THNDR LEVELS UP GAMING INDUSTRY | PubKey DC

​Join us for a conversation with Desiree Dickerson of THNDR Games, where she’s helping build a new kind of gaming experience powered by Bitcoin and the Lightning Network. She’ll be joined by Taymur Khumush, a Human Capital Professional by day and a bitcoiner, lightning node operator & vibecoder by night.

​Gaming is one of the largest industries in the world, and it already understands digital competition, incentives, and marketplaces. What it has historically lacked is fast, native money. Lightning changes that by removing friction around liquidity, payouts, and trust, making real-value play possible at global scale.

​We’ll explore THNDR’s approach to skill-based gaming, her perspective on the current state of Lightning and peer-to-peer payments, and why gaming may be one of the most natural places for real money on the internet to finally make sense.
