Instead they seem to be wasting it on NFT and WEB3 gaming... IDK seems like a bad strategy.

Don't worry, NFT is sliding, it'll eventually die off. A lot of game designers are bored and looking for a new hammer. The same guys that have been looking for nails with blockchain on 'em for a decade. You know, I get it, it's a whole economy and payments system with no fees in what looks like a clean bundle. Problem is it's not as shiny as it looks when you start digging in to it and they're all finding that out.

I haven't looked at their Financials lately, but I was just worried they blew their resurrection gift from retail on a bunch of NFT drifters. It's been a while and I haven't seen anything come to fruition.
