About Tilted - Tilted

Our Stories

Tilted was founded by classmates who reconnected in San Francisco after Vitalik launched the Ethereum blockchain. They started discussing the problem that Vitalik aimed to solve after the game publisher deleted his World of Warcraft player account. He lost a massive value of net worth he had invested into WOW. So, he set out to protect and own his game assets by launching the Ethereum blockchain. Apollo and Sarah discussed this problem for a few years before they decided to start building to solve the problem because they deeply cared about the problem. Apollo, being an active and casually competitive Fortnite player, and Sarah, being the original community builder of Twitch, both brought individual insights into player demand and needs, addressing the problem from a comprehensive viewpoint.

Founder Background Vision

Apollo has many valuable in-game items that sit unused. He wanted to build Liquidity pools to provide a way to put his game assets to work, generating income rather than gathering digital dust. Gaming RWAs are stuck in games, and there’s not much players can do with their game assets other than play them. He set out on a mission to provide players with liquidity options in an emerging trend of web3 that is picking up in web2 gaming, and that is RWAs. Here’s more about the challenges that ‘Tilted’ meets head-on.
