Web3

‘Our democracy will better evolve because of DAOs,’ says Animoca’s Yat Siu

“We are excited about Web3 because the future of work is all digital, and the resources of Web3 are data created by users. As such, we are the creators of our own equity, which provides everyone with a form of universal basic equity. Imagine if Facebook considered all of its users to be workers that provide the company with data. Well, this is what we are doing for free. We think data should be a natural right, like property, meaning users have ownership of the data they create. This will completely reshape how the digital world interacts with the physical world.” – Yat Siu

Metaverse

How the Metaverse Could Change Work

“The metaverse seems set to reshape the world of work in at least four major ways: new immersive forms of team collaboration; the emergence of new digital, AI-enabled colleagues; the acceleration of learning and skills acquisition through virtualization and gamified technologies; and the eventual rise of a metaverse economy with completely new enterprises and work roles.”
