Yeah, it's interesting because so many people are hanging their hat on stuff he says and I think they are going to get burned. Quite honestly, it's going to be a hot mess no matter what happens. I can already see it coming. It seems the world is just as split on him. I know people from outside the US who think he was one of the best presidents we ever had, and then I know others like you.
Play to earn has just been messy. There are a lot of moving parts and I think companies are still learning how to navigate all of them. Sadly, many have failed or are in the process of failing. As you said, even Splinterlands hasn't been able to sustain their success. Some of that has to do with the bear market which just adds another cog to the wheel for many companies.
