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
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 forbes.com/sites/paultass…
6/ IMO To understand this western rejection is to understand the political moment the west lives in, the majority of youth in the US have an unfavourable view of capitalism as unfair. They dislike Crypto & NFTs which represent digital capitalism thehill.com/homenews/campa…
9/ #NFTs represent a paradigm shift for the online world because it is now possible to truly own your digital assets #digitalpropertyrights in a decentralized and scalable manner especially in games giving gamers not just ownership but also governance ysiu.medium.com/cars-ownership…

2/ Production of arts & cultural goods in the US is already a close to trillion dollar industry employing over 5 million people, direct participation in the industry of culture is already a critical component of any thriving economy today arts.gov/news/press-rel…
3/ However when you consider the impact #arts & #culture have in other industries it becomes clear that culture is the foundation of most of our economic activity from retail, gaming, entertainment and even outdoor recreation.
1/ Given the current state of AIP-183, .@Apecoin may be entering 2023 without an administrator which will cause unnecessary complications to $APE #DAO operations. I am proposing a solution that could perhaps solve the situation to everyone’s satisfaction under #AIP-1 rules
2/ The community deserves to be better informed, I believe it is absolutely necessary that Apecoin should never be without an administrator at any time because they are critical to keeping operations going for the DAO as described here forum.apecoin.com/t/aip-183-cart…
3/ I propose approving @CartanGroup as outlined in AIP-183 so DAO operations are not paused. Though the proposal is for 1 year, a new proposal for DAO operations & admins can be submitted 3 months after the proposal passes per AIP-1, Guideline 6. forum.apecoin.com/t/aip-1-propos…
1/ .@animocabrands is excited to announce our partnership with @coolcatsnft one of the earliest, important and cutest #NFT metaverse first collections out there, to celebrate I picked up a few #CoolCats including this rare beauty #CoolCatsNFT #7807 a little🧵👇
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…
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
