{"content":"A New Era for The Sandbox Begins. 🧭 Major seismic shifts are happening at The Sandbox as founders Arthur Madrid and Sébastien Borget officially step back from daily operations. In a sweeping strategic realignment, the company is making bold moves: 👔 New Leadership: Robby Yung, a heavyweight from Animoca Brands, is the new CEO. 🌍Founders' New Roles: Borget becomes a Global Ambassador, while Madrid transitions to Non-Executive Chairman. 📉Deep Restructuring: Over 50% of staff are being laid off, with offices in Lyon (France) closing and cuts in Paris, Argentina, Uruguay, South Korea, Thailand, and Turkey. This isn't just a downsizing; it's a fundamental pivot. The Sandbox is signaling a move away from its core metaverse focus to embrace broader Web3 applications, including a new memecoin launch platform on Base. The message is clear: adapt or become obsolete. The bear market continues to separate the visionaries from the tourists. What's your take on this major pivot for one of the flagship metaverse projects?
