Episode notes

immutable is the only solution out there that is so laser focused on the developer experience and also has developers in house to test and try those solutions. The truth is where we are in this case right now is that there is no playbook, right? There's not a ton of shortcuts. But what I will say is that because immutable has an in, like essentially my team is the guinea pig for all of the tools. It forces him to bring the tools down to a level that is actually intelligible for game players. And then that combination is actually where you're going to kind of see the growth because it's like they need content to make good content.

Video games have grown massively over time, commanding more and more leisure time for people all around the world. As video game popularity has grown, so has the use cases and popularity of blockchain technology and these two worlds are beginning to merge more frequently with blockchain based platforms for video games. To help us unpack this nuanced subject is Justin Hulog, Chief Studio Officer at Immutable X, a non-fungible token (NFT) minting and trading platform for video game developers. Justin has a wealth of experience as a general manager, operations leader, and people strategist, and mainly focuses on the intersection of strategy and organization to solve problems. In our conversation, we talk about how Immutable X started, the different sides of the business, details about his role, and what the company provides developers. We then delve into designing sustainable in-game economies, how to potentially leverage blockchain technologies, the idea of cost versus utility, and how to sustain a game’s user base. Hear about the different taxonomies of the space, balancing the business side and the developer side, the play-to-earn era, the silver lining of the recent crypto bear market, and much more. Tune in to discover how blockchain technology could be revolutionizing the video game industry!
