In this thread, fellow substack user & friend touches upon Ubisoft’s history in web3, and their newly announced game a TCG game.
In this thread, a fellow Substack user and a friend of mine
delves into Ubisoft's involvement in web3 and their recently announced game, ChampionsVerse, a trading card game (TCG).While we haven't seen much about it yet, TCG games are well-suited for NFT integration due to the concepts of ownership and rarity, opening up possibilities for various monetization methods.
I'm eager to see what Ubisoft has in store for us, but we must also bear in mind that this announcement comes at a weird time. Ubisoft is currently going through a difficult period, undergoing company reorganization (once again) and needing to save 200 million euros. Additionally, the NFT and web3 gaming market is facing its own challenges at the moment.

How Money Works is hands down one of my absolute favorite YouTube channels. Seriously, it's top-notch.
In their latest video, the creator takes on a pressing issue that plagues the platform: the prevalence of finance influencers peddling unrealistic dreams of wealth.

Allegedly, AI programs such as ChatGPT offer avenues to generate income online through tasks like graphic design, coding, and content creation.
However, proficiency in coding, writing, and digital media creation necessitates a significant investment of time, effort, talent, and experience.
There exist several reasons why AI programs cannot lead individuals to riches.
Notably, AI-generated content on YouTube fails to match the quality produced by genuine creators. Given that monetizing YouTube channels requires a certain number of subscribers and watch hours, most channels that do generate revenue only make a few dollars per day.
