In the 2030s the phrase 'use your NFT' will sound as old-fashioned as 'listen on the wireless' does today.

absolutely crazy that economists used to talk about the BRICS as the major emerging markets, and completely missed how significant Nigeria is
And looks so odd today to argue Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa have similar levels of economic development and potential

This was a super fun conversation - Truff is a fantastic visualiser of the space. Hopefully that comes through in the podcast and the article!

🎙️ @LordTruffington began as an NFT trader in 2020, but he's fast become one of the most influential collectors in web3.
Truff spoke with @leonasskau to discuss how he was early to @BoredApeYC, how to win with community in NFTs, & how he's building his brand as a collector 🧵👇

"The novel is dead, long live the novel."
I finally published my post about how we're witnessing the start of a storytelling revolution.
Community owned and led stories are a completely new cultural category. It's accelerated by web3, but is happening everywhere. 👇🧵
👉 Novelists are having a confidence crisis
People aren't reading so much anymore. Instead, they're online: watching, listening, playing, or posting 📖💻
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that the av. American reads 20% less than they did in 2003

strange to have come of age reading great novels of ambition, substance, & imagination (Dostoyevsky, Woolf, Joyce, Faulkner) & now find yourself praised & acclaimed for wan little husks of "auto fiction" with space between paragraphs to make the book seem longer...

Really love this quote from @rex_woodbury, "web3 is a backend revolution ... most people will never know it exists"
It's Today's Influence over at culture3.xyz
Captures so much of web3's impact – and what we're trying to exhibit at @cultureofweb3
For example, ticketing, real estate!
Lewis Capaldi had a NFT-ticketed concert last year, just because it's better

And blockchain coming for real estate too

Both of course courtesy of @eking0x, but I'm claiming credit for the puns

Web3 does two things
1. Provide an underlying layer that comes with opportunities we can barely imagine
2. Fulfil a lot of new use cases today, like ticketing (that most people might not even notice!)

expect me to begin tweeting a lot more as I jump from twitter account to twitter account

culture3.xyz launches today, as we watch artists, builders, and communities build the future of the internet — our promise to you is simply this: to tell the stories of a diverse and eclectic collection of voices, from across the globe
This is a very significant counter to my essay about niches. Ted's idea is of a 'short tail', based on the inevitability that 80% of revenues/etc is driven by only ~20% of demand. This is true, typically, and, as Ted argued, is driven by mimetic desire, the human urge to imitate
'The Long Tail' was supposed to boost alternative voices in music, movies, and books—but the exact opposite happened.
