Upcoming Event : 706 x Matters Lab Salon @ LA

Intro

Web3 has become the next buzzword entering our daily life. We need to reckon the new technologies that bring about the products that will gradually show its social impact.

What makes Web3 possible, is the blockchain technology that creates and secures digital assets. Blockchain relies on decentralization, a long-held dream of the Internet that has yet to be truly realized. We all agree that every innovation somewhat comes from the destruction of ideals. What will we witness this time? Will the final shape of decentralized network bring the next step of human consciousness, or another round of power relations?

Web3 promises a new kind of ownership, allowing users to own and control their own digital assets and data, instead of only passive users.

As creators, how do we balance our creation and livelihood? As readers, what kind of content do we want to support? As entrepreneurs, what new values can be generated by new opportunities ?

In this Salon, we invited three founders of famous Web3 projects to discuss the shape of content media in the Web3 era. Together they will share different paths into the same field, three different perspectives to examine the same ecology, and talk about the dark tide behind the bubble.
