Our conversation is not only a lesson in all things web3 gaming and play-to-earn but also a deep dive into all the painpoints that guilds face. Although many would consider web3 gaming a small market today, there is little doubt that this will become a multi-billion dollar market as gaming acts as the gateway into the wider crypto ecosystem.

We go through Alex’s impressive background and the reason he started Nansen. It is super interesting to hear Alex’s entrepreneurial journey from ideation to execution

While speaking with Alex you can tell that Nansen is going to be a monster. Especially because they recently announced that they raised a huge $75m round and are quickly approaching unicorn status.

Josie, Ben & Chris - CyberBrokers: Foundations Of A New Universe - Zima Red ep 103
My guests today are Josie, Ben and Chris. This is a special episode because not only is Josie my wife, but she is also creating a project called Cyberbrokers, which is a series of 10,001 fully on-chain art collectibles. CyberBrokers serve as the foundation for an entire ecosystem that is going to be part story, part game and part experience.
It is incredible to hear the team's story as not only are they all OGs, but they have created this elaborate backstory that explains the lore of the CyberBrokers universe and really brings the project to life. It is also exciting to see how they are pushing the technical boundaries of NFTs by putting assets with exceptionally high-level of detail, on-chain.
It is always amazing speaking with teams of this caliber and I look forward to watching what they build going forward
Also Josie wanted me to remind everyone that the last day to sign up for the CyberBroker allowlist is Feb 18, midnight. Its open to all and anyone can sign up
Please enjoy my conversation with Josie, Ben and Chris.

Noah & Ian - Parcel: Building The Platform For Experiences In The Metaverse - Zima Red ep 102
My guests today are Noah & Ian from Parcel. Parcel is the go-to platform for virtual real estate & experiences, think Zillow but for the metaverse.
I loved chatting with Noah & Ian, not only to hear about their story but also the manner in which they view virtual real estate.
We can think of virtual worlds not like cities, but more like experience platforms. Experiences can be built on every parcel of digital real estate and these platforms will eventually evolve into something like user-owned and governed social media. A much brighter vision than where social media sits today.
Hearing Noah & Ian’s entrepreneurial journey is exciting and inspiring - I hope it encourages more to jump in and start building as it is people like Noah & Ian, the builders, who keep driving the space forward.
Please enjoy my conversation with Noah & Ian.
