Maximilian Seeburg (1Up Capital) Finding the right method of funding for your game

To give the audience a transparent overview and comparison of 4 different methods of funding (VC, bank, credit cards, and UA funds) while highlighting each advantage but also their opportunity costs. Depending on the allotted time I would like to kick this session off with the question of publisher or self-publishing (funding?) as only for the latter these four options really make sense.  The audience will gain an understanding of the pros and cons of each method to hopefully find the right one for them while critically overthinking the publisher model.

Alfredo Bárcena - How Bitcoin's Assets Tokenization and Microrewards Will Shape The Gaming Industry

The session aims to give a brief introduction on how new technologies and features such as asset tokenization and micro-rewards in Bitcoin blockchain-based games using sidechain like Liquid or Lighting Network have brought a completely new form of relations between Studios, Publishers, and their audiences. These technologies are already being used in other fields and its arrival to the gaming industry is about to happen.  Players will own in their Bitcoin wallet every asset and micro-rewards in form of satoshis will increase KPI's enough to justify its adoption.
