In 2022 something big happened. ⚽ FIFA and EA SPORTS ended their 30-year partnership, a split that shocked the gaming world and set the stage for two bold, very different visions for the future of football gaming. FIFA is going all-in on blockchain with FIFA Rivals (by Mythical Games), launching in 2025. The goal is to give players true ownership of their in-game assets. Think player cards and collectibles you can trade or sell beyond the game. Meanwhile, EA Sports has stuck to its roots with EA Sports FC, doubling down on immersive gameplay. Without FIFA’s licensing fees, EA has reinvested in the core experience, and fans are loving it. As someone deeply invested in how gaming and blockchain intersect, this story hits close to home. Here’s what we find fascinating: This rivalry isn’t just about gaming. It highlights two massive trends: 1. Blockchain: A game-changer for fan engagement, turning players into stakeholders. 2. Gameplay Innovation: Proving that quality and consistency never go out of style. But here’s the catch: Blockchain only works when it’s invisible. Players don’t want to deal with complicated setups, they just want great experiences. That’s why solutions like Venly’s GSDK stand out. We make blockchain integration seamless, letting the tech power the experience without getting in the way of the fun. For us, this split is more than just a fascinating case in gaming history. It’s a lesson in:  - ✨Innovation  - ✨Timing - ✨Staying true to your strengths So, what do you think? Are you team blockchain-powered innovation or team gameplay-driven perfection? We’d love to hear your thoughts as gaming continues to evolve!

What does trust mean for your business? Let's think about that for a minute. Blockchain is transforming industries by enhancing transparency and trust. Walmart's innovative use of blockchain to trace food from farm to table is a perfect example of how this technology can reshape supply chains. But is this just the beginning? Could blockchain become the ultimate tool for building trust in every sector?

Cross-border payments process 3.4 trillion transactions annually, valued at $1.8 quadrillion. Yet, delays, high fees, and security risks remain significant barriers. According to McKinsey, these inefficiencies cost businesses billions each year. Mastercard and J.P. Morgan are addressing these challenges head-on through a groundbreaking collaboration. By integrating Mastercard’s Multi-Token Network (MTN) with J.P. Morgan’s Kinexys platform, they’re leveraging blockchain to tackle decades-old inefficiencies in international settlements. What does blockchain bring to the table? Efficiency: MTN and Kinexys streamline settlements, avoiding delays caused by time zones or manual reconciliations. Cost Reduction: Tokenized deposits minimize reliance on intermediaries, saving significant fees. Transparency: Blockchain ensures every transaction is verifiable and tamper-proof. This collaboration proves blockchain isn’t just a buzzword—it’s solving real-world problems. At Venly, we’re proud to work with Mastercard as part of their Start Path Blockchain and Digital Assets program, exploring how blockchain brings value across industries. 🔗 Read more about our collaboration with Mastercard: Link We believe blockchain’s strength lies in making advanced technology accessible.

🚀 Bitcoin is hovering around $100k which brings back clout for the underlying technology! Chris Dixon defines blockchain as “computers that establish inviolable rules and the foundation to build a better internet.” Andreas M. Antonopoulos described it as “a banking system in your pocket.” Honestly? I think they’re both right. Andreas’s talk might be 6 years old, but it’s as relevant today as ever. Blockchain is delivering on its promise of decentralization, accessibility, and inclusion—putting tools in people’s hands to change lives. #crypto #MobileBanking #Bitcoin #Fintech ['#FinancialInclusion', '#MobileBanking', '#Fintech', '#Bitcoin', '#BankingTechnology', '#EconomicInclusion', '#Unbanked', '#TechnologyforGood', '#DigitalFinance', '#Cryptocurrency']
