Quotes:
(4:40-4:50) “We found after years of trying and testing that reward flows work the best when you can really engage your users for a long period of time.”
(8:45-9:03) “Most rewarded networks prefer the games that have a higher IP share, mostly because it means you can leverage those reward flows way better. It’s also a matter of how much money a gaming company can pay per user.”
