- What makes on-chain games unique? @Bowenddex and I have compiled 5 paradigms of on-chain games and ways each could be over/underrated, with examples. Special thanks to @0xAikoDai, @0xkydo, and @NicoVereecke for review.

- sat there one day thinking "what's the fastest way we can spend away @BainCapCrypto's money?" reached conclusion to give it to duper players. but might as well make it a lil fun doing so. introducing Duper Bowl. huge +EV, made with both adrenaline and flexibility in mind.
