Quotes to Remember by Sebastien Borget

1. On the future of gaming and governance

“In the future of gaming, players will not only participate in creating content and the economy, but also in voting and establishing the rules. Governance power to the player is where we are all evolving.”

2. On Sandbox’s mission

“Our mission is to empower anyone to become a creator. That vision started by offering accessible, no-code tools so that anyone can start making content on their own.”

3. On digital ownership vs centralized platforms

“Unlike Fortnite, Minecraft, or Roblox where nothing really belongs to you, Sandbox allows true digital ownership. What you create is yours, and you can monetize it inside and outside the platform.”

4. On media perception vs realit

“The media may say the metaverse is dead, but behind the scenes the product and technology keep evolving and getting better everyday.”

5. On global culture in the metaverse

“An experience made from Turkey, Thailand, or Indian can have the same success as one from the top franchise brands. That inclusivity and diversity is one of our strengths.”

Closing Note

People assume that the metaverse is slowly and gradually fading away but as Sandbox founder said in the podcast, it is far from fading but it is evolving instead. There have been more than 6 million wallets, hundreds of live creator-made games and partnerships that include celebrities, entertainment franchises, and global brands. The main aim of the platform is to build an economy that is driven by the creators. Sandbox is focusing on increasing accessibility via no-code tools, providing true digital ownership via blockchain, and a vibrant ecosystem where both players and creators can co-exist and shine.
