Yo! 🎮 

The genius behind Farmville, Amitt Mahajan, and his squad just secured a cool $33M to cook up some next-level Web3 games with his company, Proof of Play! 💸💻 It’s all about getting players into the game without the blockchain headache, you feel?

 

So, this dope announcement dropped on Sept. 21, and it’s got the gaming world buzzing 🐝. Amitt Mahajan is the big brain CEO, and Emmett Shear, one of the dudes who started Twitch, is on the board too! 🤯

 

Big names like Chris Dixon from a16z and Neil Mehta from Greenoaks led the funding wave 🌊, and peeps like Naval Ravikant, Balaji Srinivasan, and the Twitch founders jumped in too! Even Web3 biggies like Anchorage Digital, Mercury, Firebase, Zynga, and Alchemy are on board!

 

Proof of Play ain’t just talking; they dropped a closed beta of their first banger, Pirate Nation, back in December 2022 🏴‍☠️. They’re promising to crash through the typical Web3 gaming barriers and get players lost in the gameplay ASAP! 🎲

 

It’s not just about the games tho, it’s about going fully decentralized 🔄. Pirate Nation is a “Forever Game,” running without needing any external servers or creators! Plus, they’re planning to open-source their tech framework down the line for even more decentralization 🤘.

 

The squad at Proof of Play is stacked with pros from Epic Games, Zynga, EA, Activision, and Google 🌐. And in 2023, it’s like multimillion-dollar funding rounds are the new norm for Web3 companies 🚀. Even CCP Games and Hyperplay have been securing bags to push the gaming world forward!

 

Can’t wait to see the gaming revolution these minds are gonna unleash! 🕹️🌐 Keep it locked!
