The Immutable Christ - Hebrews 13:8
Jon Jordan and BlockchainGamer.biz editor Jenny Jordan talk through the week's news including:[0:25] Immutable and Ubisoft have announced Might & Magic Fates.[1:05] Ubisoft have been making blockchain games since 2017/18.[2:35] Might & Magic feels like a reasonable IP to experiment with a web3 TCG.[3:08] But do we need another TCG? Another web3 TCG?[5:40] Web3 will be optional for players and won't give gameplay advantages.[7:55] Ready Makers Inc's lawsuit against Ready Maker (Gibraltar) has been thrown out.[16:22] Did the lawsuit impact the price of the PLAY or would it have gone down that much anyway?[17:16] Pixels is the first game to announce it's using Apptokens.[18:10] Apptokens are an attempt to stop token holders immediately cashing out.[20:40] This means the new vPIXEL token can be given away without impacting the price of PIXEL.[22:08] More developers are talking about using Apptokens, including Sky Mavis.[25:20] Mythical Games' FIFA Rivals is going into pre release in some countries in May.[29:41] Jon's been enjoying The British Museum experience in The Sandbox.

Jon Jordan and BlockchainGamer.biz editor Jenny Jordan talk through the week's news including:[2:10] A year ago, Immutable launched The Main Quest. People have been collecting gems ever since.[3:45] However, it wasn't clear what the purpose or value of these gems was.[4:10] Main Quest has been renamed Perpetual Rewards. You can earn more gems by playing games. [5:05] Your wallet has to be verified by phone number and social login. [5:34] You buy one key per wallet for 500 gems that drops random rewards, mainly IMX tokens.[6:51] In the first week, I got an epic key, which dropped around $30 of IMX. [8:00] This week, the total prize pool was $230,000-worth of IMX. It drops to $90,000 next week. [9:08] The top wallet in week 1 won around $9,000 of IMX.[10:26] How effective will this system be in terms of engaging players in Immutable games?[11:49] It is part of a wider trend to target rewards to your most committed players c.f. Pixels.[13:16] Immortal Rising 2 has seen a 91% decline in DAUWs since its IMT token launch.[14:52] Treasure and Aavegotchi have both announced they are shutting down their L3s.[17:07] Companies launched L3s in 2024 because they could sell new tokens to investors.[17:50] But these chains cost money to operate and their games didn't have (m)any users.[19:35[]Treasure said its chain cost $450,000 a year to operate.[23:48] An investor has tweeted Off The Grid has +200,000 MAUs and +$14M in annual runrate.[27:09] Jon is conflicted about Off The Grid; "I want it to work but there's a lack of transparency".[32:34] KGeN has announced it's setting up its MENA HQ in Bahrain. [36:20] Shrapnel announced more details of its Chinese expansion including a separate marketplace. [37:12] It has gained a rare license allowing Chinese players can spend fiat money to buy NFTs.[38:28] Chinese players will be playing in the same servers as all other players, however.

Jon Jordan talks to Marco van den Heuvel, the co-founder and CEO of Beam about the formation of what was originally called Merit Circle as an Axie guild in 2021, then becoming a game investment DAO, and which rebranded as Beam in 2024 as it moved to focus on gaming infrastructure, something it will double down in 2025 with the launch of the Abu Dhabi-based Beam Ventures fund and accelerator. [2:15] Marco's journey in crypto starting with Bitcoin in 2017.[3:30] Started his first company around crypto community management.[3:45] Merit Circle started in 2021 when Axie Infinity blew up.[7:35] Merit Circle started as a guild breeding Axie but quickly expanded to other games.[9:26] It also moved from play-to-earn to become an investment DAO and now running Beam.[12:07] How much of this shift away from P2E was luck[12:44] The data showed that demand for Axies was dropping fast in fall 2021.[15:55] Did Merit Circle invest too widely? Would it have been better to put 200% into 50% of deals?[20:54] Why Merit Circle started making games like Edenhorde.[22:00] We're not a game developer. We intend to become a leading player for gaming infrastructure.[24:35] Why Merit Circle rebranded to Beam. [27:25] It also caused a strong upward valuation on the BEAM token.[28:55] How does Beam compete with Ronin, Immutable, Mythos etc?[30:27] Beam's tech stack can support multiple blockchains such as Immutable, Sophon etc.[31:58] What games should we check out? Trial Xtreme Freedom, Forgotten Playland, Rumble Arcade[34:20] Abu Dhabi-based Beam Ventures fund and accelerator is gearing up for launch in 2025.[37:56] How significant will AI agents be for blockchain gaming?

