✅ Last Week’s Summary
Decentral Games hosted LandVault’s first metaverse event yesterday, which included an album drop from Richard Vagner, a 10 POAP scavenger hunt, an NFT giveaway from several LandVault partners, and a Texas Hold’em poker tournament!
The event had over 300 concurrent participants and also set a DG record for most simultaneous poker players at just over 50:
Last week’s development progress included key updates to poker and the website.
Poker Updates
The team continued heavy internal testing of crypto poker, finalizing the last few optimizations to implement before officially rolling it out to the public. Additionally, improved disconnect logic is now live so players will not be disconnected while jumping at the table.
You can hop in to play poker here. To sign up to compete for crypto prizes in our daily community poker tournaments at 12pm EST and 8pm EST, check out the Discord channel.
