In a few years' time, there will be more people making a living playing video games than making cars. 

So more people making money from just PLAYING video games they enjoy than in making the 80m cars that are made every year.

That sounds crazy!

That at any rate is the big bold prediction of Robby Yung, the CEO of Animoca Brands, one of the leading blockchain gaming companies.

He is talking about the mega move out there from play-to-play gaming (where you pay money for a game and then you just play it) to play-to-earn gaming (where you are in some way rewarded financially for playing).

After listening to the podcast though, you might not think it's so crazy after all!
