It’s not one thing that’s promised someday sooner or later the place that introduces that speculative aspect.”

This is smart given the group’s background and primary aim. Specifically, to construct essentially the most enjoyable recreation experiences within the metaverse.

“We wish to present the utility up entrance, as a result of, to me, that’s simply how issues ought to be. That’s how video games are constructed. And that’s how we’ve been doing it within the gaming trade this complete time. And so, constructing on the NFT expertise shouldn’t change that.”
