This episode we unpack a week of retracement in the crypto market, with Bitcoin's steadfast dominance amidst a 7.0% market cap downturn. Upland ignites construction creativity during Spark Week, and U.S. Senators target crypto's illicit use with a landmark bill, aiming for a nuanced approach to regulation. The metamorphosis of Liberland from virtual concept to physical nationhood exemplifies the real-world impact of the Metaverse. Meanwhile, Elon Musk's xAI navigates the tumultuous AI funding seas, and the luxury leisure sector gets a touch of exclusivity with Street PARQ's NFT-based memberships. Closing the loop, Good Gaming's "Galactic Acres™" promises to revolutionize the mobile gaming landscape with its Web3 infusion. And as always, we’ve got a few news articles to highlight from the Meatsuitaverse. And that's the Beat for this BlockWeb week. L8R
