Fireside is specifically for professional creators. It’s curated. But the audience is the co-creator.
🎤@falonfatemi

I can’t emphasise enough the importance of audience participation. The whole dynamic of content creation changes.

We’re trying to create new tools that reduce the time involved to produce & present.

And, As consumers of content, we tend to get bored quickly, so finding new ways connect is critical. —🎤Mark Cuban

The hard part isn’t creating the metaverse —it’s in sustaining participation.

If you’re selling an #NFT, the first sale is not the hard sale. It’s the second sale. That’s what sustains the economy of the community.

Access to community is a trend in #web3 that can be valuable.
—🎤@falonfatemi

You can incorporate more people into what you’re doing. Using tokens, rewards, DAOs, there’s a lot of ways to incorporate community. Inclusion is powerful.

Where there’s disruption there’s opportunity. Early days of the internet were insane — projects popping up at 100 mph. That’s happening now in crypto/NFTs. There will be consolidation. We’re already starting that second level of maturity. —🎤Mark Cuban

Crypto wallets are going to change everything. If you’re a content creator and you don’t understand crypto, you’re fucked. —🎤@mcuban

It’s harder to be a gatekeeper in crypto & that’s a good thing. You can control your own destiny a lot more w/ crypto, you just have to understand it. People who understand how to integrate crypto into the creative approach are going to be ahead.
