Robby Yung, CEO of Animoca Brands, joins Thinking on Paper to discuss how Web3, gaming and decentralized identity could shift ownership of the internet back towards users.
The current web is largely controlled by platforms that own the infrastructure, data and relationships between creators and audiences. Web3 proposes a different model in which users can hold digital assets, identities and community memberships directly rather than accessing them through a single company.
In this episode, we discuss:
What digital ownership means in Web3
How decentralized identity works
Why gaming has become an important testing ground for blockchain
What Animoca Brands is building through the Mocaverse
How blockchain could reduce costs and remove intermediaries
Why creators struggle to own their audiences on existing platforms
How digital communities can share in the value they create
What happens when ownership becomes a form of participation
Whether Web3 can build a more open and user-owned internet
Robby explains how blockchain infrastructure could give creators, players and communities a direct stake in digital economies. He also examines the practical challenges involved in moving from platform-controlled access to portable identity and ownership.
This conversation is about the future of the internet, the creator economy and whether users can become participants in the systems they help build rather than remaining customers inside closed platforms.
Please enjoy the show and share it with someone interested in Web3, digital identity and online ownership.
