Web3 is already here! Are you excited yet?

Web3 is changing the internet right now and to say it’s for the better is an understatement. A new era of how we coordinate with each other isn't on the horizon— it’s here!

Blockchain tech in the hands of very smart, normal people (not large corporations) is providing us new ways to organize, communicate and exchange value with ease in a way that’s never been available to us in human history before.

A few big things to get excited about in web3:

  • Control over your privacy and data
  • Control over your identity
  • Value is exchanged between people, not big tech
  • Say goodbye to algorithmic feed and ads
  • Say goodbye to middlemen
  • Actually own digital assets, not just perpetually rent them
  • Directly support creators that you love

The potential is limitless!

We’re still in the infancy stage of what will be a massive shift in the internet within this decade. In fact, things are moving so fast that it'll look different in just 6 months.

Right now the golden opportunity, at the very least, is to simply learn about web3 because it'll apply to almost every industry. It’s also enough to just get excited about it! If you’re up for it, start thinking about where there could be creative, financial, or even professional opportunities for you and your communities.

Please, don't sit on the sidelines.

This isn’t about missing the train because it’s already happening. This is about being an active participant or student in the creation of web3 than a passive consumer web2 has conditioned us to become.

Web2: fill big tech’s pockets by exploiting data and our attention
Web3: fill our own and, most importantly, each other's pockets with creativity and value

Right now, literally in our hands, we have an epic opportunity to create a new space where if one of us wins, we all win.
