This episode dives into the story of Horizon Worlds, a VR social platform that quietly crossed one million monthly active users without any venture capital funding. Lucas and Luna explore how the platform achieved this milestone through organic growth, a unique creator economy, and a focus on user-generated content. They discuss the challenges of scaling without outside investment, the platform's monetization model, and what this means for the future of social VR. The conversation also touches on comparison with Meta's Horizon Worlds and why bootstrapped platforms might have an edge in user trust.
