serious question -- why wouldn't any online subscription business that's focused on membership not move the format to NFTs?

wait until media companies learn that they can use NFTs to create a secondary market around membership, content & community.

When information is expensive and misinformation is cheap, we restrict access to what we assume to be known. The problem isn't just algorithms and platforms, it's accessibility and the business of media (subscriptions/advertising). New models should enable the discovery of truth.

everything in crypto is working towards living online; "games" are work, NFTs are assets, DAOs are cities.

feels like NFTs in music will be less about NFTing the song, and more about how NFTs can be utility around it.

Luckily he took this photo so we can share the moment with him. Phenomenal.

feels like a big web3 unlock will be taking all these incentive experiments used for coordination (DAOs) and commerce (NFTs) of collectibles and leveraging them for good; climate, government, philanthropy.

new from @darkstardao:
Most of todayβs Web3 neighborhoods are following the history of McMansions; building 10,000 βhomesβ in the middle of nowhere hoping people move in.
NFTs communities can be awesome, we just need to start building inside of them.

if crypto unlocks our ability to truly live online, we should look at every native crypto function as construction of a city (NFTs, DAOs, blockchains).

quite simply, you engage with more people online daily than you do in person. if you care about how you present physically, you will care about how you present digitally.
Thatβs NFTs.

platforms like Substack, OnlyFans, Cameo & Patreon are creating a new market indicator for individuals similar to what free agency does to athletes.
within a team/company, an individual's value is generalized
within free agency, the market dictates an individuals value

detach NFTs from $$$ and you can see it explode.
brands charging for NFTs are doing it wrong. for brands with existing customers, NFTs should be an add on-- collectable, giveaway... a benefit.

New Post: as media companies become record labels, creators become rock stars & the business changes for the better.
This is the age of the Renaissance Creator.
In the passion & ownership economy, creator's now become micro labels themselves.

crypto wallets will change how brands think about targeting customers online:
1) fully public purchase history
2) users willingness to spend money online
3) connect physical and digital purchases seamlessly
this method makes cookie targeting seem ancient.

had a blast talking DAOs, creators & media with @RaoulGMI. Some trends I'm looking forward to--
1) ETH keys/wallets as log in, status & identity
2) DAOs enabling "media companies" to be more service oriented
3) Moving from "subscribers" to "investors"
