The Future of Gaming w/ Jihoz, Founder of Axie Infinity & Ronin Network

As the co-founder of both @AxieInfinity & @Ronin_Network, Jeff has more time in the trenches of crypto gaming than almost anybody in the space.

Here's why he believes crypto gaming is going to win👇

Plus:

- How can we as "web3 gaming" onboard not just new users, but actually capture the hearts of broader crypto?

- What is Axie doing to retain it's spot as one of the top crypto games and not fade into the background like so many other forerunners?

- Why is Ronin one of the few chains going all in on gaming and how in the world do they have so many daily active users?
