To our players, creators, and communities. I have one simple message.
If we stick together, we will change crypto forever.
The path forward is clear. The energy is undeniable.
I don’t have a shred of doubt that if we push as a unit, we change the game. Are you with me? 😤🏝️

Some thoughts on recent events in the metaverse.
TLDR; scarce virtual land is not only unethical it's almost certainly a losing strategy. Here's why.

our mission is nothing less than the transformation of gaming.
We have been building publicly for 2.5 years towards creating web3's open game world. One that puts communities, creators, fun, and wild prizes first.
Crypto can enable superior consumer

Imagine if there were only 100 thousand YouTube accounts and to create content you had to buy one.
That’s scarce land in the metaverse.
It stifles creativity and it makes no sense.

What you are about to witness over the next few months is a little something I call turbo mode.

The allure of prelaunch tokens and scarce virtual land is that they generate easy money and engagement.
The truth is, it's an incredibly costly way to raise capital.
You're taking on a debt in the form of game design constraints and a corrupted relationship with the player.

Last month we established Nifty Island as the leading web3 game world.

It is also obviously a model that rewards rent seeking. It is an entirely unnecessary move towards digital fedualism. Web3 is meant to disrupt old forms of hierarchy and reward creativity and participation.
Scarce virtual land does the opposite.

Those who have invested in crypto so far did not get rich for nothing. In an age of cynicism and paralysis, when many only complained, they put their faith in a new possible future, and through their faith, they made that future real.

Nifty Island is a game world where the smallest projects, the underdogs, get treated the same as the giants

Look at minecraft, roblox, and even youtube. Would these platforms be better if the right to create on them was limited to a tiny number of land holders?

Without great content and a significant user base, a virtual world cannot have value in the long run.
Scarce land is only as valuable as the demand for access to it. Scarce land undermines the creative potential of a platform, making it less appealing to visit.

The only path to long-term success is building a killer product. Crypto’s biggest problem as an industry is it presents so many siren songs that distract founders from that reality.
