Rehash: A Web3 Podcast

S4 E3 | Rules of Game Design w/ Andy Boyan

Mar 2, 2023
56:24

In this episode of Rehash, we sit down with Andy Boyan, founder of Infinity Keys, to talk all about games, game theory, and how games can push the web3 space forward by offering an alternative incentive mechanism that isn’t purely financial. We dive into Andy’s definition of a game, what differentiates a good game from a bad game, and discuss the psychology of play. Andy gives us the inside scoop on Infinity Keys, the many ways it can be used, and he drops some potential alpha on a possible rehash/ infinity keys collab in the future.
