Greetings all,

In this week’s episode of Ventures, my guest Beau Button (https://www.linkedin.com/in/beaubutton/) - President and CTO of https://atlasreality.com - and I discuss play-to-earn, Web3, and the Atlas Realty story. We dive into Beau’s background as a technologist and entrepreneur, about Atlas Realty’s two successful games, their upcoming game next year with a Web3 component to it, gamer experiences, metaverses, Polygon, and the future of the Web3 gaming industry.

Check it out: Play-to-Earn, Metaverses, and the Future of Web3 Gaming :: with Beau Button

FTX

If you were on the Internet at all recently, you probably heard about the FTX/Binance happenings. Check out this article: Sam Bankman-Fried’s $16 Billion Fortune Is Eviscerated in Days

The price of ETH is down about 20% in the last 5 days, and most of that decline has happened in the last day or so. The implications are similar to the Terra collapse earlier this year; it hits the whole industry hard.  

But still, for those of us who have been in the industry for awhile…it’s just another day in crypto. Prices go up and down. Our future, however, is being built via people in Web3 who have their heads down and are working hard right now.

Many of you who read this simple weekly newsletter I know are in that camp. My hat goes off to you.

Have a great rest of your week,

~Will
