Most Web3 games don't have a retention problem, growth problem, economy problem, or community problem.
They have a player ecosystem design problem.
These aren't separate challenges. They're interconnected systems that work together to drive long-term participation, monetization, & sustainable growth.
Competitive systems are a great example:
• They create recurring content for LiveOps
• They give players goals beyond farming
• They increase retention & long-term participation
• They create opportunities for creators, guilds, & partnerships
• They enable sponsorships & cross-community events
• They drive demand for game assets and strengthen the economy
One well-designed system can impact player lifecycle, LiveOps, growth, and economic sustainability simultaneously.
The strongest projects don't optimize individual features. They build player ecosystems where the systems reinforce each other.
I finally updated my consulting deck to better explain the framework I use when evaluating and designing player ecosystems 👇

Would love feedback from founders, operators, and growth teams😁
Didn't mean official announcements, just some back & forth/brainstorming with the rest of the contributors
Yes, there are some legal hoops and it's still early, but if you don't at least get the contributors involved in the strategic thinking then I'm not sure what we doing here
@BiffChain@AxieInfinity Sorry bro. We were not going to announce anything yet, but our hand was forced. For now lets just say there has to be a way to kick start governance. We are just a bridge to help the community. We don't want to be the soon tm guys.
Redesign or get rid of evolved parts. The original vision was to introduce new strategy, not more powerful cards
Buy in tourneys with global ranking system and rank gated sponsored events
Profit sharing Axie rental marketplace
Capped the supply and stop distributions of SLP
@2ctv With a risk to earn model players would be farming each other lol.
Probably get some pool sharks and hustlers out there but the base economy would be strong and not reliant on AXS inflation
I approached them months ago to redesign how classic works and got zero interest 🥲
The answer seems obvious, turn it into a P2P wagering platform with persistent rankings and sponsored tournaments.
Add in event based delegation and prize sharing and we are cooking with gas!
@Hantao Sounds good on paper (even if it's way late)
My worry would be it's a larger then needed group and mostly esports players and content creators lol
I need to to see a vision to buy in, not old names
