⚡️ OVERVIEW:
A mini-deep-dive about the Light Side of the Web3 Force - ReFi (Regenerative Finance), Public Goods, Crypto Commons, Impact DAOs, and DeSci (Decentralized Science). Followed by discussion around the ways to design Web3 products that make the kind of impact that aligns with its original promise with a mini-case study on a product within the Fungible vs. Nonfungible sides of the Web3 coin (pun intended).
🥡 KEY TAKEAWAYS:
In this Lecture, you will learn:
1. Beyond the mainstream, what is Web3 really, truly, actually all about? What is happening beneath the surface of what Wall Street wants you to know and why is it important?
2. Bringing us back to the original vision of Web3 thus bringing us back to first principles and thereby helping to form some design principles for Web3 as a whole and thereby helping to push it more to the mainstream in a better way.
3. With that, we'll look at the two primary ways Web3 has had an impact already - Fungibles and Nonfungibles - and analyze a couple good examples to formulate a more holistic picture of how we might design Web3 products that aligns with its original purpose.
