Illuvium co-founder warns crypto ‘meme games’ will bring ponzis, exploits

Warwick's warning is notable because it comes from inside crypto gaming rather than from a skeptic, giving it more weight than the usual outside criticism. The framing — meme games as memecoins with a game attached — suggests the speculative mechanics, not the gameplay, are driving the trend, which matters for players and builders alike. Whether the sector separates durable projects from the ponzi-style entrants, and how exploits shape that split, is the open question worth watching.
