zZwbYO
.@simplyianm’s activity temporarily inflated the total value locked on Solana.

The ploy worked for a while. By his count, Saber and Sunny comprised $7.5 billion of Solana’s $10.5 billion TVL at their peak. bit.ly/3zZwbYO
