Today, I’m joined by SirsuHayb to learn all about the past, present and future of esports gaming DAO BLVKHVND.
Sirsu is a prolific Web3 builder and organizer. In 2021, Sirsu co-created The Mint Fund, Crypto Cookout, The Well, and the primary subject of today’s conversation, BLVKHVND.
BLVKHVNDis an esports DAO. It’s essential premise: put ownership of an esports team into the hands of the players and fans. At the time of recording, BLVKHVND’s world class teams participate in Halo Infinite, Apex Legends, Pokemon Unite, CS:GO, and Rogue Company leagues. HVND also holds NFT gaming assets, including a significant Parallel NFT collection.
In this episode, Sirsu explains the inner workings of BLVKHVND, and we dive into their latest project, Stadium, a Web3 platform for esports players to create teams and compete together.
Sirsu is an inspiring creator who has used crypto crowdfunding tools to launch a series of communities all dedicated to increasing equity and access for participants in traditionally gatekept domains. I hope you enjoy the show.
