Animoca Brands co-founder and chairman Yat Siu has urged for more developers to enter the Web3 space, warning that without “choice” there can be no “decentralized environment.”

Siu also noted that added that although many developers aren’t necessarily “blockchain versed”, “they’re keen on the idea” of moving into the space, again stressing the need for more developers to come into the space in order to offer Web3 users more options:
Asked whether blockchain developers should be focused on competition or collaboration, Yiu emphasized that he “doesn’t want any [Web3 projects] to do badly”, because that would mean that “we have less choice.”
