Bitcoin pioneer Jeff Garzik’s new independent entertainment company aims to use Web3 tools to produce sci-fi entertainment.
Garzik says that with his new project, Web3 roots can come to life in the pages of cyberpunk novels. This genre can be learned from the novels Neuromancer by William Gibson and Snowcrash by Neal Stephenson. Usually the roleplay game includes era-starting titles such as Shadowrun and Cyberpunk.
According to the news in Decrypt; Garzik said he has invested $1 million of his own money to finance NextCypher and plans to launch his first television projects, Deathlands and Looking. Garzik, who just doesn’t want to stay in film and TV, wants to feature in NextCypher people experienced in the genre of production he envisions, such as Mark Altman and Thomas Vitale.
