[Music] I think it's a it's a the most important thing is making them feel seen and making their making sure that their voices are heard while providing a great game or an experience so that they have something to [Music] do blockchain Enthusiast now but gamer my my entire life so it goes in waves right now blockchain [Music] enthusiasts so my life was gaming for such a long period of time you know I'm born in 1986 so I feel like the first generation of Gamers and especially online uh I always loved like online gaming loved collecting in games and I feel like it's such a natural fit with blockchain in terms of letting people really own their game assets like that's why I wanted to to work in in in blockchain and gaming [Music] passionate I think uh just how big it became and how fast it became big because we set out to create something that we wanted to play first and it wasn't really about that it could be something like billion dollar trillion dollar like the market shouldn't be it was only about creating something that we thought would be amazing and then I think the the players really saw that and saw the impact that we brought and then uh it really just blew up from there so that really surprised me how fast it [Music] happened I think that playing and earning inside games is the future of digital work almost like because you will have uh you know digital worlds or metaverse if you want to call it that where people are playing and earning so yes I think that's a future of some games but I think you will always have games just for entertainment which don't really have anything to do with blockchain but blockchain and nfts it really enables another layer of uh engagement and I think uh just brings a deeper user experience to to these games and so yeah I think it's very important for the future
