I’ve spent weeks deep in the weeds in @Treasure_DAO ($MAGIC). Here’s why I think it's a fascinating socio-economic experiment happening in real-time & something to watch for this year.
🧵👇
2/14 Treasure DAO’s vision is to be a decentralized game studio, kind of like a Nintendo for the Metaverse. Blockchain game developers will be able to leverage Treasure DAO’s infrastructure and community to bootstrap game universes much quicker.
3/14 Treasure DAO has five main product lines at various stages of development:
1️⃣ Bridgeworld (live)
2️⃣ Smolverse (live)
3️⃣ Life (launching Apr)
4️⃣ Treasure (Marketplace)
5️⃣ Trove (Marketplace, Q2 2022)
4/14 It is an evolving experiment in composability, where NFTs can be used in multiple universes, and have diff utility in each of them. Game creators can tap into each other's work and communities by using existing tooling and NFTs.
5/14 Example: Stamina potions earned in @LifeNFT_ can be used to speed up crafting times in a Bridgeworld, an entirely different game with different teams. Interoperability becomes a reality. Supply and demand become complex equations, similar to in the real world.
6/14 I can see a future where different game universes in Treasure converge, developing into an ever-growing world rich in lore.
Similar to Magic: The Gathering, where each expansion comes with its own themes & characters but united by similar elements (5 colors of magic)
7/14 Unlike many P2E games / GameFi like which tend to be solo (you’re mostly doing your own thing to optimize winnings), games on Treasure often have a social-coordinative element. 
i.e. if we cooperate we can win more together
8/14 Example: Harvesters on Bridgeworld (launching soon) allow stacking of Extractors (items) for cumulative bonuses for everyone staked on the harvester. Guilds like @MagicDragon_DAO have formed to maximise yields for everyone who shares & builds with them.
9/14 As an open ecosystem built off the idea of participation, many games will be powered by $MAGIC, but not built/run by the core team. TreasureDAO is the coordinatoooor, onboarding new projects into its vision & helping them understand how to leverage Treasure’s infrastructure
10/14 This model could prove to be quite scalable, and one that can hasten development speed and user growth. Analogy: a more hands-on version of the iTunes app store. Platform >> App
11/14 Treasure DAO’s achievements over the past five months have been impressive. However, its future success will depend on its ability to build and attract fun & engaging games to the platform! (and other factors I write about in my report)
12/14 It's wonderful to see Treasure DAO rising grounds-up through a community-driven, open development approach. This espouses the principles that propelled Loot Project into the limelight last year
