Virtual Real Estate Investment - currently in @nftworldsNFT, @grayboysdao, @TheSandboxGame and @_portals_. Thesis: #Land, #Development, #Income, #Utility
@iamarkdev@hytopia Perpetuity is a long time and will create streams of funds to dead wallets/accounts or to creators who turn up for a few days then move on. The intention is sound, but the perpetual nature might need rethinking
@hytopia doing a major recovery. Along with @Pixelmon, there is no other web3 project that has publically collapsed so spectacularly and then rebounded nearly two years later.
Feels good to see this come around.
This was one of my WORST crypto/nft bets ever as the top buyer.
MY INVESTMENT
I invested > $3.5 Million into 100+ NFTs and NFT back Feb-March 2022 and within 6 months had lost 95% of that value.
ATH for NFT Worlds hit 19e tail end of bull early 2022 (I was that sucker buying the NFTs all the way from 3e to 12e and the token at .20 to .30c USD)
The entire project collapsed shortly after Microsoft banned NFTW from building on Minecraft. This destroyed the entire ecosystem and the assets values imploded.
The project made news around the world after the MS ban: https://t.co/eYOd56Y6hb
$TOPIA (formerly WRLD) which reached .60c collapsed to .005c. NFTW nft floors collapsed from 19e to < .5e.
I went in right after Microsoft rugged and doubled down, increasing my position by 35% and snagging a bunch of rare worlds for a fraction of the bull prices.
THE SLOW RECOVERY
The team kept building and building and building IN PUBLIC through the bear, despite the collapsed token and floors. They pivoted to their OWN game engine (rather than building on minecraft), and launched their own layer 2 gaming chain.
TOPIA is now on the verge of launching a full on competitor to minecraft / roblox with the early playable alpha coming early Q1 and likely open betta Q2.
The TOPIA (nft) floors were swept to almost 6e and the token is now nearing .10c.
If that's not a recovery from near death, I don't know what is.
This project stands next to @Pixelmon as a project that was saved from death by a dedicated team that kept building even though the market wrote of the project as dead.
Pays to bet on teams who keep building. Pays to bet on teams and NOT projects. Pays to look where other people are afraid to look.
WHY I NEVER SOLD
We need a good web3 competitor to Roblox and Minecraft with a focus on UGC, and Hytopia is the closest web3 game with a vision to that.
I kept my position and doubled down buying the major dip because the team were building and they pivoted through the worst and kept damn building.
The difference between the projects that made it through the bear and those that vanished
FUTURE OUTLOOK OF @hytopia
Good. Very good.
My bet here is $TOPIA > $1 USD and the TOPIA world floors > 10e again.
When the open beta launches Q1 and the token + nft ecosystem is activated in game, the assets values will fully send hard. I think they have what it takes to get a massive player base coming in from Roblox and Minecraft where NO VALUE IS EARNED FOR YOUR TIME SPENT.
Think of it this way: sink in 100 hours, make friends and earn nothing for time spent...OR sink in 100 hours and earn a little or a LOT, while retaining ownership of your time and progress spent in game through owning your assets.
When players play and earn, creators will also build to earn too.
We're loving how our game for @collectingmeta is turning out 🔥

With our beta launch on the horizon, we wanted to dive deep into why we believe there’s a perfect storm brewing where we (@hytopia) can become “The next Minecraft”.
A bold claim, but bear with us as we dive in… This is going to be a long one.

I came into web3 building @nftworldsNFT, having a decade long love of Minecraft.
And now, we have the opportunity to make the rebrand of NFT Worlds into what I and many others wished the Minecraft we love would have progressed into & become (as a game, Web3 aside)
Very excited
Very, very excited about this one.
We're created probably the most frictionless cash onramp flow I've ever seen, powered by @stripe, to all games built on @tryMetaFab 💪
We're extremely excited for this. Another piece of the puzzle to onboard 10,000,000+ players.
We'll be using the @tryMetaFab's cash onramp system to enable mainstream players to purchase $WRLD, lootboxes, in-game items and more using their credit/debit cards.
🤩MetaFab Developer Dashboard Demo🤩
Here's a demo of MetaFab's developer console. It's a work in progress. Beta soon.
In the demo we setup basic on-chain game infrastructure in minutes, just point/click
After setup, we're ready to implement into a game via MetaFab's APIs
In a little over a year @nftworldsNFT went from a fun idea to persist your minecraft builds on the blockchain and interconnect servers..
To now building the next generation minecraft/roblox, solving over a decades worth of technical debt and developer pain points.
Wild.
Introducing @tryMetaFab - a free, open, developer driven technology built and used by @nftworldsNFT to help the entire GameFi ecosystem reach mainstream adoption.

Crypto-based games will never see mainstream adoption until developer & player friction is solved.

What does this mean?
Player gasless transactions will no longer be limited to transaction time + waiting 1 to 2 block confirmations. Multiple gasless transactions from the same player can be stacked into the same block without verification collisions that otherwise prevented it.
