He better name that kid Oscar

A couple weeks ago, I had the pleasure of chatting on stage with @ishank20, Elder Counsel at @KGeN_IO and @umairmasoom, Founder of @myco_io about consumer facing applications in the web3 space. To spice things up a little, we played Hot Takes: agree/disagree. Here are some of my favorite takes from these 2 legends: "If you're saying come watch because you're gonna make money, you're saying my content is shit nobody cares" - @umairmasoom "Most consumers dgaf which chain they're on, ultimately consumers shouldn't even know they're on chain" - @ishank20
