Why did I start Gala in 2018?
My wife and I had been talking for a while how we wish we could be of service after I left Zynga for many years. During this time we had become to be aware of the vast gulf between the opportunities we had in the USA and the heart wrenching decisions many people around the world have to make in order to survive. Realizing that the secondary market for video games at that time was over 50b usd and the willingness of children in the USA and Europe to buy digital goods we thought what would happen if there was a easy and secure way for children in other parts of the world to sell their digital items to these other children with so much opportunity. We set out to achieve this mission and even though everyone in crypto has been having a rough time of it these last two years we did achieve something truly remarkable.
I think we can safely say that we are the only company ever to have given back more than it has made. I applaud companies that give a % of their profit to charity. But Gala can say that we gave 2b usd worth of crypto back to the community. Far far more than we made ourselves during that period.
I'm really proud of our company for that achievement. And with the opportunity given to us by Telegram I sense that we will have another chance here soon. I have said that our up coming token launch of $TREZ will be 100% to the community and market makers/exchanges. That's 0% to the team... I hope to hear stories like we heard with $GALA about how families were able to buy a home for the first time, how medical procedures were finally within reach and how some where able to finally get out of devastating poverty.
Lets do it again!
