写真を撮って稼ぐ「SNPIT」を通じて起こすあらたなムーブメントー大塚敏之インタビュー

What new appeal will "SNPIT" bring to you?

In recent years, as blockchain games have developed, the concept of "Play to Earn" has been established. Just as the hugely popular fitness app "STEPN" is called "Move to Earn," "X to Earn," a subdivision of Play to Earn, continues to increase its variations every day.

Among blockchain games, there is a title that has created a new concept of "Snap to Earn." It is "SNPIT" by GALLUSYS Co., Ltd. SNPIT is a blockchain that allows users to earn tokens by taking better photos and competing with other users. Since its release in December last year, the number of users has steadily increased, and in June of this year, trading of the unique token "SNPIT Token" began on overseas cryptocurrency exchanges.

SNPIT is expected to continue to show various developments in the future. How does Toshiyuki Otsuka, CEO of GALLUSYS, the company behind this notable title, view the current Web 3.0 field? We also asked him about the future of SNPIT and what kind of movement he wants to create through the game.

What do you think about the current Web 3.0 field?

Toshiyuki Otsuka (hereinafter Otsuka): More than Web 3.0, especially in the field of blockchain games, I am very attracted to the world where you can contribute to the product as a user rather than as a worker, and earn compensation by increasing the value of the product.

In addition, to achieve this, there are a wide variety of challenges that are different from traditional games, such as community, token design, laws, and UX, and I personally find it extremely fun to adjust them through trial and error.
