Web3 Made Easy with Ready Games - FOGcast#47

In this episode of the FOGcast, Nico Vereecke hosts an engaging dialogue with David Bennahum, cofounder and CEO of Ready Games, Devin Becker and Sebastian Park.
David introduces listeners to Ready Games, a pioneer in Web3 gaming tools and protocols. Originally launched in 2017 with the objective of democratizing access to game creation, Ready Games has since evolved to build solutions that help primarily Web2 publishers transition into Web3. David illustrates these advancements with a demonstration of how their solution facilitates real-time movement and legal transfer of NFTs within a gaming context.
Further into the episode, David elaborates on Ready Games' hybrid Web2/Web3 infrastructure and how it impacts player identity and game economy. He highlights the cost-effective nature of their marketing model and gives an overview of the developer-friendly tools provided by Ready Games, which have already attracted about 16 major publishers representing 1,400 games and 80 million monthly Web2 players. 
David then delves into Ready Games' distinct features: complete game infrastructure, alignment with business logic, and non-competitive customer relationships. He shares key KPIs reflecting their successful Web2 to Web3 transition and projects their market strategy in the coming months.
Sebastian Park, who is the co-founder of Infinite Canvas, steers the conversation towards the projection of the game development market. He and David explore the potential of Web3, multiplayer gaming elements, the importance of player identity, and strategies to tackle the 'chicken-and-egg' problem of player bases in synchronous multiplayer games. David also shares insights on how game publishers can leverage Web3 to improve customer acquisition.
Nico wraps up the discussion with a question about the onboarding friction for Web3 games. David presents a video of a player creating a crypto wallet within a game, illustrating the low friction involved in the process. David then invites developers to experiment with the Web3 platform through the Unity SDK available at ready.gg.
This episode provides a comprehensive insight into the future of gaming, the potential of Web3, and the role Ready Games is playing in this evolving landscape. Enjoy!
