Ilman Shazhaev, founder and CEO of the upcoming Bitcoin hero shooter Farcana, will attend the Istanbul Blockchain Week on August 13th and 14th. Shazhaev will participate in two panels, speaking on Esports, Web3, gaming, AI, and more.
The Panels: Challenges And Current State of Web3 Gaming
On August 13th, Shazhaev will join Web3 Esports leaders Damian Bartlett and Sarthak ‘Zatakster’ Aiyappa to discuss the challenges of building a Web3-based game in the modern environment, such as funding, establishing a player base, marketing, and achieving sustainable success.
As Farcana’s leader — and an avid player himself, having ranked among the top ten players worldwide — Shazhaev can provide a unique perspective on these challenges. Working on Farcana, he’s been leveraging his expertise in how machine learning algorithms and AI tools affect the development of gaming environments and help build better experiences.
Farcana has successfully listed its NFT collections on popular marketplaces like OpenSea and its $FAR token on ByBit ahead of its full launch. The project has successfully attracted investors and leveraged partnerships, pushing forward novel technologies and approaches in gaming.
The following day, Shazhaev will speak on the main stage regarding the current and future state of Web3 gaming, joined by the CEOs and co-founders of other top gaming projects. The rise of play-to-earn and decentralized game models and the regulatory challenges many decentralized gaming projects face will be among the key discussion topics.