Jon Jordan and BlockchainGamer.biz editor Jenny Jordan talk through the week's news including:[2:07] GDC 2025 was quiet and not just for web3 gaming.[4:06] Immutable's financials for the period FY22/23 were released. [5:13] It lost $50 million on revenue of $27 million.[6:20] This compared to a loss of $31 million on sales of $19 million in FY21/22.[8:35] It still has around $140 million in cash and liquid crypto in the bank.[15:05] Immutable's revenues are rising but clearly it also needs to cut costs and have a hit game. [17:43] At least six blockchain games are now developing for console.[26:17] Gabe Leydon was talking up Apptokens at GDC 2025. Jon loves Apptokens. [30:26] Other blockchain games are already using similar features to those in the Apptokens standard.[33:20] Gabe's view is that crypto has become web2-focused. It needs to be less focused on CEXs.[36:04] Jurassic Park dinos are coming to The Sandbox in Alpha Season 5. [40:24] YGG is launching a simple Pudgy Penguins-themed Monopoly Go-style game on Abstract.

Just awarded $100,000.[3:22] The second game in the universe is AI experiment Colony, but information is limited.[4:07] Sanctuary is their third game; an extraction shooter. A hard genre to pull-off.[7:20] WorldWide Agents' AI platform went live this week; first time to stake MOJO tokens.[11:03] Wemade's Night Crows game is about to hit its first anniversary: Jon's about to hit level 45.

[7:05] Improbable has also launched a new blockchain called Somnia. [8:38] It claims to handle 1 million transactions per second. [9:48] Why do we need another blockchain? The dial-up vs broadband comparison. [11:37] Improbable's CEO thinks web3 gaming is too insular and focused on token price. [14:45] Wemade's latest web3 MMORPG Legends of Ymir is #1 on Google Play [17:30] Wemade has been successful with web3-gated MMORPG like Mir and Night Crows. [19:10] These games are grindy.

