Investment thesis
Yat Siu argues that the open metaverse — defined as the collection of decentralized experiences granting participants genuine digital property rights via Web3 and blockchain — has emerged stronger after the 2023-2024 crypto downturn. He emphasizes digital ownership through fungible tokens and NFTs, play-and-earn economic models, growing DAO treasuries, and the convergence of AI with blockchain. Through Animoca Brands, he highlights portfolio and ecosystem projects across gaming, education, and broader Web3 infrastructure, predicting 2025 as a pivotal growth year for property rights in online life.
