Everybody noticed that little wake-up call this week. Cryptocurrencies were going up in value, as a result abandoned Whatsapp groups came back alive and parents started talking again about bitcoin. Nope. It’s still not dead. This technology is here to stay, and we keep covering this revolution from the trenches. When it comes to blockchain gaming, NFTs and crypto art this has been an interesting week. We’ve seen crypto art moving into gaming and into virtual reality.
