Microsoft Gaming CEO: Gamers don’t like the metaverse
Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer says he believes gamers have been in the metaverse for 30 years, but understands why some are still apprehensive at this point.
Answering Bloomberg Studio 1.0 on August 26, he said that gamers do not “understand” the metaverse because this new technology is something they have been experimenting with in the game for too many years.
“It’s not surprising to me that gamers can look at the metaverse and think…I’ve got my own avatar, I’ve been able to go into a shared world and I’ve had verbal conversations.” , he said.
He also said he was “cautious” about some trends, including playing for money, because they create “a working force among players for certain players to make money”.
Spencer has previously criticized blockchain gaming for money and NFTs, and Microsoft has issued a regulation when their platform was being used for a “mistaken” project.

Considering the recent discussions surrounding the de-assignment of DAI digital currency to USD Coin due to the ban on Tornado Cash, MakerDAO co-founder Rune Christensen told the community that floating DAI could be an option. choose for decentralized self-organization (DAO).

“Suppression with digital currency can happen without prior notice and with no resilience even to innocent legitimate users. This violates two core assumptions we use to assess the risk of risk-weighted assets, making the threat from authorities much more severe.”
He suggested that “a decentralization path must be chosen, as well as Dai’s intention and purpose.” And “The only option accordingly is to limit the attack surface by reducing exposure to risk weighted assets to the maximum fixed percentage of total collateral, which requires float out of the USD”.
Currently 50% of DAI is backed by USDC, according to data from daistats.
