ABOUT THIS EPISODE

On today’s Talking Tokens episode, Jacquelyn sat down with Dylan Abruscato, the creator of Crypto The Game (acq. by Uniswap).

Crypto The Game wrapped up its third season in March with the winner taking home the prize pot of 71.6 ETH, worth about $150K at the time.

They discuss how he co-created a game on top of crypto rails with no prior web3 education, how his past experiences working at HQ Trivia and SNL shaped his POV, creating a game people actually want to play and more.
