In this episode, we chat with Scott Sunarto, the founder of Argus Labs and former co-creator of Dark Forest. We begin with an overview of the current landscape of Crypto Gaming and the crypto gaming primitives Scott is excited about. We also talk about what most crypto gaming investors are getting wrong and the narratives within crypto gaming he disagrees with. We also discuss Argus Labs and why Argus is a gaming company first, not a picks and shovels infrastructure company. We also discuss Scott's mental model for the rollup stack, where the World Engine fits in, and discuss some unspoken truths about rollups, sequencers, and rollup value capture.

Vance Spencer is the Co-Founder of Framework Ventures, a VC firm that got its claim to fame by sticking around during the 2018-2020 bear market, going all-in on DeFi before we had a name for it, and taking risks and finding gems while everyone else fled the industry. This is Vance's 4th appearance on Bankless, because in addition to being a chad VC, he's also adept at measuring the markets and understanding metas, which is what we're looking to do here today. Bitcoin is down 66% from the top, but up 50% from the bottom! ETH Down 66% from the top, but up 75% from the bottom! Solana down 90%, but up 200% from the bottom! Meanwhile, Ethereum's L2 ecosystem is HOT. OP is hitting ATHs. RPL is at its highs in ETH terms, nearing highs in USD terms… Aptos is somehow at a 16B valuation. Question: Where are we???

Today we're covering a project in development that aims to be a blockchain version of conventional gaming distribution stores like Steam. Ultra is a protocol and gaming platform that seeks to disrupt the 140 billion dollar gaming industry by using blockchain technology to allow anyone to own and operate their own game distribution platform or digital goods trading service. With this model they plan to challenge the current market that is monopolized by industry leaders Google, Apple and Steam.
