Big!
Today we are announcing that S&P Global has entered an agreement to acquire OpenZeppelin.
Onchain finance is growing from an emerging market into core financial infrastructure, and the standards and rails our team and community built are becoming the rails of global finance. OpenZeppelin smart contracts facilitated over $37 trillion in value transferred, with the vast majority of the largest DeFi protocols, blockchain networks, stablecoins and tokenized funds relying on them.
With S&P Global, we expect to accelerate the impact of onchain finance, backed by more than a century of trust in global markets, benchmarks, and risk frameworks.
To our clients and to all the users of OpenZeppelin open source tools:
• OpenZeppelin Contracts and all our open source applications and tools remain open source, free, and publicly maintained on GitHub. Building open source standards stays a core priority.
• Audits, engineering work, and ecosystem programs continue with the same team, brand, quality, and customer experience, with what will be the added benefit of S&P Global's research capacity, market data, and institutional reach.
For the last decade, OpenZeppelin has set the security standard for onchain finance. Today begins a new chapter for that mission, together with one of the most trusted names in global markets.

Conversations like these are crucial for pushing boundaries, but the real test is execution. Ideas are everywhere, yet true innovation in Africa's gaming scene will come from actionable plans and partnerships that drive growth.

I’m heading to the Games for Change Games & SDG Summit in Nairobi 🇰🇪 next week. From BIOFIN conversations to SDGs in games, my focus remains clear, building strong monetization systems for Africa’s gaming ecosystem. Africa has the talent. Now we build the systems. #gaming @G4C

One bad ad wiped out 20,000 daily active users in hours. Not because the product failed. Because the ad experience did.
In this episode, I sit down with Ezgi Dogan, a well-known monetization consultant and former engineer who works with gaming and non-gaming publishers. She sees patterns most studios never see — from deceptive-by-design creatives to algorithm changes that quietly double ad duration overnight.
And the reality is uncomfortable: publishers often think they understand their ad quality problem. The data usually says it’s worse.
This conversation is part of PlayerFirst Perspectives, a podcast series on #MobileGroove powered by @appharbr . It’s a series about fixing ad quality and building smarter ad policies so users stay in your app or game — and you can enforce what you believe is right for your players.

Great conversation with Guillaume Noé, VP of Growth at @carry1st one of the sharpest growth minds in African gaming.
We’re aligned on one thing: scaling games & esports in Africa as a real industry with infrastructure, talent pipelines, and measurable outcomes.
Africa was never “left behind.”
The audience has always been here.
What’s changing now is the structure.
Respect to Guillaume for blending creativity + analytics to build high-performing growth teams across gaming & payments.
Big thanks to Sam Pottinger for making this happen.
Momentum is real from AFCON-week esports activations to pan-African tournaments. The market is maturing.
At Chroma Pixel Games, through Esports Africa @EsportsANewsKY , we’re pushing further: helping African players & devs build brands and scalable careers.
Africa isn’t up next.
Africa is building now.

It's not even enough to start a project, even if you've got the best partner in the world.
You'll still have to learn constantly.
Experiment, fail, iterate, improve.
Many inexperienced studios think landing the right deal is all it takes for their game to catch fire. But real partnerships require 50/50 commitment. No matter how strong your partner is, if you don't bring equal energy to the table, it won't work.
Now is the time to invest in partnerships that will make you unbeatable in the long run.
Don't chase "the best" partner in general, chase the best partner for you.

💰 If you are still treating your paywall like a static screen, you are leaving serious money on the table.
That was one of the clearest takeaways from my conversation with Lanre Akinyemi, VP Growth at @Superwall . He does not talk about monetization as a moment. He talks about monetization as a system you actively design, test and refine.
This interview makes three things unmistakably clear:
◉ You need to treat your paywall like a landing page, not a one-off screen
◉ You drive conversion through timing, context and personalization, not clever pricing alone
◉ You win by compounding small changes, not waiting for one big breakthrough
There is a short moment in the clip that hints at just how much leverage sits inside the paywall once you stop treating it as an afterthought.
If you own monetization, subscriptions or revenue growth, this conversation is not optional.
