Met EMB3R at 3XP last year and definitely a really cool guy. Had a few follow up calls on how things are going so far, and they’ve done some really cool things with the platform. Excited to see what they’re able to do.

Puffverse joins Ronin
Migrating from BNB chain to Ronin will be a huge boost of users. Puffverse plans to launch a play to earn party game, token and new NFTs. I believe this would be a good move for more active users and exposure.
Mighty Action Heroes teases snapshot
They have been teasing a token for a while, could be what this is for.
GuildFi rebrands as Zentry
GuildFi raised $140M from a ton of notable backers. Will be interesting to see what they do with the rebrand.
Faraway acquires HV-MTL and Legends of the Mara
I think this is an only up for Faraway. Yuga will receive some temporary FUD for not being associated with the two IP and collections, but will be good for them as they haven’t done much that people were excited for in regards to the two.
