Roblox Pays Young Builders + Why Web3 Gaming Falls Short

Roblox anchored the conversation as a working model of a consumer digital economy, with the Robux loop and creators getting paid at scale. The crew used that lens to explain why crypto gaming keeps missing, focusing on onboarding friction, UX, and whether the game is actually fun. They widened into distribution and the creator economy, arguing the clips pipeline is still the clearest path to attention and income in both gaming and crypto. Cap also framed 2026 with a quick poll on breakout categories, naming tokenization and RWAs, AI and autonomous agents, stablecoins and payments, plus privacy and zero knowledge. The show wrapped with giveaways and New Year gratitude.
