I'm product lead at pn, focused on platform initiatives. I have a long history in fintech before making the jump to web3 and crypto. 

I got invited by Amitt in 2021 and neglected my account until 3 weeks ago.

what is pirate nation, and how did it come to be?

what made you choose arbitrum? and how is it going?

Pirate Nation is a fun pirate thee rpg built on nova but what it really is is a testing ground for our technology stack to help ourselves and eventually others build fully onchain games.

what are your thoughts on the experience today for players managing their collectibles? do you see a future where players could use external collectibles in pirate nation?

As far as how it came to be, a series of technical limitations have informed, and continue to inform our game design leading to interesting decisions and the game our players know and love. We believe that limitations bread innovation which is why we care so deeply about being fully onchain.
