Immutable Weekly 'Rollup' - February 26

Hi Everyone -

Another crazy week in crypto / web3 with more momentum, NFT adoption across industries and exciting partnerships - can hardly keep up! 

For those new, welcome to my brief of all things Immutable, NFTs, Ethereum and L2s. Below are a few (brief) noteworthy announcements, updates and thought leadership that caught our team's attention this week.

Immutable Updates & Shoutouts

• Kongregate announced their partnership with Immutable X, building blockchain-first games on IMX's L2 🙌

• Starting this week, marketplaces powered by Immutable X will be able to set their own custom fees on orders. Read more on our ecosystem update here.

• Besides solving for slow transaction times and high gas fees, Immutable X has also solved for Order Fragmentation and sparse liquidity. Read this top-notch blog post from our CTO detailing Immutable's shared order book, available via our APIs.

What I'm reading/watching...

• Bankless Academy - Amazing resource for anyone keen to "learn the basics" on getting started in DeFi.

• Blockchains are Cities - Enjoyed this podcast that compares blockchains to cities, and asks the hard questions about security tradeoffs when choosing a blockchain.

• Axie Infinity has passed $4B in lifetime NFT trading volume...

As always, if you want to learn more about building on Immutable (or are attending NFT LA and/or GDC) feel free to give me a shout! 

Have a great weekend.

David