Resting on the Immutable
If we are to navigate the variabilities of this present life with confidence and a godly attitude then we must trust in the immutability of God and his good overarching plan.
The Weight of Gold, the Lightness of GracePoverty of spirit—what a strange, thin phrase it's become, brittle in the mouths of modern men who've never walked barefoot on cold earth, never felt the raw ache of want, not just in the belly but in the soul. To be poor in spirit isn't a matter of meek nods and saintly sighs. It's not weakness, not a bowed head for show. It's an emptiness carved out deep enough for something greater to fill. Like the hollow in the earth where the seed falls, dark and unseen, but ready. The ache isn't the end; it's the beginning—the ache is where grace rushes in.But we've grown used to surfaces, to sheen and shimmer. We're magpies, dazzled by the glitter of things that promise fullness but offer only echoes. The clink of coins, the soft glow of screens, each flickering to distract from the hollow. Gold glitters because it reflects light, but it holds none of its own. Stack it high, let it spill from chests and accounts, yet it's cold in the hand, colder in the heart. A man can die rich and still be empty, his soul an unfurnished room.The old ones knew better—the story-tellers and seers with their feet thick in mud, their nostrils seasoned by turf smoke, and their minds lit with stars. They spoke of virtues and vices not as moral checklists, but as living forces. Not metaphors, but beings, spirits woven into the warp and weft of the world. Thomas Aquinas saw this, called them agents of divine power, streaks of grace running like veins of silver through the rock of creation. They're not just habits to be picked up like good manners; they're channels, conduits for the breath of God Himself, working miracles, steadying the natural order, ensuring that His will isn't just spoken but walked in, not just whispered but stitched into the very cloth of reality.Take humility. Today it's mistaken for softness, for a kind of cowardice dressed up as politeness. But real humility is a weight—a gravity that pulls you down to the ground, roots you where you stand. It's not the sag of a broken man but the stance of one who knows where he comes from and where he's going. The proud man floats, puffed up, untethered, carried by every whim. But the humble man knows he's small, and that knowing makes him strong—an anchor in the seabed, steady while the waters swirl round. Humility isn't self-loathing; it's the lifeline which keeps our soul from being cast adrift.And virginity—what a word to drop into the middle of this age of excess. Not just bodies untouched, but hearts undivided. The modern mind scoffs, as if restraint were a relic, as if to keep something sacred were a kind of fear. But ancient peoples saw it differently. They saw it as power—not absence, but presence. The unploughed field holds the richest soil. The sky, when it's clear of clouds, reveals the deepest stars. Virginity isn't a gap; it's a vessel uncracked, ready to brim over with something holy.Modesty, too, has been gutted, turned into a checklist about hems and sleeves, rules for what should be covered rather than a wisdom about what should be treasured. But modesty isn't about hiding; it's about holding. The art of mystery is knowing that not every treasure should be laid bare. The pearl keeps its beauty because it stays hidden in the shell. The fire burns hottest when it's banked, not scattered to every wind. Modesty is the virtue that keeps the sacred, sacred—it shields the flame from the careless gust.Prudence—now there's a word that's lost its place at the table. It's been misunderstood as timidity, as fence-sitting, when really it's the sharpest of knives. Prudence is clear sight, not the squint of fear but the wide-eyed gaze that sees things as they are and as they can be. It's the captain reading the winds, knowing when to hoist the sail and when to reef it. The prudent man doesn't avoid storms; he studies the sky, knows the waters, feels the shift in the air. Prudence isn't caution—it's mastery over impulse, the wisdom to see that not every current or causeway leads to home.Sobriety—often mistaken for dullness, as if the sober man is the one missing out while the world spins in bright colors around him. But sobriety isn't the absence of joy; it's the presence of depth. It's laughter that doesn't need to be loud to be true, delight that isn't chased but dwells quietly. The sober heart isn't parched—it's steady. It drinks from a deeper well, one that doesn't run dry when the party's over.And wisdom—that old, thorny vine, twisting through time, often ignored but always there, like roots beneath the frost line. Wisdom isn't just knowing things; it's understanding the weight of them. It's the difference between holding a golden cup and knowing the cup's story—where it's been, what it's weathered, what it means. Wisdom carries the scent of the earth, the hush of old woods, the ache of truths learned the hard way. It doesn't shout. It waits.Truth, too, has been twisted, turned into a weapon or a fashion. But truth isn't a sword to be brandished; it's a mirror to be faced. Truth, ultimately, is the God-man Himself: Jesus. Not an idea, but a person. Not a theory, but a face. You meet Him first in the quiet of your own heart before you ever hold Him up to others. He doesn't argue. He is. Immutable as a mountain, tender as bread broken in trembling hands.And now… let's stand in the bright, flickering carnival of social media—our modern marketplace of vanity and outrage. Here, virtues are relics, dusty and irrelevant, wingless. Who speaks with modesty when the whole platform is designed to scream, “Look at me”? Who practices prudence in a world that rewards the quickest take, the loudest voice? Who seeks wisdom when attention spans are measured in seconds and outrage pays better than understanding?But maybe that's the point. Maybe in a world addicted to spectacle, the quiet, steady reliance on the virtues is the true rebellion. Maybe faith, humility, chastity—words that sound antiquated and out of place—are exactly what the modern soul is starving for. Virtues aren't quaint. They're radical. They're not soft—they're seismic. They shake the foundations of a world built on fleeting applause.The second Reformation, if it's coming—and I feel it rumbling beneath our feet—won't be born from cleverness or novelty. It'll rise from the old truths we've buried but never killed. It won't be a revolution of new ideas but of rediscovery, of remembering the deep roots we thought we'd outgrown. It'll come when we're not paying attention, a seed cracking open in the dark, roots first, reaching down before it reaches up.Because the nature of things doesn't change. The soul still hungers for meaning, no matter how much noise we feed it. The heart still aches for beauty, even when we drown it in distraction. The spirit still longs for God, even when we pretend we've moved beyond such things.Virtues aren't artifacts. They're anchors. They hold us fast when the tides of culture shift and swirl. They're not rules to follow but companions on the road, agents of grace, walking with us, strong as old growth trees, steady as the northern star. They're the breath of God in the bones of the world, the heartbeat beneath the noise.The rich, the powerful, the influencers with their curated lives and glossy feeds—they rise, wave-like, dramatic and loud, catching the light for a moment. But waves fall. Always. The sea remains.So in the quiet, when the screens go dark, when the noise fades, ask yourself: What remains? What endures when the applause dies, when the spotlight moves on?The answer has always been the same. It's not found in what you've gathered, but in what you've been given by God. Not in how brightly you've shone, but in how deeply you've rooted yourself in His Christ. Not in the fleeting, but in the faithful kindness of your Maker.In the end, it's not that the world has changed so much. It's that we've forgotten how to see it. The virtues were never lost. We just stopped looking. —D.

