Episode notes

At that time, I'm guessing the generative art market wasn't like a massive, massive market. So you almost have to bet on him being able to not just create a great business, but also create an entirely new industry. My view again is everything is going to end up on these ledgers. And if you can find massive networks that are starting to form around things that were previously difficult to monetize or offer a new design space for values to flow fromthings that aren't currently being monetized, then they represent those opportunities. You just got to know where to look for them.

Since 2020, the development of the Web 3 space has arguably validated the value propositions of decentralized blockchains. However, Web 3 today primarily serves crypto-natives and exists as a subset of the internet.

An up-and-coming vertical of projects known as Consumer Vertical focuses on helping empower the everyday internet user and helping Web 3 reach its fullest potential.
