What an eventful week in the blockchain gaming space. From markets turning bullish, to the biggest hack in DeFi’s history, we were in for an emotional roller coaster!

The headlines of course are stolen by Sky Mavis and Axie Infinity. The hack affecting the Ronin Bridge forced the team to delay the release of the biggest Axie Infinity update, Axie Origin.

We also notice a rise in the Solana gaming ecosystem with many quality projects gaining traction… And the recent announcement that OpenSea will support Solana based NFTs will probably push the Solana projects even a step further.

Remember to stay safe out there, be careful of scams and hacks, but don’t forget to play and have fun!
