Animoca Brands’ director of strategic partnerships, James C.K. Ho, stated:
As true proponents of decentralisation and fair wealth distribution, we see Amasa as playing a pivotal role in mass adoption of the earning potential web3 and DeFi provides. This will create increased value, not only for Animoca’s portfolio of projects but for the entire blockchain ecosystem.
The engagement from top blockchain venture capitals and leading figures in the space signifies the importance of the project. Also, the participants see the relevance of the Amsa project to Web 3.0 and DeFi. Additionally, support from these partners will push Amasa to build rapid connections within the expanding non-fungible tokens (NFTs) space. Amasa will also build fast relationships among metaverse builders.

I am all about bringing communities together to earn via blockchain-based economies. Amasa will bring more users into the space and give existing users additional options and incentives to increase the value of their time spent in these economies.
