“A top-down view is: someone's going to tell me what's cool, and that's not how it works anymore. It's trickle up, where the curator is the one who builds the audience and curates what's cool.

And that's why it's really exciting: it doesn't rely on someone who has status or money to make these things reach scale.” — Gaby GoldbergWhen people talk about Web3 and the metaverse, it feels like we’re moving into a new era, one governed by new rules of ownership and interconnectivity, where we can all take part in a new economy online.
