Dear Mariela, I am very happy to meet you. We will also have Pixpel serve as her sponsor for the Prague Games & TECH Summit delegate Her Bag. Could you please introduce yourself and your role at Pixpel to our readers?
Hi guys! Thank you so much for having me. I'm Mariela Rojas, Community Builder and Social Manager at Pixpel.io. To be honest, this is my first time as a speaker at the Web3 Summit. She's a little nervous but very excited to be a part of the conversation. I've been with Pixpel since May 2023 and building the community has been an incredible journey. We look forward to connecting with you!
Can you tell us about the inspiration behind founding Pixpel and how its multi-platform nature works?
Pixpel's story began with a real-world challenge. In 2021, our founder, Juan Vivas, was the victim of a problem that was common in the early days of Web3: the rug was pulled out. This experience fueled his passion for building a more secure and reliable Web3 environment.
That's why Pixpel provides a secure NFT guarantee to protect your assets and bring peace of mind to our community.
But Pixpel goes beyond security. We are building an entire ecosystem that is easy to navigate and accessible to everyone. Imagine a user-friendly platform that combines Fintech, iGaming, data privacy, and compliance all in one. It's like getting a next-generation gaming console for the Web3 world, ready to take your experience to the next level.
Pixpel is known for pioneering a safe and accessible gaming experience. How does the company ensure both security and accessibility for gamers and developers within the Web3 ecosystem?
Indeed, that's a great question. At Pixpel, we believe security and accessibility are two sides of the same coin. In terms of security, we offer an unprecedented NFT guarantee system. Think of it as a safety net that protects gamers' in-game assets from scams and scams. This builds trust and allows players to focus on enjoying the game they love.
We also prioritize building on secure and established blockchains (Layer 1 Concordium blockchain and Zetachain blockchain). It leverages existing security measures that have been thoroughly tested over time. Additionally, we have implemented secure transaction protocols to further minimize the risk of hacking and fraud within our platform.
In terms of accessibility, we recognize that Web3 can be difficult to navigate for beginners. That's why we are developing a user-friendly platform that is easy to navigate even for those new to the world of Web3. Our application provides intuitive ease of use for users of all experience levels.
As a community builder and social manager at Pixpel, you'll play a key role in driving engagement and trust within our community. Can you tell us more about your strategy for building and maintaining a strong and vibrant community around Pixpel?
absolutely! As a community builder at Pixpel, it's important to us to foster engagement and trust, even before release. Transparency and open communication are at the forefront of our strategy. We regularly share updates about our vision for the future, the problems we're solving with Web3 Games, and the exciting solutions we're developing. We listen carefully to potential community needs and concerns and actively seek feedback on ideas and concepts. This two-way dialogue is essential to building products that truly resonate with the people who use them.
Creating a welcoming and inclusive environment is also important. We want Pixpel to be a place where everyone feels free to ask questions, share their opinions, and be part of something bigger. Early on, we focus on building relationships with potential users and fostering a sense of belonging. This may include online discussions, her AMA (Ask Me Anything) sessions with the founders, and even holding interactive polls and surveys to gauge interest and glean valuable insights. By engaging with potential users early and often, we're laying the foundation for a strong, vibrant community invested in Pixpel's success.
Can you share some insights into Pixpel's approach to addressing concerns surrounding security and safety in the Web3 space, specifically DeFi platforms?
Security is top of mind at Pixpel. We understand the concerns surrounding his DeFi platform and are taking a multi-pronged approach to ensuring a safe and trusted experience for our users within the Web3 space.
- Focus on established blockchains: We are carefully considering building on an established blockchain with a proven security track record. These blockchains have undergone years of rigorous testing and have robust security measures in place.
- Innovative NFT guarantee system: Pixpel offers a first-of-its-kind NFT endorsement system. This acts as a safety net for in-game assets and potentially protects users from fraud and abuse. Although still in development, the goal is to provide gamers with an additional layer of security and peace of mind.
- Secure transaction protocol: We are committed to implementing secure transaction protocols within our platform. This minimizes the risk of hacking and fraud, further protecting user assets.
It's important to note that certain features of Pixpel are still under development. However, we prioritize leveraging established technology and innovative solutions to create a safe and reliable environment. As the Web3 landscape continues to evolve, we will continue to adapt and evolve our approach.
Your background includes marketing experience at a Mexican law firm that touches on blockchain law. How has this past experience influenced your role at Pixpel, particularly in terms of compliance and regulation in his Web3 environment?
absolutely! My marketing background at a law firm specializing in Mexico actually proved invaluable in my transition to Pixpel. While there, I had considerable exposure to the emerging field of blockchain law. This provided a basic understanding of the legal and regulatory landscape surrounding this new technology.
At Pixpel, this knowledge is particularly useful when it comes to compliance and regulation within the Web3 space. The world of Web3 is constantly evolving, and the regulatory environment is still taking shape. However, my experience with blockchain law allows me to stay abreast of the latest developments and potential regulatory hurdles. This awareness helps us proactively address spatial complexity and ensure that Pixpel operates with maximum compliance.
It's not just about following the rules. Understanding regulations will also help build a more reliable and sustainable future for Pixpel and the entire Web3 gaming community.
Considering Pixpel's work, its milestones, and your experience on the front lines of compliance and blockchain law, what is the general message you would like to share during the panel discussion on ?Navigating the future: integrating iGaming, AI, fintech, advertising with compliance and data privacy” and who are the participants of the summit?
Imagine a world where safe, seamless gaming meets the power of Fintech, iGaming, and cutting-edge AI, all wrapped up in a user-friendly console for the Web3 era. That's the future Pixpel is building. But with such innovation comes the responsibility of navigating the ever-evolving world of compliance and data privacy.
At Pixpel, my legal background puts me at the forefront of these challenges. It will be interesting to see how blockchain law acts as a bridge rather than a barrier when integrating these powerful technologies. The key points I would like to share here are: Compliance is not a roadblock, but a roadmap to Web3's future prosperity.
By adopting strong compliance practices and prioritizing data privacy, we can create a safe and trusted ecosystem where everyone can enjoy the benefits of iGaming, AI, Fintech, and more. This summit is a great place to explore these ideas together. We look forward to learning from the experts and working together to build a future where innovation and responsibility go hand in hand in the Web3 space.
Mariela, thank you for the informative interview! We look forward to seeing you at the Prague Gaming & TECH Summit and hearing your valuable insights on the integration of iGaming, AI, Fintech, advertising and compliance and data privacy.
