Two YouTube executives left to join Web3 companies like Polygon

On January 26, Ryan Wyatt, YouTube's head of gaming, tweeted that he would join Polygon as CEO of Polygon Studios, which will be responsible for "bridging the gap between Web2 and Web3" and leading Polygon Studios in gaming, sports, news and entertainment. Wyatt said that "being fascinated by blockchain application development" was the reason for the departure, and he himself was very excited about entering the web3 space. In addition, Jamie Byrne, senior director of YouTube Creator Partnerships, also announced her departure on the same day, and he will join the NFT platform Bright Moments for leadership positions.

Earlier, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki said in an open letter on Tuesday that YouTube is studying NFTs to help creators monetize their content.
