Publishing rich articles on the blockchain with Founder Shek Dev
Hear directly from the founder of wordcel.club, Shek Dev, and his wild journey building on web3. Wordcel is a publishing platform built using Solana + Arweave, a powerful combination of both accessible and robust technology. Shek's journey to building full-time in web3 is inspiring - it shows that you, yes you, can put resources out into any community and receive some great results (especially in the Arweave ecosystem!). His commitment has been aided through his involvement in SuperTeamDAO, a community and source of feedback that has proven invaluable to his efforts building in web3.
What started as a list of projects and a tweet within the Solana ecosystem, has led to Shek taking home the winning prize for the Solana Riptide hackathon (web3 category) just months after his intro entry into the community. The $50k USDC prize not only provided initial funding, it also created a significant spike in growth - there are about 1,000 individuals on the beta list.
Worldcel has big plans, and Shek's commitment to open source, decentralized, and censorship-resistance is inspiring as he and team build out what may become an integral component of the future of publishing. From an empathetic perspective on user experience (UX), and an attention to detail regarding the brand and identity, keep an eye out for what Shek and wordcel.club do next!
