You don't get to meet @MagnusCarlsen.
600 million people play chess. Almost none of them get within a board of the best who ever played.
On Tuesday, we changed that. We put Magnus on a stage in Hong Kong and opened the @FIDE_chess World Team Championships.
> 24 players & one @Chessnutech2022 AI across the board from him in the simul
> 4 legendary challengers who earned their shot through the Anichess bracket
> A few hundred in the room, the rest watching live and exclusive on @opensea
Some of them grew up watching this guy win world titles. On Tuesday they played him.
The day had opened hours earlier: Magnus and @ysiu chairman and co-founder of @animocabrands on stage discussing the future, @akaNemsko & @jesusislord running the room.
That is what Anichess does. We bring the Magic.
One room in Hong Kong, the whole chess world looking at it. That was us.
Thank you to everyone who showed up.
