Tracking the evolution of game development as it incorporates crypto and NFTs.

This is the result of rational behavior by game studios, so as long as it continues to be profitable the cultural homogenization with continue. #crypto #gamedev

What's amazing about this is that .@NintendoCoLtd didn't even know about the investment until it had already happened, and now Saudi Arabia is the 5th biggest investor. #gamedev

Looks like #crypto #gamedev will be heating up in the near future.

I think this is meant as a joke, but the combination of local food growing + global crypto finance is probably a good recipe for a healthier and more robust global order.

Imagine the timeline if we all started farming vegetables and not just farming yield, how cozy life would be, how ppl might change their perception of crypto #Ag

[vivaria @VivariaEth]

Everything about this #Terra thread is bordering on deranged - clearly the writings of a "very stable genius." At this point why on earth would anyone take .@stablekwon seriously?

[Do Kwon 🌕 @stablekwon]

1/ Terra is more than $UST

Portal isn't awesome because of the graphics - it's awesome because for some weird reason, humans like topological puzzles. #gamedev

[Kotaku @Kotaku]

Somehow, the N64 can do Portal: https://t.co/thJj9KpXeO

The phrase "release the data" shouldn't even be applicable to an algorithmic stablecoin that is intended for general use - all the data should be public in the first place. #Terra_Luna

[DCinvestor @DCinvestor]

hear me out: @LFG_org created by @terra_money & @stablekwon to acquire a huge sum of BTC with LUNA they couldn’t sell

purpose was never to save the peg, but to give them (or others) an exit parachute in the event of protocol failure

conspiracy? release data asap & prove wrong

[vivaria @VivariaEth]

This paper on next steps for web3 has so many interesting ideas, but the thing it really drives home for me is that zero-knowledge technologies are going to foundational for the next generation of crypto.

The impending bear market is going to stress test #crypto #gamedev, and I suspect that a P2E-first model is not going to survive. You have to have a fun game before you focus on the economy. Or codevelop them at least.

When the servers are all centralized and the game is cloud streaming only, fun dies. #crypto #gamedev should make this sort of thing obsolete.

@ametel01 Thanks!

[vivaria @VivariaEth]

This will work well for turn based games, but I think there are good cryptographic reasons that Ethereum's block time is approx. 15 seconds. I think getting it lower and/or cheaper requires centralization. Tradeoffs. #crypto #gamedev

[Alex Metelli @ametel01]

My view about onchain gaming is pretty maximalist: every action should be processed onchain, no compromises. The infrastructure is not ready to allow this yet, but it will soon…

[vivaria @VivariaEth]

@ametel01 Yeah I like that a lot. Do you know a good place to learn more about L3s at the implementation level? I can follow Cairo programs pretty comfortably, but haven't written much yet.

[vivaria @VivariaEth]

@ametel01 I should have looked at your profile before tweeting - I assumed "on chain" just meant on an L1. Starknet makes more sense. I'm not familiar with any L3s - do you think 30 frames/sec first-person games will be feasible fully on L3?

[vivaria @VivariaEth]

I would love to be wrong about this though.

[Do Kwon 🌕 @stablekwon]

If you get burned by a textbook ponzi scheme you have noone but yourself to blame.

Don’t FOMO in after crypto influencers.

Most of them are dumber than you.

[vivaria @VivariaEth]

There's literally a .@stablekwon tweet for every moment of the #Terra_Luna collapse. #crypto.

[Do Kwon 🌕 @stablekwon]

@diskandartweet Beware of protocols with cyclical economic pressures. If they reward richly during upcycles when lots of people buy in, they also likely punish quickly during downcycles when most are looking to exit.

[Jason Stone @0x_b1]

UPDATE: Sites that we have confirmed COULD have been compromised as multiple people has crossover on these tabs being open:

- Etherscan
- DEXTools
- Curve Finance

Will report others if we get credible info

[vivaria @VivariaEth]

More details - you should probably wait to send TXs until you're sure this is resolved: #crypto
