Our goal: We use our knowledge, experience, and passion for blockchain to create original digital media that adds real value to the metaverse and its growing community.
Our passion: We like to spend our time thinking about novel and useful relationships among blockchain assets, social communication, sovereign identity, and digital entertainment.
We have developed a value system that we call the STRIVE Method.
Have you joined a blockchain community in the past only to see the project fade away due to poor management, failure to deliver on promises, or, even worse, a straight-up rug pull? Our founders are crypto veterans, and we’ve been there before too. We are here for the long haul, and we are committed to building Playcrypto responsibly, with a vision for long-term sustainability.
Broadly speaking, we are committed to the sustainability of blockchain as a global technology. This means providing real value as part of a larger, sustainable blockchain ecosystem and, ultimately, a robust metaverse. We believe this requires a multi-faceted approach, including commitments to economic, social, and environmental sustainability.
As this space grows, we aim to balance the many aspects of sustainability with our goals as a private company, including economic efficiency, ethical corporate conduct, and delivering value to stakeholders, including to the communities in which we operate.
We love blockchain because it is the modern-day confluence of foundational aspects of our society, including technology, finance, and politics.
On the blockchain, you can execute send, and receive assets without the oversight of a third-party. You can also regulate transactions through decentralized governance. In short, you can send, receive, and govern economic and social relationships without the oversight of a third-party intermediaries. But there are, no doubt, some major growing pains.
For example, 2022 showed the dangers of corporate mismanagement, with many crypto companies borrowing against and over-leveraging assets, to the detriment of their customers and investors. We believe that greater transparency in the crypto will benefit the space overall, including the numerous stakeholders involved. This may occur by balanced consumer protection measures. However, it should also occur through the inherent transparency of blockchain technology, which is built on the concept of an immutable public ledger of transactions.
Blockchain is full of tight-knit communities, whether online or in person. We want to build an inclusive, fun, and engaging community around our products. For example, Metafrenzy puts storytelling, community, and user engagement at its forefront.
We also want to build relationships with those outside of crypto, in order to dispel myths and function as ambassadors for the crypto community.
We are a technology company, and we love learning about and contributing to innovations in blockchain and metaverse development.
While a metaverse need not necessarily require the use of blockchain, blockchain produces a much richer metaverse experience by allowing built-in digital commerce and social interactions. With respect to decentralized payments and transactions regarding digital assets, blockchain is currently the best available technology to facilitate these arrangements on a peer-to-peer basis.
At Playcrypto, we adhere to a version of the metaverse that is intrinsically linked to blockchain. We believe that digital currencies and assets should be native to the metaverse experience, and we are working hard to make this happen.
If we can’t create real value, we shouldn’t be here. It’s that simple.
In a space full of vaporware, empty rhetoric, and over-inflated valuations, we only deserve your attention, much less trust, if we can produce real value in what we do.
Our aim is to provide value to the crypto community through our products, through our content, and by helping others learn about blockchain, as noted below.
Crypto is sometimes called technocratic, but there are many accessible sources of helpful information for both novice and advanced crypto users. At Playcrypto, we want to make contributions to these resources.
Foremost, we believe in helping educate crypto users on acting ethically and managing their blockchain assets responsibly.
We hope that other blockchain projects will join us in our pursuit of STRIVE principles.
