End of the day update to my initial Ledger scam post:
The call was indeed a scam, confirmed by both the Greater Manchester Police and London Metropolitan Police (2 different regions because of where the scam call was made from and where I am based).
Things to confirm:
- Everything is safe and nothing has been stolen
- This confirms my Ledgers that I bought directly from @Ledger are safe proof and nothing was stolen or removed. So I will be continuing to use my Ledgers as it's better than no protection still.
- Police would never call you first unless you called them first to report and incident. They would only ever call you if you have an open case already (as mentioned by the kind officer on the phone to me).
- Scam number and scam incident has been reported and I have peace of mind ❤️
What baffled me most was, why do people go as far as pretending to be the Police and ask you to go into a police station to confirm your identity?
And that was to confirm my identity, and whether to flag my number as active or not, so that I could potentially receive more scam phonecalls and emails or not. As for the Police consultation and reference part, that was all fake to play on the emotions while he discreetly tries to get the answers he needed. The person on the phone, you'd never believe it but was a very well spoken Person and huge confidence in his voice. This wasn't your average international scammer with an accent.
As on high alert as I usually am, I feel I let down my guard around this in particular because I coincidentally did have my bank send me a new bank card recently (there may have been suspision that my card was infact being attempted to a scam or that it wasn'tworling properly) so the timing of getting a new bank card and a Police call within the same week was enough for me to let my guard slip-up.
Why am I sharing this?
To learn on the things I don't know of yet, that maybe others can help me with. And rather keep information to myself, I'd be happy to let others read, dictate and stay alert.
Even though you are confident on your security, one tiny slip of the mind is all it takes. And you won't be that person anymore that says "don't be a fool".
It can happen anytime to anyone.
No one is perfect.
I'm very grateful to have had a lot of knowledgeable people in the space, and a UK group chat that I confided in first to share this with, to understand the bigger and scary picture.
Have a great evening and stay safe please ❤️
Shigeru Miyamoto (Nintendo) just made one of the best arguments for AI in game development
As AI gets better at handling the labour involved in creating games, he believes the individual creator’s vision becomes more important, not less.
And we completely agree.
AI can help with the coding, assets, debugging, animation, dialogue, prototyping, etc.
But making those things easier doesn’t magically give you a good game.
Soon, almost anyone may be able to build a game.
But...will it actually be worth playing?
That still comes down to the idea, the experience, the humour, the characters, the world, the choices you make - all the things that give a game personality.
That’s why we don’t see AI as replacing creativity. We see it as removing some of the barriers between creativity and reality.
A player can turn themselves or their pet into a 3D character. A developer can experiment with reactive storytelling that would be impossible to script manually.
That’s the future of AI-powered entertainment we want to build towards with AI Nexus.

🔥A1X Buyback, Burn & Lock Update
Another $A1X buyback has now been completed.
This time:
• 1,595,865 $A1X bought back
• 797,932 $A1X burned
• 797,932 $A1X allocated to the Team and locked/vested for 12 months
As always, the Team allocation remains locked, and whatever happens once those tokens unlock will be communicated transparently with the community.
Running tally from buybacks so far:
• Total $A1X bought back: 9,587,138 $A1X
• Total $A1X burned from buybacks: 4,798,430 $A1X
• Total $A1X allocated to Team and locked/vested: 4,784,479 $A1X
This continues alongside the separate commitment to burn the original 120M $A1X Team allocation as it becomes available through vesting.
So the approach remains the same:
• Regular buybacks
• 50% burned
• 50% locked for the Team for 12 months
• Original Team allocation continuing to be burned
• Everything shared transparently with the community
Another step forward for $A1X.

@PixassoHQ@RUMSHQ@alexfacelesslbs@MultiversX Not exactly, you can't offset income with capital losses, only offset against capital gains. But you can carry them forward indefinitely like USA.
📰Can AI make games?
This isn't the interesting question - it's: What can a talented 3-person team build tomorrow that used to need 30 people?
Epic is reportedly pushing hard into AI-accelerated development, while Unity is already putting AI assistants and agents directly inside the game-development workflow.
AI doesn't have to replace a creative team completely - it just gives them the ability to do much more in a smaller amount of time.
- A small studio can prototype faster.
- A developer can turn an idea into something playable sooner.
- Artists can iterate more quickly.
- Writers can experiment with reactive characters and dialogue.
- Players can turn their own concepts into digital characters in minutes.
That's exactly the opportunity we see with Play As Me and the future AI Nexus SDK.
Lets not remove the human element from game development!
Lets just remove the barrier between "I have an idea" and "I can build this".
More creators. More wacky ideas. More experimentation.
This is what excites us about the future.
