roblox now lets players & brands 

>create new experiences & earn USD (not robux) when others play/buy them (revenue sharing/UGC/modding)

>optimize pricing structures around these experiences (create something cool & it will make money; don’t worry about the economics)

>connect & use their open source 3D creative suite for free (not a developer, no worries; anyone can create)

>create & bundle new cosmetic items & sell them with optimized dynamic pricing & royalties (UGC & player-ran real-money marketplace)

roblox generates nearly $1 BILLION PER QUARTER across 80 MILLION DAILY PLAYERS

For some reason people don't realize how big and influential Roblox, Minecraft, and Fornite are. Those are the games defining culture... not web3 games lol

@itsbasil is 100% correct in saying that no one cares about blockchain. People seem to forget the target audience is young teenagers... why would they care about something being onchain?

UGC games = culture
Web3 games = boring, but useful tech

I think these two worlds will collide and that's when we'll start seeing some true formations of the metaverse. Player to player economies seamlessly enabled by blockchain in a persistent world...

Wow.. that kinda sounds like... a mmorpg?? MMORPGs are the endgame baby

it only makes sense

from mmos we came; to mmos we shall return 

culture will always come full circle 

after all, we are memetic beings

110% that’s why I had to include it in this weeks newsletter too relevant to web3