What does it mean that God is immutable? What does it mean that God does not change? What does it mean that God is sovereign? What does it mean God is entirely in control of everything?

EPISODE 207 There are many times in your personal life where you face a situation that you cannot change. Such a situation is called an “Immutable Reality.” What is an Immutable Reality? An Immutable Reality is "a fixed set of facts for a situation that is unlikely to undergo any real change in any respect, no matter what decisions are made or what actions are taken." What are Some Types of Immutable Realities? A breakup, betrayal by a significant other, divorce, death, loss of a job, loss of living situation, religious differences, cultural differences, political differences, society norms differences, etc. are all examples of Immutable Realities. What can you do when you face an Immutable Reality in your own life? If cannot change the Immutable Reality, then you must change yourself. What techniques can you use for changing yourself when you are facing an Immutable Reality? While immutable realities can feel limiting to you, they always offer opportunities for growth, acceptance, and creativity. By understanding and embracing immutable realities, you can redirect your focus and energy toward creating a positive impact and personal transformations in your own life.

Jon Jordan and BlockchainGamer.biz editor Jenny Jordan discuss all the news from 2024. [2:16] The success of Pixels was an ongoing trend in 2024; but it wasn't always about DAUWs. [2:35] Heroes of Mavia was the first big game and token launch of 2024 but it didn't scale. [4:10] In 2024, we saw a lot of blockchain games launching through app stores but no big hits. [6:10] Browser vs app stores and PC gaming stores remains a key business decision. [8:44] A lot of meme-y game coins such as MON, PORTAL, CARV, XAI launched in Q1. [11:30] There was a lot of news about chain migration - so many new L2 and L3 chains. [13:00] In Q2, there was a big change in sentiment with game token prices tanking. [14:11] The rise of KOLs, who encouraged retail crypto to invest in new tokens with often bad results. [16:05] The rise of Telegram and TON as a strong marketing channel for blockchain games. [17:46] Another nascent year for Immutable: Guild of Guardians was not a success. [22:17] But in Immutable's defence... 4 million Immutable Passport wallet sign-ups. [28:28] In Q3, the issue of bots became a problem esp. in respect to airdrops and token rewards. [30:09] What are you trying to do with your blockchain game when it comes to giving out value? [32:04] Does it matter if bots or AI agents are paying $10 to play your game? [32:30] The other thing in Q3 was the start of successful games on Ronin - Wild Forest, Lumiterra etc. [34:56] Pretty much every game launched on Ronin has got +100,000 DAUWs in testing. [37:19] Should we view console game Off The Grid as a success? [44:22] Whatever happened to The Sandbox? [45:25] CCP Game's EVE Frontier is now in closed alpha testing. [46:59] What's significant is these projects are very serious about the value of blockchain in games. [49:45] More generally, the US presidential election was the clear pivot point for crypto in 2024. [52:51] Investment into the sector was down on 2023 but around $1 billion.
This episode will encourage, support, give insight, wisdom and revelation to why we wouldn't want to operate with living in negative thoughts because it could keep us in bondage to that which is untrue and fall into the beliefs of despair, hopelessness and defeat, which is the mutable laws of this world. Everything about God is Immutable so what God says about us is unchanging. The only way it becomes the opposite of what God says is for us to believe the lie of Satan.

I give thanks for eight years of marriage to Lisa. I bemoan a world without reason, where affirmations need no evidence, puzzle over Rachel and Leah bartering over Jacob, see Abraham repeat an earlier sin and rejoice over the immutability of God.
The boys are back, this time to talk about a few items of news in the FOSS world.
Today, I'm joined by WordPress security maestro Tim Nash. I'll bet he's never been called that before! He's here to explore his tactics for securing and managing WordPress website deployments. Tim delves into the concept of immutable operating systems, advocating for read-only core files to boost security, particularly for high-traffic, enterprise environments. He also addresses deployment strategies, such as red-green deployments and the utilisation of orchestration tools like Kubernetes. Practical solutions for file management, database efficiency, and mitigating DDoS attacks are highlighted, alongside standard practices like blocking PHP execution in upload directories. The episode offers a blend of technical insights and fun anecdotes, making it essential listening (!!!) for anyone looking to enhance their WordPress site's security and performance. Get the tinfoil hat ready, and a large mug of coffee, just in case!
