Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Jon discusses the ongoing development of blockchain strategy game CryptoWars with Experimental (aka e11.io) CEO Matias Nisenson.
Development on CryptoWars started in mid-2018 and since the start of 2019, Experimental has been regularly testing various aspects of the game - from the blockchain infrastructure including Loom Network’s Layer 2 solution through to gameplay features. 
The game is currently expected to be live in early 2020. 
Topics covered include:

Matias’ history prior to launching Experimental
Why Experimental decided to make a strategy blockchain game
Why he (still) rates Ethereum over other blockchains
The strengths (and weaknesses) of using a sidechain like Loom, especially for UX
Why games will be the gateway for mass adoption of blockchain
Why CryptoWars’ economy is much more sophisticated than NFT sales
The challenges of raising investment
What’s next in terms of CryptoWars’ development
