Web3 Galaxy Brain 🌌🧠 Furqan Rydhan, Co-founder of Thirdweb
My guest today is Furqan Rydhan, co-founder of Thirdweb.
Thirdweb is a popular web3 toolkit for app developers. Thirdweb is used by big brands and indie developers to drop NFTs, enable log-in, and power decentralized games. By the numbers, in September 2023, Thirdweb had 50,000 active developers and 5 million active end-users interacting with products built atop its tools.
In this conversation, Furqan and I discuss Thirdweb's focus on app developers, and how that differentiates it from its peers. We dive into how he thinks about organizing its vast set of product offerings, and what he's learned after many years building and exiting unicorns like Bebo and AppLovin. We also talk about working with Thirdweb co-founder Steven Bartlett, and the content marketing approach he brought to the project. Finally, we touch on Furqan's venture studio, Founders Inc.
It was a pleasure chatting with Furqan whose years of experience lend him a mature perspective on startup cycles and the development of web infrastructure. I hope you enjoy the show.
