Tomorrow marks a huge milestone for $CHECK and the beginning of a new chapter for @AnichessGame. Over the past two years, the team has been building with unwavering conviction through the bull and bear. While many gaming projects came and went, the team never stopped building -

Cutting through the noise, I see it as a net positive for the space that we’re having these kinds of discussions between respected players in their fields. However, it's misleading to compare @Figure with those vaporware RWA projects that inflate TVL metrics just to launch https://t.co/qzBooSWk0U

Congrats to @Figure on its Nasdaq IPO - proof that natively on-chain RWAs, which are proven to be faster, cheaper, and safer, are becoming mainstream. Extremely excited to soon make these institutional-grade assets accessible to investors everywhere through @NUVAFinance. Stay https://t.co/CMWy36SnPI
