Web3 gaming is rapidly evolving, with voices like Mihee Park, CFO at Big Time Studios, leading the way. With experience at Zilliqa and now at Big Time Studios, Park offers a unique perspective on operational leadership in decentralized ecosystems.
At Zilliqa, Park focused on systemic risks like network security and regulatory ambiguity. Transitioning to Big Time Studios, she now deals with more granular operational risks like in-game asset inflation and marketplace behavior. The shift to gaming studios has required a focus on precision and adaptability in response to the fast-moving environment of Web3 games.
Park’s evolution as a leader reflects the changing role of CFOs in Web3. No longer just focused on cost centers and compliance, Web3 CFOs must be deeply involved in product development and understand the technology and market. Park emphasizes the importance of staying hands-on and operational in the 24/7 world of Web3.
For Park, the key to success as a Web3 CFO lies in understanding the core value of decentralization and user ownership. This mindset has guided her through roles at Zilliqa, Big Time Studios, and Open Loot, focusing on creating integrity at scale and empowering users.
As more games look towards sustainable business models, Park’s leadership offers a template for success in a space still navigating volatility. By focusing on building the infrastructure that will outlast market cycles, Park is designing the future of Web3 gaming.
In a world that often values hype over structure, Park’s approach stands out as a beacon of clarity and innovation. Her vision for the future of Web3 gaming goes beyond risk mitigation to actively shaping how games operate in a decentralized, user-owned ecosystem.
