[08:15] Verse8 has 200,000 DAUs and 3.5 million MAUs.[10:40] We didn't design this as a web3 project but there's potential for degen experiments.[12:52] Verse8 could be “YouTube for games” because everyone can now make games.

You can't make open-world MMORPGs.[20:44] Verse8's moat is its high performance WebGL game engine. [22:50] Everyone ger $10 of free tokens but then users have to pay for additional usage.

Hosted by Steve Buttram with Kevin Lee, Michael Shearon, and Paxton Redd, this week's episode brings a fun, honest look at Easter traditions—from egg hunts and Reese's eggs to family moments that make the day special—but it quickly shifts into something deeper. As the team reflects on Easter at The Bruce and across both campuses, they unpack the powerful message of “The Garden of the Skull,” where death gives way to life and God meets us in our darkest moments. With stories of spontaneous baptisms and real-life transformation, the conversation highlights how Easter isn't just something we celebrate—it's something we're invited into. The discussion moves into a meaningful reflection on “graves into gardens,” exploring how seasons of hardship often feel like endings but are actually places where God is quietly at work. Through personal stories and biblical insight, the team reminds us that even when life feels silent or uncertain, God is preparing something greater—both in us and around us. It's a hopeful, faith-building reminder to trust Him in every season and live with eternity in mind as we walk forward.
