Marcus Teilman, President & CEO of Fragbite Group, comments:
“As Lucky Kat continues to trailblaze at the forefront of web3 gaming, we are lucky to not only welcome a new, highly experienced CEO in Christian Batist, but also have Herdjie Zhou transition to a new position. Christian has the knowledge and capacity to take Lucky Kat to the next level, meanwhile maintaining a culture of passion for the gaming experience which we all share in Fragbite Group. Herdjie will continue to play a key role in the building of Fragbite Group’s web3 ecosystem, with special focus on the $KOBAN token. I am very pleased to see this new team form and look forward to collaborating in growing the business further.”
Herdjie Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Lucky Kat, comments:
“Lucky Kat has grown exponentially, and I am extremely proud of the games and web3 community which we have created together as a close-knit team. My partner Hernan and I founded Lucky Kat eight years ago, it is time for us to hand over the reins and I am excited that Christian Batist will take over the role as CEO. With his vast experience in the gaming industry, I am confident that Lucky Kat will continue to thrive under his leadership. I am also looking forward to remaining engaged in Fragbite Group as a Senior Advisor, focusing on the monetisation side of web3 gaming.”
Christian Batist comments:
“I am honoured for this opportunity to lead Lucky Kat, and it is an exciting new step in my career to move into web3 gaming. I have had the privilege of working with great teams, games and gamers in many countries over the course of 20+ years, and for me a common thread has always been focus on the game experience – how to design it, how to improve it, how to monetise it. I believe that blockchain technology is the solution to how the industry meets its players on a level playing field; rewarding their creativity and providing an in-game economy that is not only secure for all, but also a core part of the monetisation for developers, publishers and platform owners. I look forward to being part of this exceptional team and the Fragbite Group family.”
