Since the co-founders of @virtuals_io are sharing the story about Virtuals (formerly PathDAO), Iโ€™d like to share how I joined the team. My web3 journey began during the Axie Infinity boom with Monstax, founded by @0xshas. We peaked at 1000 Malaysian scholars but couldnโ€™t secure VC funding in 2022. On the bright side, @everythingempt0 and @ethermage saw potential in the Monstax community and recruited me to strengthen the gaming community. As Head of Gaming at PathDAO, we peaked at 5000 scholars, achieved top rankings and one of the biggest guild Axie, Pegaxy, Stepn, and Castle Crush. During the bear market, we scaled down but maintained a strong community with game nights and partnerships. I transitioned to the Investment team, eventually becoming the General Partner. In 2024, PathDAO became Virtuals. I became the Founding Partner of @VirtualsGG with 10mn AUM and @MDIPlaya as a co-founder. Our vision is to onboard both competitive and casual web2 gamers into web3. At @virtuals_io, my role is to build connections with high-level stakeholders and prospective gaming projects to integrate our AI capabilities into their games. I would love to connect with games that would like to integrate AI capabilities or collaborate with us for community activation. Let's elevate the space together!

New folks need to know that Virtuals was PathDAO. Quick story ๐Ÿธ This was 2021. @ethermage and I saw Merit Circle / GuildFi were raising hundreds of millions, and we thought, actually, we've been running a decent Axie guild, why don't we do the same? In December 2021, we raised 16 million from the public, marking the picotop of the 2021 bull run. Since then, as a gamingDAO, we invested in both the liquid and primary markets of crypto games. We screened >1,000 crypto games and invested in 40+ of them over the past two years. Sadgely, our $PATH token price dropped by more than 99%, due to both macro conditions and the fading narrative of gamingDAOs. Throughout these two years, we have been figuring out how to pamp the token price (aka return value to tokenholders). We started a venture studio and built various products: phygital clothing brand for gamers, dating apps based on blockchain reputation, uncollateralized loans for gamers, AI generative music for Web2 users, GambleFi/loyalty platforms for cosplayers, and even a high school popularity contest mobile app. Several observations led to an epiphany and the birth of Virtuals Protocol: (1) Games will be disrupted by AI agents. (2) Building AI infrastructure for startup founders is extremely challenging. (3) We have the capability to build AI infrastructure. (4) AI narrative will be massive These realizations led us to build the Shopify equivalent of AI agents for games. We understand our customers (aka the games) and have the capability and resources to build. In Dec 2023, we went to the DAO community. We proposed a pivot from a gamingDAO to an AI agent protocol. The DAO community approved, and Virtuals Protocol was officially born in January 2024.
