Bonus ep – Kickstarter announced they’re moving to Blockchain and people lost their minds. What does it mean with guest Jay Dragon

Hello and Welcome to The RPG Academy.  In this special bonus episode i’m joined by Jay Dragon ( @dragsky ) from Possum Creek Games to try and make sense of the fervor and fury from the TTRPG world about the recent announcement by Kickstarter that they will be moving their backend onto the Blockchain.

While no means a definitive answer, Jay helped me better understand what that means and why it could be harmful or at least as a minimum isn’t helpful and why many people are likely walking away from KS despite their being limited other resources for future TTRPG crowdfunding support.

At the end of the day, each person will need to decide for themselves and possibly project by project if they will host campaigns or support campaigns on Kickstarter.
