President of Animoca Brands: The United States is not 100% opposed to NFT

Yat Siu, the CEO of Animoca Brands, said in a recent interview that the United States is not 100% against NFTs, but rather that the voices against NFTs are the loudest. Yat Siu believes that 2023 will be the "clean-up year" and stated that "Animoca Brands has already cleaned up a lot of content that needed to be cleaned up this year." He pointed out that 2024 will be a strong year with opportunities for rebirth, as 3A game companies such as Ubisoft, Zynga, and Square Enix are still investing in blockchain games. Yat Siu also stated that even today, people are still launching NFTs on Ethereum, one reason being that Ethereum provides the largest value distribution. Currently, the market is still in the early stages of this field, so there are still many opportunities for success, and the value that Web3 users can generate is much higher.
