Chris Trottier (npub1jeq…jglm) I contacted Atari SA a few weeks ago saying I loved their new releases & stewardship of the Atari brand, but I felt their shady attempts at releasing Atari-themed NFTs & cryptocurrency made them look like "scammers out to make a few bucks at the expense of their fans."
A week later, they removed the "web3" link from their masthead. They appear to still be working on AtariX, their vaguely web3 brand, but much less prominently. I hope they ditch the blockchain crap entirely.
