S3E18 Playing Blockchain Games on LinkedIn w. Alex Altgausen, Founder of Banksters

For the first time EVER, we play a Blockchain game LIVE on the Blockchain Won't Save the World podcast!... This was serious fun. Seriously... Web3 gaming is not 'owning your NFTs'. Alex will explain why Blockchain infrastructure and gamification can transform more than just casual gaming... With a background in trading, exchanges and multi-technology innovation, Alex Altgausen has a broader outlook on Web3 than many. He pioneered the launch of StormGain (a sophisticated competitor to traditional crypto exchanges) and recently founded Banksters: a game and innovative gamification infrastructure combined. Games are about fun, and providing meaningful experiences and rewards for users' commitment and engagement with their games. They rarely care about what technology is under the hood, and we'll explore this deeper on the show. We talk about:- What it takes to build and grown a Web3 game like Banksters- The potential for Blockchain to disrupt the Gaming industry- How to think objectively about the value in the technology- How major game developers are looking at Web3 tech today- Advice for others game developers based on the Banksters experience
