living/farming etc.) and the game launch itself towards the end of the year if all things go to plan. Te team is working incredibly hard and especially the developments of blockchain coding etc.
Where do you see the future of the Metaverse headed, what are the potentials and also the areas that need more development? As well as all the parts mentioned earlier, there is a partial dillema to the Metaverse to which and how people will use it/be used. On the one hand you give people a great sense of freedom to many whom perhaps for whatever reason cannot usually do so, you have the ability of greater exploration and education, perhaps great on virtual events adding extra attendance revenues outside the remit of physical attendees, but the other side of the argument is taking away the human aspect of life, exploration and interaction socially in a physical format. - Te thought of possibly leaving our ‘real world’ behind too much and then blending into our virtual world more so (like the avatar film). So not so much a development but perhaps a nurturing of how we should act and relate to a virtual world. Maybe the Matrix is a documentary film now aſter all?
Can you tell us more about NFTs? Wow, this is such an awesome topic and quite a fun one to learn more about. NFT’s in the main media right now are predominantly looking at things like digital collectible items, you may have seen the crazy ape ones, crypto punks etc. many people are buying digital assets like cards, digital comics, figurines etc. Tis is because on blockchain you have traceability, verification of purchase and like earlier when I mentioned about bloodline, a similar principle can be achieved with this also, i.e. the history of an items purchase. For example, if I give you a £10 note, you can’t tell me where it has been before, how many hands/banks it has gone through. Blockchain allows full transparency (without giving away the persons identity - although we will be allowed to control our data more with blockchain and actually enter a world very soon we can decide who has our data and also get paid for it). So you can see the price history, how long it was held for etc. - Verification and Digital ID is very important and blockchain has the solution to that. But also, NFT’s are literally anything that has a value that is
not a 1:1 ration, i.e. if I give you £10, it’s £10. But if I give you my Charizard Pokemon card I have had for 20 years, it has way more value as it is rarity and history/demand etc. NFT’s can be applied to cars, for example any service work you
have done will be entered into blockchain, and when you go to sell that car the data is all on blockchain and can deliver a more fair price based on data algorithms worldwide, cost of parts etc. Another example is property, in fact just recently a project I invest in called Propy just did the worlds first NFT Property auction, selling a house in Miami for $650k or so’s worth of Etherium (A blockchain and also crypto token Ether). Any work that will be done to that property moving forward can be entered onto blockchain as verified proof and be defined by true value based similarly to what I mentioned a minute ago regarding history, data, etc. instead of someone from an agency suggesting a price manually. Furthermore to this, with blockchain and NFT’s you remove intermediaries, with smart contracts and trust mechanism,

digital ID’s (KYC - Know your customer) we will all be on this system in the coming years whether you like it or not. Everything we do, purchase, order (automation is going to be huge with blockchain by the way) will all be interlaced. Houses will be sold within days and not months, think of that concept not just in property but also finance in general, physical items in the real world selling virtually and visa versa, the economy of the world will blast off significantly when it is all fully switched on.
Where do you see blockchain capability headed? As well as all I have mentioned, blockchain is already in play, it is here, it is ready, it is arguably going to be un-noticeable unless you know about it. We are talking on mass scale to take humanity and machine to the next level. Finance, Real Estate, Shopping, Automation - everything will run on this. You will be rewarded for activities, contributing data, playing games, being in the Metaverse. We will be entering, in the next 2-3 years the switchover to what they call CBDC’s (Central Bank Digital Currencies) where your typical currencies are going to be replaced with a digital version, all traceable, verified etc. as mentioned before with NFT’s, but also allowing over 2 billion people who are currently not bankable in the world to be bankable, full transparency of trade, tracing where your produce has come from and on the other end the producer being able to see the fairness of their payment etc. - you will see the full transformation of Machine-to-Machine Learning, we have already given our data, purchasing behaviours, behaviours in general via our digital footprint the last couple of decades as well as most smartphone activities, we will come to a point of machines knowing what you need and want before you even know yourself. Tis is where blockchain comes in for the transactions part, to do all this in the background e.g. you may have a chip inside you which will tell you, Simon you will have a heart attack in two weeks because we have analysed your body etc, remain calm ambulance is on the way. Medication is delivered by drone the same day, and also a balanced food diet during the next few weeks based on your likes and dislikes but also what the data has provided to suggest the nutrition you need. Tere are literally so many aspects of blockchain that people will consider “normal” soon and will not ever realise what is making it all work! Harvesting food automatically, seeding automatically, using full world data and algorithm of real time supply and demand to determine the speed and timing of all these things. I strongly suggest anyone to take a look at blockchain as a topic, it is amazing!
What about esports, what are you seeing going on in this space? I think for sure you will see a lot more esports games going into the blockchain genres. For example Axie Infinity, a big blockchain based game that has its big tournament coming up in March. But get this, you as viewers can get paid to watch!! Yes that is right, another project I invest in called Versasity has a sports player browser you can go on and watch streams of gamers and get paid for doing so at the same time. Time is money and why should you as a viewer not be paid either for your time? Furthermore their tech also helps advertisers get confirmed viewerships and remove ad fraud, which contributes hundreds of billions lost annually in digital advertising!
