@roxannriskin Question about partnering with Solid or web3c.

#FTTE

@roxannriskin @busynessgirl compares #Web3 to QR codes. A slow adoption curve is ahead, until a major event pushes them to the forefront. QR and blockchain are too weird for most folks.

#FTTE

@roxannriskin @busynessgirl One bright Forum person shares this history of the QR code:

#FTTE

@roxannriskin @busynessgirl @TheTechRabbi mentions using crypto to raise money for #Ukraine️ in 10 minutes. Honest and transparent.

#FTTE

@roxannriskin @busynessgirl @TheTechRabbi @busynessgirl thinks this is a good #Web3 use case - for nonprofit fundraising.

#FTTE

@roxannriskin @busynessgirl @TheTechRabbi What about the climate impact?

@TheTechRabbi starts with bitcoin and ethereum, the biggest electricity uses.
Mentions use of renewables in underpopulated, new Chinese cities.

#FTTE

@roxannriskin @busynessgirl @TheTechRabbi Ethereum: moving to proof of stake, which uses far less electricity.
Bitcoin should follow in a few years.

#FTTE

@roxannriskin @busynessgirl @TheTechRabbi Also, new blockchains are using other, low-power technologies.

Aimed at future development.

#FTTE

@roxannriskin @busynessgirl @TheTechRabbi @TheTechRabbi : more nonwhites than whites using blockchain for financial purposes.

#FTTE

@roxannriskin @busynessgirl @TheTechRabbi Question: how will chip shortages impact #Web3 and #IoT ?

@TheTechRabbi : many uses are now fairly low tech.
